ECOPs and numerical modeling
Show notes
During this weeks episode, we are meeting you on a personal note, talking about our educational
backgrounds and paths to become ECOPs. Why did we choose to study the marine environment?
How did we manage so far? And what are we planning to do next? We will share some experiences
on how to find master thesis topics and funding for research internships abroad. And yes, we go
there: we will share how we describe numerical modelling to our families, and how models can be
very cool! A tiny spoiler: this won’t be the last time you hear us talk about them.
