Bc. Eliška Šestáková
I’ve been with FIT for almost ten years. I‘ve taken a bachelor study programme and a master’s study programme, and now I’m looking forward to completing my PhD studies. When I was 18 years old and thought over what I was going to study, FIT was a clear choice for me. Not that I’d been one of those children that wrote programs and assembled computers from the age of three. On the contrary. I didn’t understand computers too well. That was what attracted me, and I made up my mind to show everyone that girls and engineering can go together, it‘s nothing exotic. Originally I came to FIT with the idea that I’d study computer graphics. But after the first year, I found out that algorithms and their complexity are nearer to my heart! So Theoretical Informatics was the profile that I chose, and that’s where I still am today. I gained a distinction in this field in my bachelor studies, and then in my master’s studies, and now I’m finishing off my PhD. Since 2018, I’ve been working as an assistant professor in the department of theoretical informatics. That means I’ve also been able to see university studies from a different viewpoint, as a teacher. I always like learning new things, and even more I like to think over how best and most clearly to pass my knowledge on to others. I’ve written two sets of study notes for university students, and I’ve set up the study successfully project, in which I share my experience about studying.
