Why vote for Ebenezer Kaisha?
As a part 1 Mechanical Engineering course rep this past year, I noticed that most of the changes made to the issues we had would be implemented into the next year, by the upcoming engineering students. The addition of a CAD lecturer is such a change that was made to the first-year program but will only affect the incoming students in the next academic year.
As one of the only students in the blackboard Ultra project board, I have made our voice known in the changes that are being made to our online learning system. Seeing that mechanical engineering department is one of the first courses undergoing this transition, the next year(s) could be quite challenging for lecturers and students as they get used to the new system.
As the MechEng Department president, I will aim to resolve issues that are shared across years and ensure that issues raised in previous years have been resolved. I will make sure that our respective lecturers and module leads can remain focused on delivering great education during this transition. I will keep the university accountable for the issues that students face during this transition. I look forward to serving and fighting for this department as we all yield to endeavour.
