Twenty years.
A thousand stories.

“The best EU programme! Even after 20 years, all the memories and fun we shared, especially as the first batch, are as fresh as if they happened yesterday. 2006–2008 was truly the most cherished time of my life. Thank you, VIBOT, for that!”

“Hi David, I hope you are doing good. So, it has been almost 20 yrs. If you remember me, I am from the first batch of ViBot, a student fun Pakistan. After ViBot, during this time, I did a PhD in computer vision from Aalborg Uni Denmark, worked in UK and then in a US startup in Pakistan, and now I am an Engineering Manager, leading a team of > 15 AI engineers. Vibot changed my course of life. I was an electronics engineer working in maintenance engineering and through Vibot I transitioned into computer vision and now in AI. Thanks to Vibot that I was able to ride the tide of AI. I would like to visit Le Creusot some day with my family and meet you all once again. Best regards Wajahat”

“Vibot truly transformed and shaped my life! I felt privileged to be selected from hundreds of applicants, allowing me to meet exceptionally smart, talented, and interesting people from all over the world. Through the program, I experienced diverse teaching methods, gained invaluable knowledge and skills, and immersed myself in various cultures while sharing unforgettable adventures, memories, and stories. My graduation ceremony in Le Creusot was back in 2010—hard to believe that was 16 years ago! It remains a highly memorable milestone for me. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to reconnect with that time, meet the new generations of Vibotians, and look back at one of the most fulfilling periods of my life. Thank you so much for organizing both the program and this reunion. I am truly looking forward to it!”

“A life changing experience! It opened many professional doors and I met friends for life”

“My time in Le Creusot was truly enriching, filled with great friends and unforgettable experiences.”

“<3 <3 <3”

“VIBOT allowed me to meet the greatest people ever. It not only gave me all of the technical knowledge that it comes in the formation but also changed my way of seeing the world. I'm honored of telling that I once was part of this program.”

“My journey in the ViBOT Master's program was far more than an academic experience, it became the cornerstone of my professional and personal growth. It laid the foundation for every opportunity that followed, empowering me to build a career that has taken me across countries, industries, and cultures. It is remarkable how a campus nestled in the small French town of Le Creusot could cultivate such an extraordinary environment for innovation, collaboration, and lifelong learning. Beyond the lectures and laboratories, ViBOT fostered curiosity, resilience, and a global mindset while bringing together brilliant minds from every corner of the world. The knowledge I acquired, the unforgettable memories I created, and the inspiring friendships I forged continue to shape who I am today. Looking back, I realize that this humble campus was not merely a place of study, it was the birthplace of ambitions, the catalyst for countless achievements, and the beginning of a journey that continues to unfold around the world. For that, I will always be deeply thankful.”

“My best two years of life, that changed everything professionally and personaly. Would love to see everyone again.”

“6 years already! VIBOT has given an incredible experience, in just two years of M.Sc. Thank you, Université Bourgogne Europe! Internship at LAAS-CNRS was amazing experience too. Currently, I am working as a PhD Candidate at Universidade de Coimbra, with experts in field robotics. VIBOT unlocked many opportunities besides the knowledge sharing.”

“A wonderful and remarkable experience to grow and thrive”

“Don’t trust a fart, sometimes it is shit. Embrace the unstructured wilderness of life and code alike: where robots trip over obstacles and souls whirl in divine frenzy, let your algorithms dance like dervishes, humbly fusing noisy visions into truth, for the Beloved hides in every glitch, turning stumbles into ecstatic flight. Viva la ViBOT.”
