Design Engineering (UG): Year One Academic Representative

Greetings, esteemed brethren and sistren.
There exists (!) only one person in this world who introduces themselves 1.5 times, Bond, James Bond, so why not be the second.

The name is Kardes, Ozan Kardes.

I think it’s safe to say we’ve all been a little overwhelmed by how fast things have taken off since we arrived, a new city, new faces, new projects, and deadlines. We all handle it so differently, and that diversity is what makes each one of us, and our course so special. It’s the harmony between our differences that fuels creativity, something I truly value when working with a big group, like our cohort.

I’ve always enjoyed bringing people together, because each of us adds something unique to the mix. We’ve all earned our place here; we can all do the maths, the physics, the CAD. But what makes us stand out is our individuality, character and I’d love to help that shine.

My main goal as Academic Rep is simple: real feedback, from EVERYONE, not just the loudest voices. I’ll make sure it’s heard, acted on, and that we all see the results.

We’ve all invested a lot to be here, so it makes sense to make the most of it, not just in grades, but in how we feel day to day. Whatever thought or idea you have, no matter how small, I’ll always take it seriously and with a smile.

Together, we can make this course into a community, Vote Kardes.

Fare thee well
