In my graduate studies at the [https://www.math.upatras.gr/en/ Mathematics] department pretty much was the place where I became the closest I could become to a mathematician. I remember [https://thalis.math.upatras.gr/~kiordan/ Kosmas Iordanidis] that introduced me to a facet of Numerics that I've never seen before, from the book of [https://mirtitles.org/2012/12/26/computational-mathematics-demidovich-maron/ Demidovich]. [https://www.math.upatras.gr/el/people/ex/past/ Panagiotis Alevizos] that introduced us to Computational Geometry from [https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4612-1098-6 Preparatas' and Shamos'] pretty difficult to digest book. Thankfully Shamos' PhD thesis  was an excellent read, and after creating a group study to pass this class and with the help of my dear friend and pretty bright young mathematician, TaiPanagiotis G., I managed to pass the class the 3rd and last time I gave the exam, just before got kicked out. [https://www.math.upatras.gr/el/people/grapsa Theodoula Grapsa] that introduced us to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_arithmetic Interval Analysis] and Numerical Optimization. [https://www.math.upatras.gr/el/people/ragos Omiros Raggos] introduced me to Mathematical Logic and Prolog, and also gave me the opportunity to learn C++ by introducing during our computer labs sessions the undergraduate students of the department to the practical aspects of the language, the GNU/Linux console, the g++ compiler etc. I even have created a [http://student.math.upatras.gr/~milia/ website] for the logistics of the labs and to share useful material with my students there. Surprisingly enough, the website is still live four years since 2017. My final project was on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_learning_(machine_learning) Active Machine learning] and my supervisor was [https://www.math.upatras.gr/el/people/sotos Sotos Kotsiantis].
