Hi, I’m Pujan Patel, currently studying a Bachelor of Information Technology, majoring in Software Application Development at the ÌÔÆ¬×ÊÔ´Íø.
I’m passionate about technology, innovation, and community engagement. As a Student Ambassador and participant in the National Leadership Forum 2024 in Canberra, I enjoy connecting with people, promoting student life, and contributing to a positive campus experience.
Outside of studies, I love playing cricket and tennis, and spending peaceful moments at Picnic Point, Queens Park, and the Japanese Garden in Toowoomba.
School representatives
Hi I’m Maddie. I am in my 4th year of studying a Bachelor of Education (Primary) and I am the School of Education representative on the Student Senate. I am also one of the Senate co-chairs.
A little about me is that I play percussion, I really like animals, especially dogs, and I like to play netball and softball. I enjoy getting to talk with fellow students to hear what is going well, concerns and ideas so feel free to reach out.
Hey, I’m Ujwal, a final-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at ÌÔÆ¬×ÊÔ´Íø.
I’m super passionate about sustainable energy and currently researching wireless charging systems for electric vehicles.
I’ve also worked on-site with Millmerran Power Project and Ivy Homes, where I got to apply what I’ve learned in real-world settings. When I’m not studying or building something in the lab, you’ll probably find me surfing, camping, or chasing the next great adventure outdoors.
