Together, We Build a Future You Deserve.
Hey Everyone!
I’m Shaafia, a first-year student doing Business Management with Placement in the Queen’s Business School. I have previously stood as ‘House Representative’ during my schooling years and taken on many leadership roles in projects and assignments, where our group did end up making an impact on our audience.
Why am I Standing for This Position?
I am standing for this position to ensure that students’ needs come first. I believe we deserve more than theory. Every single one of us deserves a relevant and practical learning experience that will truly prepare us for the careers we’re working towards. As your student rep, my main goal would be to implement activities and learning that will make every employer look at you and say it out loud – I WANT YOU!
What Will I Do If Elected?
- Build a More Inclusive and Supportive Community – I want to create regular feedback sessions, improve student-staff communications, and make our school more of a community.
- Preparing for Careers and Real World Success – Networking events to connect with real industry professionals, more focus on practical learning through internships and real-world projects, and workshops that will guide you through CV writing and interview techniques.
- Encouraging and Providing Chances for Initiatives – I aim to conduct more student-led initiatives that will enhance skills such as collaborative thinking and problem-solving while giving you a guided experience of how the professional world might treat you.
- Improve Our Course Content – Being a part of our student community, it allows me to see exactly where the learning becomes disengaging. I will collaborate with faculty to modernize our course content and diversify our assessment methods beyond just exams and essays.
Why vote for me?
Because I care about making a difference and taking real actions. I stand here for YOU. Your ideas, your opinions, your comfort. I stand here as not a staff at a university, but rather a friend who is ready to make you feel appreciated, worthy, and like you matter. Because you do.
