This Rector’s presentation started with introductions of the guests which was a perfect ice breaker that led to a feeling of warmth and pure excitement in the audience.

It was followed by sharing the key highlights of the growth-led development and new initiatives at Forman Christian College University that took place in the last two decades that included the construction of several new buildings, improving academic standards, introduction and addition of new programs, initiatives towards a more environmentally sustainable campus, women empowerment, scholarships and financial aid and plans for future development and global recognition.

The Rector’s speech was highly appreciated by the business community and was an eye-opener for them about our dedication and commitment to higher education.

The Formanites Alumni Association President Mr Attiazaz Munawwar ud Din and Alumni Board member Dr AS Chughtai also encouraged the corporate fraternity to step forward and engage more frequently with FCCU to inspire the students studying here, who will soon be leaders in their respective fields.
