Hi everyone, 

I’m Harshavardhan and I'm running to be president of the Data Science Society for 2023-2024. 

Having served as FYR for the research division this year, I have developed a nuanced understanding of its functioning. I now feel confident and ready to take on a new challenge by learning to manage all other domains of the society as well, including sponsorship, events, science and marketing. 

In addition to my hands-on experience with the research department, some of my additional skills include: 

  • Sound networking skills: With a large LinkedIn network consisting of individuals from all over the globe, I would be able to publicise the DSS whilst also bringing in sponsors and event speakers.
  • Leadership experience and teamwork skills: Having served as president of my school’s Economic Honours Society, I know how to lead and collaborate with others to achieve desired outcomes. 
  • The ability to hear all voices: As course representative for BSc Computer Science for 2022-2023, I have resolved several issues by serving as an intermediary. This skill would allow me to take on everyone’s ideas and perspectives to help the DSS reach new heights. 

My main goal, if elected, would be to help optimise the output of the DSS to fit different audiences, ensuring there is something for everyone:

  • Those with pre-existing, sound knowledge of data science
  • Those at an intermediate stage of their journey
  • Those looking to enter data science/ casual listeners

Vote Harshavardhan!
