I am Mahedi Hasan (Nick Name: Sajib). Currently, I am pursuing bachelor’s degree in International Computer Science at Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule (OTH) Regensburg, Germany.  I am a DAAD STIBET Scholarship Awardee. I am currently working at Schaeffler as Technical Regulations Research Intern. I previously wotked at some big-size tech and automotive companies such as Rockwell Automation, and KynDryl. I passed my Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) exam from Narsingdi Govt. College, Bangladesh in 2012. 

I was born in Dhaka Cantonment, one of the popular areas of Dhaka City. I started my primary education in Dhaka Cantonment,  but I completed my Secondary and Higher Secondary School education in my village. I shifted to Narsingdi Sadar in 2010, immediately after passing my SSC exam.

I passed the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) in 2010 and the Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) exam from Narsingdi Govt. College in 2012. I got a chance to get admitted to one of the top-ranked public universities in 2013 but did not get admitted because the listed subjects were not in my preference. In January 2015, I got admitted to a private university to pursue my bachelor’s in Computer Science and Engineering. After being admitted to the university, I was looking for better opportunities and trying to go abroad for higher studies. I applied to the University of Vienna, Austria in 2015. I got an admission offer for the bachelor’s in Computer Science in German medium (With a 1-year preparatory course + German language course) in July 2015. Soon after I applied for the visa (long-term residence permit study) in December 2015 and got approval in February 2016.  Between March 2016 and September 2021, I had a bumpy ride. I went through a lot of hardships but I never gave up. At last, in October 2021, My journey starts again from the beginning. I started my bachelor’s again at VSB – Technical University of Ostrava on 13 September 2021 and here I enrolled on 26 July 2021. Prior to starting my bachelor’s at VSB – Technical University of Ostrava I was a student of several universities in Bangladesh between January 2013 and April 2021. In October 2023, I moved to Germany to finish my bachelor's degree at Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule (OTH) Regensburg, Germany.

In my spare time, I enjoy travelling and hanging out with my family and friends. I also write about higher studies, careers, and other relevant topics on various blogs.

Let me share some lessons my life has taught me

Among our batchmates, perhaps I was the first person who took the risk/challenge against everyone to walk on the uncertain path. But it’s not always easy to walk on the path less traveled at all.

  • Do what you love, love what you do.
  • Only your results are rewarded, not your efforts.
  • Sometimes everything does not happen as one’s own wish but teaches new lessons that help to develop oneself. So, try to learn from failure or mistakes.
  • Don’t fade away from your goal even if you fail, rather change your approach and try another approach.
  • Perform seriously when you’re performing.
  • Sometimes your luck matters much more than your performance.
  • Strength doesn’t come from winning, Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, That is strength.
  • Take risks; Never Give Up, and keep trying until you reach your goal.
  • I believe Success depends on determination, persistence & dedication.
  • Grit is one of the powerful weapons that helps you to be successful.
