NUST CONFERRED CSR AWARD FOR IMPACT THROUGH EDUCATION

In recognition of its extraordinary Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts and initiatives, NUST was conferred the CSR Award for “Impact through Education” by the National Forum for Environment & Health (NFEH) at a ceremony held at the Serena Hotel on January 22, 2020. Deputy Speaker National Assembly, Mr Qasim Khan Suri, graced the occasion as chief guest. Dr Nassar Ikram, Pro-Rector RIC NUST, received the award on behalf of the university.

The accolade awarded to NUST speaks volumes of how the university is effervescently engaged in creating discernible positive impact on the communities at large by providing quality education for all. Under its flagship NUST Endowment for Educational Development (NEED) initiative, NUST endeavours to ensure that students from financially challenged backgrounds, who qualify on merit for admission at the university, are provided financial aid options to pursue their aspirations. Beyond offering financial assistance to deserving scholars, the university also never loses focus on establishing an environment based on inclusivity. The recently inaugurated NUST Balochistan Campus (NBC) at Quetta is a step towards achieving this objective.
