The Former Prime Minister, Dr. Hani Al-Mulqi, sponsored Yarmouk University’s honoring ceremony of the top students of the 43rd cohort, which was organized by the university’s Alumni Club in the presence of the Vice President of Yarmouk, Professor Muwaffaq Alomoush, at Al-Kindi Auditorium of the Faculty of Arts. Al-Mulqi mentioned that Yarmouk University is a Jordanian scientific edifice that has always been providing Jordan with educated youth and creative cadres and graduates. He then addressed honored students saying: “Today you are entering the stage of manhood, challenge, and hope to achieve aspirations of a decent life. The coming days are the most difficult experience, but if you handle it with sincerity and dedication, you will definitely reach your goals and hopes”. Moreover, Al-Mulqi pointed out that achieving goals needs not only aspirations, good intentions, or slogans, but also faith in God, the homeland, and the King, as well as hard work.
For his part, Alomoush affirmed the University's interest in its distinguished students and graduates through investing in their creativity and empowering them in all fields for their benefit and in favor of their University. He also pointed out that His Majesty King Abdullah II emphasizes the importance of activating the role of youth in public life, especially in university environments, advancing the process of youth empowerment, providing them with the necessary skills and knowledge to be a beneficial tributary for the labor market. He finally expressed the University's pride in its graduates whose number exceeds two hundred thousand individuals, including more than 14 thousand international graduates from 82 countries around the world.
The head of Yarmouk University’s Alumni Club, Dr. Essam Al-Azzam, said that Jordan should give the category of creative and outstanding students the majority of its attention and care, so that their achievements contribute to its renaissance and development. Doing this, he added, would be achieved through setting legislations to take care of such category and providing them with all necessary materials, capabilities, and scientific and research facilities.
Dr. Amal Al-Malkawi, who obtained the first place in the doctoral program in Arabic Language and Literature, delivered the speech of the honored graduates, in which she said: “we are fully aware that science is the base for constructing and developing civilizations and that the future of nations is associated with scientific prosperity and development. Malkawi also thanked Yarmouk University’s acknowledgment of the efforts of its faculty members and students, stressing that Yarmouk graduates, especially the top ones, need to get supported to fulfill their aspirations and continue the path of excellence and success.
