Academic selected for WIHEA Fellowship
Dr Ay艧e Sunar has been selected as a Fellow of the Warwick International Higher Education Academy (WIHEA) for three years. Fellows were chosen from an oversubscribed field of applicants, and the selection panel noted that WIHEA and the University would benefit from her experience, insight and enthusiasm for learning, teaching and the student experience.
WIHEA, now one of the areas of work of the Warwick Education Academy, brings together staff and students from across the University to share good practice and lead change in learning and teaching.
The Fellowship builds on Ay艧e鈥檚 existing involvement in Computer Science Education research and Warwick鈥檚 Learning and Teaching Action Groups. These roles will complement each other, alongside her teaching and departmental responsibilities in DCS, and will help connect work in Computer Science with the wider learning and teaching community at Warwick.
Congratulations to Ay艧e on this achievement!

DCS Student Helps Uncover and Fix Mobile Network Security Flaw
Warwick undergraduate Sasha Shaw has helped uncover and responsibly disclose a security flaw in a UK mobile network as part of his dissertation project, supervised by Professor Feng Hao.
