Win Thawdar's Story My first encounter with coding was during my second year at my previous university, which I had to pause due to issues in my country. At that time, I was majoring in Electronic Engineering, so the course didn't focus deeply on coding. However, once I experienced the joy of seeing my code work properly after intense brainstorming and countless trials and errors, I became addicted to coding. I asked my instructor for additional exercises, regardless of whether they were part of our coursework, and I worked on them whenever I had free time. Unfortunately, because my major was Electronic Engineering, I couldn't continue focusing on coding after that course. In 2020, I had to pause my formal education due to the pandemic and political issues in Myanmar. During this time, I completed several MOOCs in coding, but most were basic, leaving me stuck at an introductory level for a long time. In 2023, I decided to resume my Bachelor's degree at KMITL with a scholarship, now studying Computer Engineering. I'm enjoying it more than ever because I now have the opportunity to do much more coding officially.
