Vice President Academic
Tinu Abraham
Tinu is a PhD student researching in the field of oil sands extraction. She sees graduate life as an important learning phase and thereby, she believes CMEGSA has the potential to play a great role in the intellectual development of budding engineers on campus. Her motive as Vice President Academics, is to propagate the right attitude about education and research. She'd like to develop more intellectual events for CMEGSA so that it plays a meaningful role in the overall development of graduate students.
