RODRIGO, PAMODA

1) Why are you researching or studying at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar?

I chose Bauhaus-Universität Weimar because it is a unique place where art, design, and technology meet. I  wanted to study in a space that encourages creativity, freedom, and collaboration. As a masters student of Digital Media for Computer Science, I get to explore new technologies while also thinking about people and  experiences. The international and open atmosphere here helps me grow both as a person and as a  researcher.

3) What characterises your voluntary commitment in Weimar?

Since coming to Weimar, I have joined several volunteer activities that helped me connect with others and  be more involved in student life. I worked as a member in the Student Council of the Faculty of Media (FsR M). It was a great way to support other students, help organize events, and represent student voices. I also helped  organize the Freshers’ Week 2024 for our faculty and volunteered at the SpaceKidHeadCup 2024, which was a fun event for children and families. These experiences made me feel more at home in Weimar and gave me a  chance to give back to the community around me.
