\nThe ceremony was led by faculty, students, and staff of Habib University who interacted with the high-achievers and their parents attending the event. They shared their views on the importance of a quality higher education and its role in the uplift of society. Addressing the audience, Dr. Christopher Taylor, Vice President Academic Affairs and Dean of Faculty at Habib University observed that, \u201cthe nature of change has become so fast that the world would have changed by the time you graduate. Always ask yourself whether you\u2019re spending your time and effort on an education that is worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sharing his thoughts, Dr. Aamir Hasan, Program Director, Electrical Engineering and recipient of the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz, said, \u201cI want to highlight that we have made a conscious choice, where our engineering and computer science students are exposed to a robust set of well thought of liberal core courses. This is important as the journey from good to great engineers rides on the shoulders of the liberal art curriculum.\u201d
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThe students and graduates are at the heart of any institution of higher learning and are a true reflection of its credibility.

\nDr. Aaron Mulvany, Associate Professor, Social Development and Policy, said, \u201cI don\u2019t look at problems from one angle and I teach my students the same. By teaching students to have multiple perspectives, they will be able to switch between roles and professions, thanks to the interdisciplinary education.\u201d
