A future shaped by knowledge Lusail University's second graduation ceremony was a resounding reminder that education is not merely a process but a catalyst for national progress. With each student who steps out of its classrooms, the university affirms its purpose: to educate, to inspire, and to lead. In the words of Dr Hindi: 'We are not only celebrating what has been achieved, but what is yet to come.
