His Highness Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and University of Sharjah (UOS) President, has made a major move by ordering full scholarships to outstanding high school graduates from all over the UAE. This benevolent mandate will see best-performing students from different academic fields be able to pursue their undergraduate program at UOS without paying any tuition fees. The scholarships will fund the full length of the students' undergraduate studies in any of the university's accredited academic programs, reaffirming the university's commitment to academic excellence and social responsibility.
It is based on this belief that outstanding academic achievement should be recognized and rewarded, and that cost should never inhibit a student from maximizing his or her capacity to excel. By removing the economic obstacles to higher studies, the University of Sharjah hopes to cultivate and empower a new generation of scholars capable of making significant contributions to the country's advancement. The move is also an expression of Sheikh Sultan's own commitment to building a culture of scholarship and an enabling environment where ambitious young people can grow and excel.
Complimenting the students and their families, Sheikh Sultan praised them for their commitment, hard work, and success, recognizing the joint effort behind their achievement. He stressed that the university regards the high achievers as integral parts of its university community, worthy of recognition and opportunity. The scholarships are not just a reward for past achievements but also a cornerstone for future development, innovation, and leadership.
Sheikh Sultan also emphasized the continued drive of the university to provide a world-standard education based on global standards. With its wide range of accredited programmes, UOS is well-positioned as a top learning, research, and innovation destination in the region. The university is determined to prepare its students with the kind of knowledge, skills, and critical thinking to solve the intricate issues of today's world.
By taking this initiative to students throughout the UAE, the University of Sharjah reinforces its position as an egalitarian and visionary learning institution, committed to providing equal opportunity to each and every deserving person. This action not only reflects the priority given to academic rigor but also sets a standard for how educational institutions can spearhead building a knowledge society. Through such efforts, UOS continues to solidify its reputation as a talent-nurturing and innovative training ground for national development.
