I'm currently in my final year (fifth) at Polytech Nice in France, where I'm specializing in water engineering. Drinking water supply is a field I'd like to work in.

I did a BTS in water management for two years before joining Polytech. 

I spent an ERAMUS semester abroad in Rome, ITALY. This experience enabled me to gain valuable knowledge of water management practices.

I really enjoy meeting and working with new people. For me, Hydroeurope represents an excellent opportunity to work with people from different cultures, all united by a common passion: hydraulics.

For me, the water business is a business of the future.

Hello everyone, I'm Laetitia BONNET, a French student enrolled in the EUROAQUAE master's program. I was born in 2001 near Paris, and I grew up in the southeastern part of France, not too far from Nice. After high school, I pursued a bachelor's degree in Geography and Land Use Management in Lyon, where I got the opportunity to embark on an Erasmus exchange in Norway. This experience fueled my desire to continue living and studying abroad, leading me to dive into this master's program. Right now, I'm drowning in my computer working on Hec Ras, Hec Hms and R. The chill moments are made to travel and visit around, run, read and sleep.

My professional interests revolve around expanding my knowledge and skills in hydraulics and hydrology. I aim to apply these competencies across various water-related domains, particularly in flood risk management and water quality treatment.

In this year of Hydro-Europe, I am happy to work on the Spanish catchment, La Tordera, among the Team 4 participants.

I’m Lucie DA SILVA from Nice university. I was born in 2000 in a small city located just next to Switzerland.  

After the high school diploma, I did an advanced technician diploma in urban water management for 2 years and then, a scientist bachelor in hydrogeology in Avignon. I decided to continue my studies in Polytech Nice University to become an engineer by apprenticeship because I wanted to gain more skills in urban water and take more responsibilities. I work for the SUEZ company alongside my studies in Polytech. 

Now, I’m more interested in business management so I will continue next year with a master’s degree specializing in profit center management.

Hello everyone! My name is Chih-Hao Hsu, and I hail from Taiwan. I hold a Bachelor's degree and my first Master's in Marine Environment and Engineering from National Sun Yat-sen University. Currently, I am pursuing a Master’s in Water Resources Engineering with a focus on the morphodynamics of the Scheldt Estuary.

Skills:

Programming Languages: Proficient in Python, MATLAB, Fortran, and Google Earth Engine (GEE).

Software Tools: Experienced in using QGIS, SWAT+, and MIKE11 for various environmental and engineering applications.

In my leisure time, I enjoy urban exploration and traveling across Europe to experience its diverse cultures and landscapes.

I'm Gerardo KPODEKON, a Hydroprotech master's student from Benin enrolled in WaterEurope's master's program, and it's a great pleasure for me to take part in this program with you around the Spanish watershed ''Tordera''. I'm 28 years old and was born in Benin, a small country in West Africa, where I obtained my bachelor's degree in hydraulics and sanitation. I'm currently doing a work-study program at Antea Group France.

My professional interests include perfecting my skills in the field and working in a design office as a river hydraulics and floodplain management engineer.

In my spare time, I like to play soccer with my friends or watch matches on TV, watch films and go to the gym to improve with my friends.

My expertise lies in hydraulic modelling using HEC-RAS and TELEMAC software as well as project management and follow-up.

I'm Chaimae SANATI from Morocco, born in 1996. After finishing high school in math in 2014, I studied Rural Engineering for five years at the Hassan II Institute of Agronomy and Veterinary Medicine in Rabat.

Afterwards, I worked for two years as a Project Engineer in Morocco, focusing on irrigation projects. Currently, I'm pursuing a Master's in Hydroprotech at the University of Nice and working at Veolia Nice. My role involves preparing summaries for bid documents and helping write technical responses.

Excited to be part of this group Hydroeurope and looking forward to learning and sharing with you all.
