Elected

As an active member of UCLES, having learned directly from the current committee, I’ve gained first-hand insight into the range of opportunities the society offers. In particular, the numerous career-focused events and projects have been key to furthering my understanding of the number of different paths open to engineering graduates. Therefore, with my aspiration to further grow the society so that many more can benefit, bringing forth bigger and better initiatives will be of utmost importance.

As Engineering Projects Executive, I will strive to:

  • Create more industry-led opportunities:

Utilising the leadership and networking skills gained as the CFO for a student-led start-up in sixth form, I plan to work closely with both the sponsorship and events teams to increase industry partnerships through several hackathons, career fairs and office visits, offering greater exposure for our members to a wide range of companies.

  • Bring forth fresh and exciting ideas:

Through leveraging existing connections, I intend to organise termly alumni-focused events including fireside chats and career panels, offering alumni the informal opportunity to impart key advice and discuss their career journeys since they were once in our shoes.

In short, UCLES has contributed massively to my university experience, and I would be honoured to help lead the direction of the society’s projects and initiatives for the year ahead.

Together, let's continue growing our projects into real career pathways!
