Hello, my name is Shubham Singh and I am currently Postgraduate Education Officer. My role encompasses representing Postgraduate (both taught and research) students at all levels within University and improving their student experience, particularly, in regards to well-being and academic affairs.

In September 2016, I came to Bristol to do MSc Gender and International relations. Outside my studies, I engaged with Best of Bristol (BOB) Lectures Committee, Course Rep role, Democratic Standards Committee and Badminton Club. Participation in extra-curricular activities supported by SU helped me have an enriching social experience and deal with the challenges that come along with moving to a different country for the first time and doing Masters.

If you are a postgraduate or an international student, feel free to get in touch with me through Facebook or email.

Here's what I want to do for you:

1. Making the University more affordable

Increasing the number of scholarships available for international students and broadening the criteria for the International Students' Hardship Fund

2. Improve the social experience of postgraduate and international students

Social life: Supporting Postgraduate network and International students network to improve social experience of postgraduate and international students.

3. Tailored job guidance for international students

International Students Empolyability: Tailored guidance to international students regarding their work prospects in the UK and beyond.

4. Educational experience

5. Career Support for Postgraduates who teach
