Hi, I’m Sharia, a third-year MEng Computing student at Imperial. I was raised in Tehran, Iran, and I’ve always had a passion for music. I enjoy playing Flamenco guitar and the traditional Persian instrument, the Tar. In my free time, I like to stay active by playing basketball, and I also enjoy CTF challenges.
In a recent visit to Imperial’s Data Observatory, I embarked on a journey through the realms of data visualization that left me profoundly enlightened. Nestled within the heart of the Department of Computing, the observatory is a beacon of innovation where data transcends mere numbers to reveal intricate patterns and unseen insights.
The Data Observatory is the largest of its kind in Europe, it features an enveloping circular wall of 64 monitors powered by 32 computers facilitating 313 degrees of surround vision. Over 130 million pixels make up the total screen resolution, allowing participants to experience big data like never before.
Hi, I’m Hamish, a first-year student in MEng Computing (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning). So far this year I’ve enjoyed discovering set theory in our discrete maths module and learning to build a processor in Computer Systems, while at the moment I’m relishing Kotlin. I particularly like honing my competitive programming skills through algorithmic problem solving, and outside of my degree I play water polo once a week.
Hi! I’m Dhruv, and I’m a first-year Computing undergraduate here at Imperial. I was born and raised in India and recently moved to London for my higher education. I love meeting new people and I enjoy playing the keyboard in my free time.
Hi! I’m Chloe, a Final Year BEng Computing student at Imperial! Coming from a Hong Kong and Welsh background, I’m a very diverse person and I like to meet new things and people! I also dabble into various branches of Technology – currently some NLP and Computational Linguistics for my final year project.
