  1. Research assistantships 

I would create more research assistantships that would be available for undergraduate students in order to make the education experience more practical. This would also enhance CVs for future employment.

Introduce more scholarships, bursaries and general financial assistance for students of low-income backgrounds, international students, student entrepreneurs etc and those facing financial difficulties to enable a more holistic experience.
