Vote Mohammad Burhan #1 Student Officer Education
Hey, I am Burhan, I am a Doctoral Researcher in Aerospace Engineering under ACRG (Advanced Composites Research Group) in SMAE (School of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering). I am working on “Multi-scale computational modelling/mathematics of low-velocity impact damage”, currently implementing this theory on FRP composites. I am the first person in my family to become a researcher and go to university and complete masters. Since being here I’ve been elected as Postgraduate Demonstrator. Now, I want to use this broad experience to stand as your student officer education.
Education and university degree are not same, there could a person with doctorate and still be dumb. If elected I pledge to impart the insight and reality of education. I want to create a union culture that better supports, celebrates and recognises the work of our multidisciplinary students, our society presidents, and our student media managers.
We often misunderstand education with degree, I want to impart and be involved in making and delivering quality education rather than just graduating with a paper with no insight. With my experience, passion and progressive policies, I know that I am the right candidate to be your student officer education.
If elected I will...
