About Myself!

Hello everyone!

My name is Laki, and I am from Bangladesh. I am a passionate and driven master’s student specializing in Advanced Materials & Innovative Recycling (AMIR), an EU-supported program under the Erasmus initiative. I have completed my first year at Masters of Material science and Engineering from NOVA School of Science and Technology (NOVA FCT) – University of Lisbon. Currently I am doing my second year, Masters of Circular Economy_ Priorities construction Materials at Technical University of Madrid (UPM). I have gained extensive knowledge in recycling, circular economy, and sustainability principles.Throughout my academic journey, I have developed strong expertise in materials recycling, waste-to-energy projects, carbon capture and storage (CCS), construction and demolition (C&D) recycling, sustainable product design, and packaging. My studies, paired with professional experience in entrepreneurship and sustainability management, have prepared me to make meaningful contributions to the recycling and sustainability sectors. I am very happy to connect with you, All!

Objective:I am actively seeking a challenging and dynamic internship or thesis project that aligns with my background in materials recycling, waste management, and sustainability. I am open to working in various environments, from urban centers to remote locations, and am eager to apply my knowledge to impactful projects that drive sustainable innovation.

Introducing myself: Shouvik Bhadra

Hi, I’m Shouvik Bhadra, a curious soul from the vibrant land of Bangladesh. I completed my bachelor’s in Leather Products Engineering from University of Dhaka. My focus was on chemistry and applied chemistry, which gave me a solid understanding of materials and how they work. But as I learned more, I realized I wanted to do something bigger—something that could help the planet.

That’s when my journey took a major turn. Moving to Europe to pursue an Erasmus Mundus master’s in Advanced Materials and Innovative Recycling has been one of the biggest milestones of my life. It’s been exciting and challenging to adapt to a whole new culture, but it’s also been a time of growth.

I’m particularly interested in sustainable materials for energy applications and finding ways to give waste a second life. Recycling and waste valorization aren’t just technical topics for me—they’re ideas that could change how we live.

Outside of academics, I enjoy cooking and exploring new cuisines. Food has a way of connecting people, and I love experimenting with recipes inspired by the places I visit. Traveling has also been a big part of my journey so far, and every trip teaches me something new about the world and myself.
