Election post
Hi everyone!
My name is Eva, and I am one of the Vice-Presidents at MedTech UCL. I am running for Technology Officer for the 2025/26 academic year because of my commitment to ensuring that we continue to offer the best tech-related opportunities at MedTech UCL.
This academic year, I secured sponsorship from DataCamp to provide 25 MedTech members with a free full membership to this platform for a year through the DataCamp Donates scheme. If elected, I will continue to develop this scholarship programme, increasing the number of memberships available, and organising events for our DataCamp Scholars to ensure everyone makes the most out of the programme.
Some of the other things I have in mind to improve the tech-related provision of the society are:
- 💻 More coding workshops, building on our existing and successful current coding workshop series. I want to expand the curriculum to include other topics (such as computer vision) as well as different expertise levels. I also hope to increase the number of sessions in each of the series to ensure that by the end of a workshop series, everyone is truly confident.
- 💡Hackathons and competitions, as I truly believe that the best way to learn coding is by building cool things. From small in-class coding competitions, to hackathons with industry partnerships, I want to provide hands-on opportunities for everyone to show off their coding abilities.
- 🌐 Industrial and academic tech partnerships to increase tech-related career opportunities.
