During her Erasmus Traineeship period (2023), Syifa Hasanah was a recent graduate from Nicolaus Copernicus University, Poland with her Master’s studies in Cognitive Science. Previously, she pursued her Bachelor’s at Bandung Institute of Technology, Indonesia. She is keen to contribute in the area which brings goodwill to people. Yet, her priority is in healthcare and education. She perceives the Product field, especially in Product Management, as her tool to take action. She believes the field has a higher control to make ideas happen. Therefore, she proposed to improve CAS SEE’s digital platform to make the voices of the centre echo further. She embraces opportunities to connect and offer assistance to others whenever possible. She attempts to be active on her WordPress and is reachable on her LinkedIn.
