Vice Chancellor's conclusion session on Three Days International Symposium at HU

The creative and original research is the hallmark of the universities and the basic duty of a university professors’ is to explore and generate new ideas and innovative techniques for their recognition in the modern scientific world, where the expanding horizons due to research oriented competitive base need active collaboration and cooperation among the researchers throughout the world. In the recent past, research in life sciences has recorded great breakthrough by opening news possibilities to focus on both classical and applied research. The phenomenal discoveries in genetic engineering and cloning for boosting and enhancing the agriculture production, improving the seed and breeds with the application of advanced DNA technology have been solving the challenging problems of basic food needs to the billions of population around the world. This was stated by Prof. Dr. Syed Sakhawat Shah, Vice Chancellor during concluding session of three-day symposium organized by the Hazara University with financial collaboration of Higher Education Commission, Islamabad. The Vice Chancellor said that the research culture in the world countries will have to be given top priority to feed our rapidly increasing population. It is astonishing to note that the research development allocation in the industrialized advanced countries was much higher as compared to the third world countries, where even the clean drinking water was not available to the majority of teeming population living in slums and brush huts on the outskirts of the big cities. We hope that this symposium must have striven to develop the basic research facilities in this assembly of great minds. The object of the research scientists must be to explore facts and truths with the maximum degree of precision and accuracy while dealing with the statistical data in this regard. The symposium will be useful if it came up with a clear road map for overcoming the problems encountered by the students and teachers. In this regard, the basic concept of research, the research approaches for writing these and to public papers in the internationally recognized journals would have been given special focus. The organizer of the workshop and the chairperson thanked the researchers and representatives of more than 58 research institutes and universities who came throughout the country and shared their valuable experience, knowledge and views during the symposium.
