Omar
Brunel University of London
Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Hi ! I'm Omar, an international student from Egypt. I have been at Brunel since 2021 studying Electronic and Electrical Engineering. Since then I have found myself immersed in every aspect of it whether it is engaging with the diverse societies or focused in my lectures. Brunel offers me the mix that creates an exceptional balance between studies and social life.
Shiam
Brunel University of London
Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Hello,
I’m Shiam Rahman, and I’m currently studying Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Brunel University.
Ever since I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by electronic devices and how they work. Electrical engineering is like the "black magic" of engineering—it’s all happening behind the scenes, and yet, every little interaction, like the click of a button, is the result of someone’s design and innovation. I’m excited to dive deeper into how these systems work and, one day, be part of the tech industry that shapes our future.
Beyond engineering, I have a strong passion for art and design. I love drawing and painting people, and I also have skills in graphic design, image manipulation, and animation. My creative side really complements my technical interests, and I enjoy finding ways to blend the two.
At Brunel, I also work as a Student Recruitment and Widening Access Ambassador. It’s such a rewarding experience, and I love being part of a community that is all about supporting each other. Brunel is a fantastic place to study, make new friends, and take advantage of amazing facilities and support. I’d love to see you here!

Chemical Engineering BEng
Hi! I'm Arun, a 3rd Year Chemical Engineering student at University of Aberdeen. I made the exciting move to Aberdeen in 2023 to pursue my interest in chemical engineering. It really amazes me how the energy industry plays an vital role in our day-to-day life. It actually makes me to conserve the industry for the future without exploiting it to the core. I would love to make a difference in the energy industry by creating sustainable and productive solutions to the modern day problems faced by the industry. I would be happy to answer all your questions about the university, my studies, student life, city or anything else. Feel free to post your questions. Cheers:)

Ema
University of Strathclyde
BEng Biomedical Engineering
I moved to Scotland at the age of twenty and can understand how diffcult it can be, but it also was the best challenge I have ever faced. I do biomedical engineering and want to focus on a combination of electronics and cell biology in the future. I came to this realization from internships and would love to give advice and help in any way I can. I am also passionate about art and crafting in any shape and form and focus a lot on perserving time for hobbies even when the university gets challenging, so we can also have a chat about that! :)
Emma
University of Strathclyde
Faculty of Engineering
Hi there! I am a PhD Student who recently graduated from Strathclyde with a MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Applications.
I started my PhD in Design Manufacturing and Engineering Management in October and have been enjoying working on my project ‘Cognitive Biases in Conceptual Design’
In my free time, I enjoy exploring both Scotland and abroad, but particularly this beautiful country. Some of my favourite memories from Strathclyde have been the sports ball, a mountaineering trip to Glencoe, and attending fight nights. I have had so many great experiences from my time as a student here from from being a sports union volunteer to becoming a class rep.
I am happy to chat about anything regarding Glasgow, academia, and any other aspects of student life

Simply put, my plan is to be the bridge between industrial practices (especially in the Oil and Gas industry) and Sustainability. Those two things do not have to be parallel lines. They can run together, and I will make it a norm.

Hi! I’m Hannah, a second-year student studying Neural Engineering with Psychology. My degree isn’t one that’s very well known but I love it. It combines Psychology, Engineering and Computer Science. In my next couple of years, I will cover areas like AI, brain computer-interfaces and neuroscience. If that sounds like your sort of thing, then definitely go check it out and feel free to ask me any questions about my experience so far. I mostly work in the CSEE department so I can answer questions about other courses as well. Outside of university I like to listen to music and I’m trying to get back into the gym. Ask me any questions you have, big or small, and I will try my best to answer them.
