HYDERABAD: Everything changes with time, except the change itself. We live in an age of innovation and change, and in such an age, the universities have a special obligation.
They must hold fast to the best of the past, and do more for the best of the future, said Prof. Dr. Asadullah Kazi, Chancellor, Isra University while presiding over its 17th Convocation of Isra University held on 25 January 2020 at its main campus in Hyderabad.
The Isra University conferred degrees to around 397 students belonging to Medical Sciences, Dentistry, Nursing, Physical Therapy, Management Sciences, Electronics, Computer Science, Information Communication Technology and Software Engineering.
While talking about change, Prof. Dr. Asadullah Kazi said that we must get ready for globalization, which is like the river that has burst its banks. He advised that we must learn swimming or else we will be drowned. As a parting message to the students, he said, “Work hard to achieve your goals. I want you to become great, as we are optimistic in you. You are the leaders of tomorrow, so get yourself ready to address the challenges of the future.’ He went on and reminded the students their goal as educated citizens, ‘to uphold the image of your country, by letting the world know that we are a peaceful nation.”
On this felicitous occasion, Prof. Dr. Abdul Rashid Shaikh, Vice Chancellor, Isra University in his address said that the main purpose of such events is not only to confer degrees on the students but also to honor those who have performed meritoriously.****
