In addition, the Dean praised the success achieved by UoB, through its advanced technological system, in securing educational life during the pandemic, as it “turned the ordeal into a gift” due to the wise leadership’s continuous support to the University.
The National University held graduation ceremonies for its students registered in the ceremonial program, from January 19, 2023, to January 29, 2023.
During the morning ceremony, law graduates received graduation certificates from the Vice President for Community Service and Alumni Affairs, Dr. Mohammed Saleh Al-Ansari, while their colleagues in the same major received their certificates from the Vice President for Information Technology Services, Administrative and Financial Affairs, Dr. Osama Abdullah Al-Jowder, in the evening.
Graduates expressed their joy, gratitude and thanks to UoB, while the graduate, Sheikha Nouf bint Khalid Al Khalifa, referred to the years that the students spent in the corridors of the University, and the lessons they learned of “love and constant advancement towards everything that makes this country always on the top of science and development edifices.”.
Sheikha Nouf bint Khalid Al Khalifa thanked the parents and faculty members for their efforts, encouragement, and support, which led to reaping the fruits of these efforts.
The graduate, Hawra Ali Abdullah, who won the Abi Yusuf Al-Qadi Prize in Law, delivered the graduates’ speech at the evening ceremony, where she expressed her great happiness with the outstanding academic achievement accomplished by all students, after continuous and tireless efforts and hardships. “These moments are exceptional in their beauty, as today we will have the honor of receiving graduation certificates and medals.” Abdullah said, expressing her thanks to the University, its affiliates, and the parents who spared no effort in supporting and guiding the students.
It is worth mentioning that the College of Law, which was established in 2002, offers bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs, and it is keen to link pure theoretical study with practical application, as it uses halls for practical training (moot courts), in order to prepare its students to work in judicial and legislative institutions and bodies, and legal departments, and to provide them with legal sciences and knowledge.
