Adena Sheps
Bachelor of Information Technology Co-operative Scholarship

“I was attracted to the Bachelor of Information Technology Co-operative

Scholarship at UTS as it offers a broad insight into the diverse streams of IT,
blending both technical and business training to provide a sound foundation for
a career in technology. Additionally, the in-built industry placements provide a
direct conduit to gaining practical skills, helping me become industry ready on
graduation. For example, during my placement at Campaign Monitor I gained
exposure to front end development and was able to significantly improve my
technical capability.
I also have a strong interest in the field of human computer interaction and
the Interaction Design sub-major offered by this course closely matches my
aspirations and skill set.
UTS has also provided many opportunities to improve my leadership, teamwork
and communication skills through the numerous extra-curricular activities
on offer. For example, I have been involved in the Women in Engineering and IT
Gender Equity Ambassador Program which was a highly fulfilling experience.”

Aiswaryalakshmi (Ais) Rajeev

Bachelor of Information Technology (Co-Op scholarship)

“After I left high school, I knew I would definitely do like a tech degree. I’m not a
very technical person or a genius programmer, which is why I love my current
degree. It gave me the flexibility to choosing what I want to learn as well as
industry experience to go out into the workforce.”
Gender Ambassador for Women in Engineering and IT, Ais is involved in SPROUTS,
Movement UTS, UTS Tech Society and represents the Faculty of Engineering and
IT on both the Academic Board and Faculty Board.
“There’s a social side to University as well as like professional development side –
it’s as important to socialise and have fun as it is to work on yourself and improve
your own skills. UTS has so many services available in making sure you’re always
like supported no matter what you want to do.”

Mustafa Barodawala
Bachelor of Computing Science (Honours)

“I wanted to study in an area that focuses on

technology, but also mathematics. In computing
science, maths is the foundation of how we analyse
different programs, algorithms, and even different
computational systems.
Having this unique way of approaching problems
allows computer scientists to thoroughly investigate
a problem, such as find some hidden-in-plain sight
sort of pattern in a data analytics problem, or rule
out potential algorithms immediately by predicting
their run-time and space requirements.”

“In high school, I did a number of IT subjects like

Information Process Technology and Software
Design. I didn’t have any background in business
or accounting, but I felt the degree would offer
opportunities in both fields.
I have a graduate accountant position at Waterway
Constructions, found through the UTS Careers Hub.
It’s been a big learning curve on accounting as well as
an IT project to automate processes in the company.
