It's Athraa, a senior student at ELTE TÁTK, majoring in International Relations and Politics. I'm currently knee-deep in my thesis and eagerly anticipating the pursuit of my master's degree in AI governance security, all in pursuit of a career with a real impact. Being an integral part of the global ELTE community has been nothing but an exciting journey and I'm not just referring to my academic endeavors! As an international ambassador, I've had the distinct pleasure of optimizing and working on the integration initiatives for international students into our vibrant community, along with the international strategy office. Serving as a teaching assistant afforded me the opportunity to delve into the nuanced aspects of our university education, shedding light on the efforts and thoughts behind each class and lecture. When I'm not pondering world politics or volunteering around, you might find me practicing my violin skills or outdoors roller skating and hiking with my friends.
So, whether you're up for some witty banter on geopolitics or looking for a hiking buddy who occasionally breaks into impromptu musical performances, I'm your go-to person at ELTE!
 Let's make this university experience legendary together!
