Celebrating your academic community

Hi, I am Nicoleta, a 4th year Engineering and Science student. During my studies, my academic community has become a second family to me. That is why I have made the choice to learn, understand and broaden my horizons while I am preparing for my future. Finding a reason to celebrate achievements and people has allowed me to reflect on my journey, while it also made me feel like I belong and I am heard, appreciated, and supported

My name is Liliana, and I am a second-year social work student. My goal is to work in cybersecurity, and alongside my coursework, I am developing the hard skills necessary to work in the sector. I enjoy reading, playing chess, and spending time with my family and friends. I am a member of the Enactus, African Caribbean Society, and a student peer mentor.

Aiza Khan, Humanities & Social Sciences
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has had a profound impact on various aspects of society. On the positive side, AI has improved efficiency in industries, leading to increased productivity and economic growth as well as enhanced convenience for individuals, etc. However, there are concerns about AI’s negative effects, such as loss of creativity in individuals, laziness in students, potential job displacement due to automation, ethical implications related to privacy and data security, etc. Balancing these aspects is crucial for harnessing the full potential of AI while addressing its challenges. As a student, I will also face the challenges and threats of career opportunities created by artificial intelligence and technology. To prepare for my future I’m studying MA Applied Linguistics, as I am passionate about the power of language and its ability to connect people from diverse backgrounds. I thrive on embracing diversity and inclusivity, believing that understanding different cultures and perspectives enriches our lives. I aspire to leverage my passion for linguistics, love for diversity, and commitment to inclusivity to create a more connected and empathetic world.
