Description
At the end of the studies each of us is confronted with the ultimate decision: academic career or industry? The path may lie somewhere in between the two. After my studies on Raman scattering in high-temperature superconductors, I decided to get closer to “real-word problems” and started my career in industry. Beginning as R&D project manager, I worked in different fields, from the design of superconducting magnets to the development of optical sensors. After ten years in industry I decided to join the Zurich University of Applied Sciences to work on applied research in collaboration with industrial partners, in a position bridging the gap between the two worlds.
