PROJECTS

Traineeship – 2022
The grant for an internship at Deltares company, Netherlands, was awarded in June 2022. This internship starts in Sep 2022 and stands for three months. Gaining knowledge of working with triaxial, DSS, and CDSS devices and PLAXIS are the initial objectives of this work package.

Supervisors:
Maria Konstantinou, Deltares
Yaser Jafarian, Deltares

Erasmus Plus Grant Outside Europe – 2022/2023
This application was awarded the grant in July 2022. It will bring long-term cooperation between the University of Iceland and the University of Colorado Boulder.

Supervisors:

“Great changes may not happen right away, but with effort even the difficult may become easy.”

The past years prove my enthusiasm for programming and geotechnical engineering.
