Andre Oboler - Biography |
About |
|
|
 |
|
I am currently a third year PhD Student in the Computing Department.
I'm an international student from Australia, with two previous degrees from Monash University, both in Computer Science.
I've been involved in student representation right through university in roles ranging from course rep to my current
position with QAA where I represent all of the UK's 2.2 million university students. Out side of university I enjoy
reading, photography, and trying to make a little bit of a difference where I can.
