ESA title

Cecilia Peccolo

Trainee

I’m Cecilia, born in Italy in 2000, and I am a passionate data scientist fueled by a deep love for innovation, technology, and sustainability. My academic journey has been both dynamic and enriching, leading me to six universities across Europe for various cultural exchanges and collaborative projects. After earning a bachelor’s degree in Statistics for Technologies at the University of Padova, I pursued a double degree in Data Science at the Polytechnic University of Madrid and the University of Trento. During this time, I honed my skills in machine learning, computer vision, and data analysis.

Throughout these two years of graduate studies, I realized how data can power innovative solutions. To feed my curiosity for innovation and learn how to create meaningful impact, I actively engaged in several initiatives: I completed a 30-credit minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship, participated in a Summer School organized by the University of Rennes focused on developing AI tools for sustainable solutions, and won first prize at the EIT Business Challenge hosted by the University of Cluj-Napoca.

This passion for technology, innovation, and sustainability has led me to ESA’s Φ-lab, where I am thrilled to apply my expertise in data science to the field of Earth Observation. Here, I aim to leverage my knowledge and experiences to create a positive impact by combining innovation and technology to address real-world challenges and inspire meaningful change.
