Dr. Hamad Kasasbeh
The event held at the University of Jordan to mark sixty years since the establishment of the Faculty of Business was more than a formal celebration. It was a moment to pause and reflect on a long academic journey that started within the University of Jordan, the mother university, and that has served education and the national economy for many years.
The University of Jordan has always been the main pillar of higher education in the country. The Faculty of Business is one of its colleges that grew and developed within this respected institution. Over the years, the faculty has prepared graduates who worked in economics, management, accounting, and finance, serving institutions in Jordan and abroad.
During my participation in this event, I felt proud to belong to the University of Jordan. The university did not only provide knowledge, but also taught its students important values such as discipline, commitment, and responsibility. Meeting professors who taught us in the late 1970s reminded me that the influence of a university and its teachers stays with graduates throughout their lives.
On this occasion, I am proud to be a graduate of the University of Jordan, the mother university, which formed the academic foundation of my career. The Faculty of Business was an important part of this foundation. It provided solid knowledge and helped shape a strong sense of professional responsibility.
With this strong academic base, moving into professional life was a natural step. Through my experience as a graduate of the Central Bank of Jordan, I saw clearly how academic knowledge turns into practical work in a disciplined environment. This experience strengthened analytical skills and deepened economic understanding.
From its place within the University of Jordan, the Faculty of Business has helped prepare graduates who later took on responsibilities in both the public and private sectors. This role did not happen by chance. It was the result of serious education that focused on linking learning to real work and market needs.
After sixty years of contribution, the focus is not only on the past, but also on the future. The University of Jordan, together with the Faculty of Business, has the experience and capacity to continue developing. By updating programs, strengthening practical skills, and aligning education with labor market needs, the university can continue to prepare graduates for a changing world.
In conclusion, I would like to thank the President of the University of Jordan for this thoughtful initiative, and the Dean of the Faculty of Business for the excellent organization. After sixty years of achievement, the Faculty of Business remains an important part of the University of Jordan, and the mother university continues to be a source of pride and a strong institution moving forward with confidence and hope.
