USP Vice-Chancellor & President Professor Rajesh Chandra
USP Vice-Chancellor & President Professor Rajesh Chandra said these students have come out on the top of their classes. The individual accomplishments being recognised are indicative of the high standard of work and achievement at the University.
“I believe that an institution is only as great as its people. The University has set a record of delivering excellence because our students are nothing short of dynamic. The University is an excellent institution that provides the right mixture of outstanding teaching, a learning culture that values diversity of opinion and worldview, and facilities that enable students to test their ideas,” he said.
“To the winning students; I congratulate you and, while I hope that you savour the feelings of triumph, I also expect you to realise something; you have the ability to be outstanding throughout your life, whether it be professional or personal,” he reminded the recipients.
Professor Chandra further enlightened the guests on the steps the University is taking to ensure that it continues to do justice to its history of being a leader in tertiary education in the region. He highlighted that accreditation is what differentiates the University from other providers in the region and that is why employers value them and why they are the first choice for students.
Professor Chandra talked about the importance of entrepreneurship among graduates and encouraged more graduates to develop their own businesses.
