The 2nd edition of E2TOP, or Excellence in Engineering: Talents in Research with Opportunities Programme, is underway. It offers the opportunity for individual development to talented TUL students, who, under the supervision of a mentor, carry out their research project. In the following interviews, we will present the participants of E2TOP. The first one is Anna Walczak, a student of Automation and Robot Control, designing interactive jewelry.
