They heard that students were afraid to return to the Education Centre and wanted to help by pairing first-year students with older students who were already familiar with Erasmus MC. Yasmine studies Law, Public Administration <u>and<\/u> Sociology, which is an achievement in itself, but her nomination is mainly due to her commitment to the An-Nahl Foundation. This foundation aims to break the vicious cycle of poverty for orphans by focusing on both education and play.<\/p>\n\n\t<p>Selda is committed to helping students from migrant backgrounds and first-generation students at Erasmus University. She does this partly in her position as president of the student association Mozaik. She is pursuing a master\u2019s degree in Health Care Management. Mohammed, a first-year Medicine student, is a Palestinian refugee working for victims in Gaza. He shares a lot of information about the situation there to tell fellow students about what is going on. Mahika is pursuing a bachelor\u2019s degree in Management of International Social Challenges. She advocates for marginalised groups in many areas, including families in India and Myanmar, through fundraising and other activities. She also planted mangrove trees in Myanmar.<\/p>\n<p>This summary does not do justice to the students\u2019 stories. Therefore, starting next weekend, we are going to be publishing interviews with the finalists. The Student of the Year winner will be announced on 29 May.<\/p>\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/featured-text\" class=\"md:mt-6 p-4 md:p-6 lg:p-8 bg-sand-300 theme-sand:bg-white theme-violet:bg-white theme-mocha:bg-white wysiwyg *:last:mb-0!\" >\n\t\t<p>The election for Student of the Year is organised by Studium Generale and Erasmus Magazine.
