Dear students,
I am writing to you to explain who I am, my intentions for the School of Engineering, why I should be elected, and objectives that would be worked upon throughout the year.
Starting with a brief introduction, I am a student undertaking the Mechanical Engineering (Aerospace) course. I have had the experience of working on various projects – from local to international- and they have impacted the community or audience involved.
I have a vision for the School, its courses and its members - gradually making it one of the best courses in the world. My manifesto is a compilation of my intentions for the school, and they have been stated below:
1. Improved communication between staff and students.
2. Cross-department collaboration for scientific research.
3. Improved efforts towards ensuring employment & industrial experience.
4. Introduction of practical-based course content and potential field trips.
5. Integration of clubs and societies as student bodies of departments.
Now, one question remains – why me? My past experiences as a Student Ambassador and external auditor would allow me to understand your needs, thus making me a suitable candidate for being the lead academic representative of the school without any bias for a particular course. My involvement in different research and technical projects has allowed me to foster good relations with different staff members within the school and the Faculty itself. I can assure you that these are the words of a student who is passionate about change and not a politician.
