MEMBERS WANTED

 📊 Have you ever heard of: Artificial Intelligence, Fintech, Machine Learning and Big Data? If you have and you’re wondering who’s behind it all, it’s Data Scientists! They use data, technology and mathematics combined to help individuals make decisions, in any field that uses data.

By hosting hackathons, student conferences, programming classes and more, our society aims to promote data science by giving you practical opportunities to show the skills and knowledge this profession demands. In addition, we hope to help our members increase their employability, giving you something to brag about during those all-important job interviews.

Don’t worry though, we’re not just all work and no play! We’re also planning to host socials so you can let your hair down and explore beautiful Edinburgh too.

So if you keen to hear more about the society send me an email: Anthony Lee azl1@hw.ac.uk 📊 

✒️"I wish I could make something this abstract yet beautiful..." That's a usual thought some of us have at seeing those simplistic creative posts on every social media or paintings in some exhibition or museums. How about if we told you that you don't need to know drawing skills to be a graphic designer? Exciting, isn't it?

If you like the idea of being a part of a group where creativity is encouraged to be set loose, then come join our brand new Graphic Design society! Throughout the year, we will be engaging in basic fun learning activities of graphic design like poster making, random book cover designs, logo design and much more!

For any more information and joining requests please get in touch with Mamta via email ms94@hw.ac.uk ! ✒️

⚖ Do you think you could improve in communicating your standards? Want to be involved in making the world a fairer place? Join the Equality Discussion Group and we will help you achieve that and much more! Contact Carolina at carolinarevello@icloud.com for more information ⚖

☑️ Are you interested in Socialism, workers rights, and trade unions?

Has the recent political landscape and the rise of a left-wing labour party made you think about politics?

So do what you think is right and join the Communist Society, by contacting Evan (es64@hw.ac.uk) today! ☑️
