We’d like to introduce our new student representative, Polina Artiushkina.

Polina comes from Moscow, Russia and is studying the Master of Applied Management at OPAIC.

She’s been actively involved in student and campus life since August 2019. Polina’s helped with events as a Student Ambassador and has also volunteered with external organisations.

Her strong skillset and personality traits have helped her achieve academically and lead an active student life.

She has excellent time management, engagement, and focus on results. These traits have led to good academic results and to receiving an Excellent Scholars Award in Study Block 4.

Good communication skills have help her connect with students and the academic staff, and her friendliness and openness have helped her make friends from different cultures.

Polina says being a Student Representative is an opportunity for her to showcase her leadership skills, find solutions in different situations, listen to advice, and consider the opinions of others as a member of the OPAIC team.

If you have any questions or you would like to talk to Polina about anything from academics, to personal issues, to social events, please come and see her on Level 1 on Mondays and Thursdays between 9am until 1pm or email AICstudentrep@op.ac.nz.
