Thursday, March 22 2018
Dr Ansar Pervaiz, former Chairman of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) and recipient of the Hilal-i-Imtiaz, was the guest of honor for 15th UMT Convocation. Giving the keynote address, Dr Ansar said that UMT is an incredible institute for higher education. The graduates assembled today should consider themselves privileged as they have studied in the second largest city and cultural hub of Pakistan, Lahore. They belong to a class of people who are able to get higher education and have studied in one of the best universities of Pakistan. This is important because only 1 in 400 people in Pakistan has a graduate degree.
He also advised the students to show passion towards their work and if they are going for further studies, they should be enthusiastic about it. He also said that they should be thankful towards God Almighty and also to their parents, who have brought them up and bestowed on them all the love and care in the world. He said that it is time to pay back to the society by being kind and loving towards their parents, showing respect to the elders and showing kindness towards their neighbors. He said that the graduates should show dedication towards their work and do their work with all the commitment.
Concluding his speech, Dr Ansar Pervaiz stated that the graduates assembled here today should dream big, perform their work to their full potential, and show commitment towards their goals. He ended his speech on an inspiring poetry by Allama Iqbal ‘Nigh Buland, Sukhan Dil Nawaz, Jaan PursouzYehi Hai Rakht-e-Safar Mir-e-Karwan Ke Liye.’
