My name is Md. Ikbal Hasan, and I moved to Italy in 2023 after receiving a fully funded scholarship to pursue my Master’s degree at the University of Trento, one of the top universities in the country. Currently, I’m in the final semester of my program and looking forward to completing this important chapter of my academic journey.

Coming directly from Bangladesh, I experienced the full cycle of being an international student — from adapting to a new education system and learning the local language to building a life in a new country. Over time, I’ve become very familiar with the Italian lifestyle, culture, and student ecosystem.

Now, having settled in Italy, I feel confident in guiding others who want to follow a similar path. Whether it’s about getting scholarships, choosing the right university, or understanding the visa and settlement process — I’m here to share what I’ve learned through real experience.
