Hi hi! I’m Emina, your current Deputy President Education 🎃
My time as a Life Sciences undergrad and Bioengineering post-grad compelled me into wanting to right every academic wrong that Imperial has to offer and ensure that students feel included in shaping their academic (and otherwise!) experience. While I may not fix every issue in a year (I wish), I’ve already made great progress—and I’m not done yet!
What I’ve Achieved
⁌ Assessment & Feedback – Coordinated faculty-level workload reviews with students.
⁌ Mitigating Circumstances – Kicked-off a policy review which will inform the development of a centralised digital platform.
⁌ Rep Communication – Regular check-ins with Faculty/DepReps + Faculty-supported Rep socials.
⁌ ICU Transparency & Accessibility – multi-lingual 'About us' ICU page + weekly drop-ins so you can raise concerns and hold us accountable.
What’s Next?
⁍ Reframe Personal Tutoring – Push for career-focused tutoring and clearer expectations around PT mentorship.
⁍ Sustainability in Education – Advocate for degrees to educate students on how their degrees feed into a fast-changing world.
⁍ AI Literacy – Courses that encourage realistic and safe use of gen-AI in learning as well as clear guidelines.
⁍ Student Spaces – Continue to lobby for study/social spaces across campuses as part of White City and South Ken development plans.
⁍ Shifting PG engagement culture – early engagement of PG community + improving supervision quality.
