Who Am I?
I'm Mahdy M., a master's student in Electrical Communication Engineering at the University of Kassel, focusing on communication systems, applied electromagnetics, and computational modeling.
My journey began with a Silver Medal in Iran's National Physics Olympiad, which earned me recognition from the Iran National Elites Foundation. Since then, I've been fascinated by the intersection of mathematics, electromagnetics, and software — pursuing projects that bridge theory, simulation, and real-world engineering.
I'm currently seeking a funded master's thesis (2026) opportunity in Germany or Europe that aligns with my research interests in 5G/6G systems, optimization, and electromagnetic design.
