“UofG is 575, unbelievable, and I’ve been at UofG for 10! It feels overwhelming to be a part of UofG, because ask me 20 years ago if someone like me coming from my small local town in Bajulaiye, Shomolu in Lagos could one day be a lecturer at this University my response would be no, because I didn’t see myself here. And just being here shows me the power of showing up for yourself.” - Sofiat Olaosebikan

Throughout our special anniversary year, we’ve been sharing some incredible from the remarkable people who make up .

Today, we’re proud to shine a spotlight on the inspiring journey of our very own Dr Sofiat Olaosebikan.

Sofiat joined the University of Glasgow as a PhD student, and 10 years on, she is now a lecturer, inspiring the next generation through her teaching, research and outreach work. Through her commitment to empowering young Africans with computing skills, she is helping to create new opportunities and inspire future generations.

Her journey is a wonderful testament to the power of believing in yourself, embracing opportunities and staying committed to your dreams.

Congratulations on 10 incredible years, Sofiat! We’re so proud of everything you’ve achieved and the journey you’ve taken from student to lecturer. We can’t wait to see where the next chapter takes you. A true UofG world changer! 🎉
