Nicolas Bataille
Élève en L3 CMI Informatique à Avignon Université
Passionné d’informatique depuis ma plus tendre enfance, faire mes études dans ce domaine était un choix plus qu’évident pour moi, et rejoindre le CMI est une manière de valoriser d’autant plus mon cursus scolaire.
Si j’ai décidé de rejoindre le CMI, c’est avant tout dans l’objectif de pouvoir approfondir mes capacités d’innovations, ainsi que de développer une culture de la recherche qui me sera utile pour mon avenir professionnel.
Passionné de développement d’applications, de jeux-vidéos et de montage de claviers mécaniques, je m’initie actuellement dans le domaine du Machine Learning au travers de divers formations en ligne ainsi que dans mon cursus Erasmus afin de pouvoir ensuite approfondir mes connaissances dans le vaste domaine qu’est l’IA, un domaine plus qu’important dans notre formation CMI.
On me fait souvent remarquer que mon trait de personnalité qui ressort le plus est mon humour au timing irréprochable à (presque) chaque situations.
Je suis également en 2ème année d’une formation sur 2 ans en Entrepreneuriat, le D.U. Entrepreneuriat à Avignon Université, ayant pour objectif de former à la gestion et la création d’entreprises en acquérant toute les bases nécessaires concernant l’aspect légal, économique et social.
J’effectue actuellement un Semestre d’étude Erasmus à Swansea University, au Pays de Galles, dans le cadre de notre formation CMI.
Pour mon avenir :
C’est assez compliqué de prévoir autant à l’avance ce que l’avenir me réserve, mais après m’être intéressé à divers domaines de l’informatique, il me paraît évident qu’une voie dans l’Optimisation, la Gestion de Données et plus globalement le Machine Learning soient la plus intéressante pour moi.

My journey at Swansea University
The 8th of September was the big day for me. The day I left France for the United Kingdom, the day I took the plane for the first time in my life, the day I made my parents cry as I passed the gates of the airport. I would be lying if I said that I didn’t have some tears in my eyes, but this journey would not be so long after all, especially with my friend and colleague whom I left my country with.
When our plane landed in the London Heathrow Airport, we had a few hours to kill before having to take the train to Swansea, but we had our heavy luggages with us so we just took a Subway sandwich and waited in the train station. Overall, our trip from Marseille to Swansea took us the whole day with some misadventures. We had to take a cab with a shady driver from Swansea’s train station to our accomodations at Bay Campus because of the terrible bus lines here, our packages that we ordered weeks ago containing bed sheets and kitchenware weren’t here, every grocery store were closed and so on.
You could say that we had a nice welcoming day in the United Kingdom.
The first weeks
My building was really quiet the first week, as no other students arrived yet before me, so the nights were quite calm.After a few days of acclimating to our new home, we had the occasion to meet some students living in the same accomodation block as us, and we were quite surprised at the diversity of nationalities here : Cyprian, Indian, German, Arabian (and French of course). We got allong pretty quickly as the nights at the campus’ pub went on.
We had many occasions to visit the campus, explore the city centre and even swim in the sea, but not for so long as the water is as cold as a pool water in winter.
Overall, the first few days here went by pretty fast, and we didn’t even have the time to visit the country as much as we wanted, but I definitely know that we will have some occasion to do some trip around the region, our international coordinator here even recommended us many beaches and other beautiful places to visit during our sojourn here.
And to end this article on a highnote, here is a small overview of my daily view in my room !
