Faculty members are the main pillars of our Institution. They take the lead role in all activities including teaching, research and administration. The Institute is conscious of the need for their holistic growth and career development. The Faculty Forum gives a collective voice to the needs of the faculty so that the administration can get to know and address them. I hope that the forum will continue to offer an open platform for faculty to share their views on diverse academic and institutional topics leading to a positive growth and enhanced global recognition of the Institute.
