HE/HIM

B MECHATRONICS ENG (HONS)

Why this role?

I want students to get the best experience out of their degrees, to help solve any difficulty they might have in their Academics and to support them by being a mentor.

My Experience

I have gained experience through my work as the International Students’ Senate Convenor at UNSA this year. Being a second year Mechatronics Engineering Representative at the engineering forum has given me experience at representing students in my degree.

Through my work as a member of iLEAD, I have improved my ability to mentor students and help them maintain a healthy work-life balance throughout their degree.

I understand the potential questions that a student can have regarding their Academics.
After working at the AskUON I am familiar with different academic support teams at the university, e.g., the program advice.

What do you hope to achieve for UON Students?

Make time to hear from the UON student body on how I can improve their academic experience.
Help students connect with potential employers through expos and increase the support available to students who have Placements and WIL as a part of their degree.
Raise awareness of and engagement with existing learning support within the student body, and support students to confidently access learning support by making it MORE approachable.
