 Hi, my name is Rene Condon and I'm running for the Faculty Convener of Engineering and Computing. I'm Ava Hayden and I'm running for Entering and Computing Faculty Rep. I'm Connor McCullough and I'm running for Faculty Rep of Engineering and Computing. I'm running because I have a passion for student representation, I love helping students and I want to bring more to DCSU. I'm running because I'm probably the first female convener in the faculty, that's the main reason. Other reasons are to promote STEM, to have better engagement with the SU and also to promote the societies within the faculty. I'm running because I've been a class rep for the last year and it's been a really interesting experience. I've got to meet lots of different people and lots of different backgrounds and lots of different hobbies and interests. It's just been really interesting to see that kind of thing and I kind of want to take to the next level and do more parts for the bigger part of the SU again. Within the engineering faculty there has been a few issues from what I've experienced in my first year here, such as having say five exams in a row which isn't, according to some people isn't within the regulations so I'm hoping to fix that for next year. Also that the allocation for labs is very inefficient and it's not really prioritized. People who say have assignments were 20% and they need a lab space to actually do it and they can't go down to the library because all the software isn't on there. So I'm hoping to just optimize the lab allocation, make it more efficient and then somehow prioritize some lab spaces. To be honest in the engineering faculty we're the forgotten faculty I think with the SU so I'd like to see the SU engage with us more, kind of cater the events more to a time that suits the engineers and also to see the engineers engage more with the SU as well. One of the things I've noticed a lot is that in general for a lot of students they can't actually attend a lot of the events we have. A lot of them live either off campus at home or just simply don't necessarily enjoy some of the events we have, like a lot of them are centered around alcohol and a lot of people don't, a bit surprised at the sheer volume of people that don't actually like that and it's interesting just to see that and I kind of feel there needs to be more tailored for that group of people and just more things to engage more students is a big point for me. I hope to work with the head of school, head of school so people like Rory O'Connor to actually do these, put these things in place and then work with module coordinators who actually help set out the timetable and then if they have say labs where it's not full but they don't want any people in there we need to stop that so that say fourth years and third years who are actually contributing towards their degree have somewhere to do their work and they are pushed out into a packed lab such as LG25. First of all obviously kind of whoever is running the SU next year to be able to sit down with them, talk through, make sure our voice is heard that look we're in class 9 to 6 every day there's a lot of events that aren't really catered for us. I'd also like to see Engineering this week, part of the SU column there so that would be one of the main things I'd be looking at doing and also just general promotion of STEM which is Science, Psychology, Engineering and Maths around campus just so people are aware that we're not just stuck in the engineering building all the time. Well I have a lot of different ideas of what I want to do and one of the main things is I was thinking of organising a mock version of the Olympic Games I was thinking to call it maybe Frackle the Games or something like that and it would just have a load of different random events there would be some sporting and some kind of maybe related to the courses and then there would also be like complete and other pistic events just to spice it up a little so hopefully either way I hope to do something along the line to that at some point. The dream job, let's say just working in my field, like in any top company in my field because I absolutely love computer science and it's just, it is my dream job to be honest. Okay, that's really good. I'd actually love to be an engineer in the ISS at the space station because you see the cool photographs that they take from space so that would be a pretty cool job to have for whatever six months or a year. Well, an inventor is kind of the thing I'm aimed towards for engineering but it's not necessarily an exact path to it but that would be kind of the thing I'm aimed at purely because I want to help make a change I know that's as stereotypical as it gets but like just something to help contribute to society I guess is in some way shape or form a happy one.
