CGCU: Education Officer

Hey everyone, I’m Basit, studying MechEng and running for CGCU Education Officer!

I’m currently working as a StudentShaper collaborating with senior staff members at the Educational Development Office at Imperial for reforms in Assessments and Feedback across the Faculty of Engineering as well as all other departments. Additionally, through having been Student Ambassador and Academic Rep to the Dept. of Mechanical-Engineering, I have a lot of experience in communicating and advocating persuasively for student voices to Union and College staff.

My roles have allowed me to hear a lot of different student, staff and external opinions on Imperial, its policies, procedures and development plans and have put me in a position where I can understand many different sides of the story. These perspectives within the College and the Union mean I can find ways to negotiate compromises that other people cannot.

As CGCU Education Officer, I will be able to advocate more strongly for:

  • Clarity on communication between department expectations, policies and specifications to the student body.
  • Effective collaboration across departments between academic and wellbeing representatives.
  • Providing more channels to voice thier concerns and have their voice heard in ameaningful way over departental educational practices

Thank you for reading.

Be a smash-hit, Vote for Basit.
