The Dean of the Faculty of Architecture and Design at the Middle East University, Dr. Ayman Awad, emphasised the importance of meetings that bring together collective aspirations, academic excellence, and institutional progress. Such meetings foster an environment conducive to dialogue, cooperation, and informed decision-making, as was evident during the Faculty’s General Assembly.
During the presentation to faculty members from the departments of architecture, interior design, and graphic design, it was explained that architecture and design have a crucial role in shaping our environments, influencing our behaviour, and improving our quality of life. They are also powerful tools to address complex societal challenges, promote sustainable development, enhance human well-being, and achieve social inclusion.
He noted that the meeting provides a chance to enhance academic counselling mechanisms and expand knowledge by considering various perspectives and receiving constructive feedback. This will expand the educational process to the specifications that the university aims to achieve.
