Topbas: Istanbul mayor Announces 15 GCU students WOULD BE ACCOMMODATED
in Istanbul University every year
 The
GC University Lahore, the 148-year seat of higher learning, conferred
the honorary doctorate degree on Dr Kadir Topbas, the Mayor of Istanbul,
Turkey in recognition of his services for strengthening brotherly ties
between Turkey and Pakistan. “This degree is the shinning beacon of
Pak-Turk cultural relationships, and I will use it for the services of
the people,” said Dr Kadir Topbas while addressing the ceremony that was
held in his honor. It is pertinent to mentioned here that Dr. Topbas has
already earned a PhD in “architectural history” from
Istanbul
University following his education of
theology
in 1972 and
architecture
in 1974. He has also taught architectural in various renowned
universities of Turkey. GCU Vice Chancellor Prof. (Meritorious) Dr.
Muhammad Khaleeq-ur-Rahman; Izaz-I-Kamal, chaired the Degree Awarding
Ceremony at the Bukhari Auditorium, while Pro Chancellor Mian Mujtaba
Shuja-ur-Rahman was also present on the occasion.
.jpg) Dr
Kadir Topbas said that the modern age is all about knowledge and
universities are the places where knowledge is shaped, hence more
investment should be done in universities and research. However, he also
stressed that the research papers produced by scholars in universities
shouldn’t be left to rot; rather they should devise solutions for
problems faced by people in the society. He said that Lahore and
Istanbul are ancient states with great potential and they would like to
share everything, they are doing for development of Istanbul, with
Lahore. He said that Turkey is 15th biggest economy of the World.
However, he said it would be in the top 10 within next couple of years.
Dr Kadir Topbas said that Turkey would continue its collaboration with
Pakistan in energy, solid waste management and transport sectors.
Concluding his
speech, the mayor said, “I really feel privileged and honor to become
alumni of such esteemed university which has produced noble laureates,
men of letters, prime ministers and scientists.
The Istanbul Mayor
announced that every year, 15 students from GCU would be accommodated in
Istanbul University, Turkey to pursue higher studies, while they would
also provide scholarships of $6000 to $9000 to the students of
universities for studying in Istanbul.
Speaking on the
occasion, GCU Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Muhammad Khaleeq-ur-Rahman said
that Pakistan has always cherished a very warm association with Turkey.
He said that GCU has undertaken collaborative research projects with
several Turkish universities, which resulted in the publication of 66
research articles in ISI journals. He said that divide between the
development and under developed countries is knowledge divide. He said
that Turkey has progressed because it is spending more than 4 percent of
its GDP on education, while under developed countries are spending less
than 0.46 percent of their GDP on education. He laid a stress on
initiating students and faculty exchange programmes between the
universities of Pakistan and Turkey to strengthen educational ties. He
said that doors of GCU are always open for Turkish students, professors
and delegations. He revealed that GCU this year is ranked the second
best university in Pakistan on the basis of its research publications
and quality education. He pledged to do all he could to ensure that the
University is ranked among the best universities of the world.

Addressing the
ceremony, Old Ravian Mian Mujtaba Shuja-ur-Rahman welcomed Dr. Topbas on
joining the Ravian fraternity. “Like the Nobel laureate and GCU alumni,
Dr. Abdus Salam, Dr. Kadir Topbas is a man of few words, but a great
personal ethic of hard work and devotion to duty. Like alumni Iqbal and
Faiz, he is a man of farsighted vision, in many ways a rebel but in all
ways a patriot. Like GC principal, ‘Patras’ Bokhari, he is a great
spokesman for his homeland- not just for its flags, anthems and
traditions, but for the culture of its little streets and small
neighborhoods. Has he not then been a Ravian in spirit, long before we
made him one in name?” the education minister said.

and the divide between the rich and the poor countries today is simply a
“knowledge divide.” “Only the countries that have invested in
education have progressed rapidly,” he added.
Prof. Khaleeq lamented that on average
Islamic countries invest only about 0.46 percent of their GDPs in
science and technology, compared to the two to four percent spent by the
advanced countries. He said that most important and potential source of
institutional development is industry linkage which has so far been
untapped in Pakistan. He said that GC University plans to take a
qualitative leap forward by developing strong linkages with industry
through general support, contract research, research centers and
institutes, research consortium, industrial affiliate programs and new
business incubators and technology parks.
The Vice Chancellor said that GCU has
developed a strong liaison in areas of mutual interest with
international universities from Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Hong
Kong, India, Iran, Italy, Malaysia, New Zealand, Netherlands, Singapore,
Turkey, United Kingdom, and USA.
The Vice Chancellor said GCU is bringing
about massive improvement in its teaching and administrative strategies.
He said that a number of bold initiatives have been taken recently which
include reduction the fees of students by 35 percent and hostel dues by
50 percent. “Besides fee reduction, scholarships through the University
budget as well as GCU Endowment Fund have also been given to deserving
students,” he added.
He revealed that new examination rules,
which are in line with the international norms of semester system, have
been devised and implemented. He said that empowerment of academic
departments in academic as well as financial affairs has also been done,
which is vital for a university. “It will cut down the bureaucratic
delays,” he added.
Prof. Khaleeq announced that now doors of
GCU are flung open for other colleges so GCU is ready to share its
148-year long expertise in education with other education institutions
by way of affiliation. “Now various colleges of Punjab can opt for
affiliation with this University,” he added.
