Empowering AI in Education and Uniting Disciplines for Innovation

AI Innovation in Education: With AI technologies like ChatGPT and Copilot transforming education, I advocate for their responsible use to improve our learning. I aim to integrate these tools to enrich our studies, maintain our lead in innovation, and ensure academic integrity.

Boosting Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Given the growing need for interdisciplinary skills, I intend to strengthen our faculty's interdisciplinary focus. This includes organizing joint events, promoting society involvement, and encouraging extracurricular activities to build a knowledge-rich culture that spurs innovation and creativity across fields.

Experienced Leadership for Continuity: Drawing on my 2 years of experience as an Electrical and Electronic Engineering course rep and Vice Chair of the IEEE QUB student branch, I plan on improving student engagement via closing the feedback loop i.e. better staff involvement, use of announcements showcasing student feedback, etc.

Futuristic and Inclusive Vision: My goal is to make the EPS faculty a hub of inclusivity, ensuring that every voice is heard and amplified. I plan to use open dialogues to turn our discussions into effective tools for positive change, leading to concrete actions. Your support is crucial for creating a connected, forward-thinking, and supportive academic environment. Together, we can achieve outstanding success, demonstrating that our collective potential is limitless.
