I am delighted to know that the SBKW University is holding its Third Academic Convocation, to confer degrees of M.A and M.Sc. upon the graduating students. Convocation is the most cherished and memorable event in the life of the student. It is not merely a ceremonial event but it marks the beginning of an equally important phase of life both personal as well as to their families and the people of Balochistan and Pakistan.

The SBKW University is a beacon of hope for the women of Balochistan and provides them with an opportunity of acquiring higher education. I can envision the positive change and the silent social revolution that is beginning in Balochistan with the creation of the women’s university; the university is producing educated, moderate and enlightened women, who appreciate and respect their culture and society and are ready to serve the nation within the parameters of Islam.

On this auspicious occasion, I convey my best wishes to all graduating students and their parents, and advice students to continue their quest of acquiring new knowledge as well as to disseminate the knowledge that they have acquired at the university, and hope that they will uphold the honour and prestige of their alma mater. I also extend my heartiest congratulations to the Vice Chancellor and her teams, both administrative as well as academic, for making the SBKWU a quality educational institution in the province.
