Speech of the Dean.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

All praise is due to Allah, who taught by the pen, taught mankind what they did not know. May peace and blessings be upon our Master Muhammad, the best of those who learn and teach, and upon his pure and noble family.

Dear students, esteemed colleagues from the faculty and administrative staff,
Peace and blessings be upon you.

It is a great honour to address you today as we embark on a new chapter in the journey of knowledge and learning at the Faculty of Pharmacy—an esteemed institution that we all take pride in. Since its establishment, our highest goal has been to prepare generations of innovative pharmacists who contribute to improving public health and advancing medical progress and scientific research.

The Faculty of Pharmacy is not merely a building with classrooms and laboratories; it is a platform where science and innovation converge, where research meets application, and where education aligns with service. Our role goes beyond providing theoretical knowledge; we are committed to developing your practical and clinical skills and enhancing your research capabilities.

In today’s world, health challenges are increasing at an unprecedented rate, placing a significant responsibility on pharmacists to find innovative solutions. Whether by developing new medications, improving treatment methods, or leading community awareness initiatives, the role of the pharmacist extends beyond traditional duties to become an essential pillar of the healthcare system.

Dear students,
You are the beating heart of this faculty. You are the hope and the future in which we invest all our efforts. I urge you to make full use of the educational and research resources the faculty offers to build a solid foundation for your professional future. Remember, a pharmacist is not just a specialist in medications; they are a crucial partner in the patient’s treatment journey and a trusted source within the healthcare system.

Esteemed faculty and administrative staff,
Your role is no less important than that of the students. You are the foundation upon which the educational process is built, and without you, our vision and mission cannot be realized. I look forward to continuing our work together with a spirit of teamwork to achieve even greater excellence.

In conclusion, I reaffirm that the doors of the faculty will always remain open to your ideas and suggestions. We are here to be partners in your success and in the success of this faculty. We pledge to exert every possible effort to provide an inspiring educational and research environment.

May Allah guide us all to what is good and right and grant us success in achieving our shared vision of building a bright future for pharmacy and serving our community.

Peace and blessings be upon you.
