Meet Andres Herrera, a current master’s student at the University of Turku and an UTUambassador 2025-2026!
"Hello, my name is Andres Herrera, I’m originally from Mexico, and I came to UTU drawn to Finland’s unique approach to academics and the low corruption in the country. I chose to study statistics due to my interest in probability and predicting the future. Statistics is behind all advanced machine learning models, data, and anything you can think of.
Outside of school I like to play football, hit the gym, and dance at parties with my friends. Alone I like to walk around the city, explore nature, and sometimes find a cozy spot to read a good book.
In the future I hope to eventually start my own real estate business and fund philanthropic ventures with my spare time/income."
