    The effort to take those shots (especially the ones you were walking, pretty sure it's an effort to record them on your own), really well made. I hope you can continue creating these types of vids here.

    I'm afraid that I may not be the right person to answer your question, as I'm not a bachelor's student. However, here is some generic advice I can offer. CS at EPFL is probably one of the best CS programs. It will teach you strong foundations and give you the chance to branch out into many other fields later (if you want). Having knowledge of Python is already a great plus, and familiarity with C++ is also beneficial, as there are many students who know only Matlab, even at the master's level (which isn't bad, but companies are more eager to see experience with languages like Python, etc). Keep in mind that it's a top school and admission may be quite competitive. Definitely worth a try. Though, I can't say too much about the bachelor's program, don't be shy to shoot your department an email with any questions (I did it several times).

    hey i am currently in my first year of bachelor in computer science at EPFL. Firstly if you want to do CS studies , yes take this bachelor (or you can take System of communication , both are exactly the same the first year and at the end of first year you can change) Secondly , for theses bachelor you don't need knowlegde in CS before begining, they start from 0. Btw in most other bachelor at epfl you study the C++ the first year, but in computing you study Java. (ofc knowing a few basics first helps) And to finish i see that you asked for the price of the food, here on the compus if you want to eat at the canteens or food trucks it's about 8-10 fr. Personnaly like a lot of people i bring food i have cooked myself.

    @kcnl2522 Hey! I'm not really sure that one can. For most students, there is a 15 hour limit per week for work in the industry; you will be allowed to work only part time if you're taking courses. However, it's sometimes not the case for work in a lab. Also, students often take a 6 month break to do an internship and then go back to studies

    Check this resource out: www.epfl.ch/education/studies/en/financing-study/ You should also keep in mind that it depends heavily on the person. The main spending per month typically goes on housing and food. The housing options vary depending on location, type (room, studio, flat), and whether it's only for students (like dorms) or private. The same goes for food. You may cook for yourself or often eat in cafes. Some people can spend around the number on the website alone on food, but I knew a pair who spent only around half as much for two. It depends on many factors: if you eat a lot of meat, dairy, and sweet stuff, which are typically more expensive. Again, the choice of shops matters. Aldi and Lidl are considered to be cheaper. Migros is slightly more costly but the quality seems to be notably better, imho. Coop is next but usually has a wider range of veggies and stuff.

    great job editing. IMO you could totally lose the content where you are getting out of bed and etc. it's just uninteresting. everyone gets out of bed. we know what it looks like. it'd be much better to focus on what distinguishes you from others like your studies.
