A Courtesy Call From The Turkish KARABÜK University Delegation

It was a great pleasure to host the Turkish Karabük University delegation at my office on November 3, 2022. The Rector, Professor Dr Refik Polat, is accompanied by Ömer Altun, Director of Yunus Emre Institute, Oya Önalan, International Relations Coordinator, and Türkan Sultan Yaşar, Tour Programme Manager.

Throughout the session, we addressed the Mevlana exchange programme and the renewal of the Memorandum of Understanding between UiTM and Karabük University. In addition, both parties committed to offering language courses and promoting curriculum transfer while considering the participation of more faculties in this partnership.
As a result of our discussion, I am delighted to have received an invitation to participate and collaborate with them at the UNESCO Strategic Planning Conference. Furthermore, we have agreed to explore the potential of offering language courses at the UiTM Academy of Language Studies under the MoU with Yunus Emre Institute Kuala Lumpur (A foundation under the Turkish Embassy in Kuala Lumpur).

The visit is coordinated by TPr Professor Dr Jamalunlaili Abdullah, Assistant Vice Chancellor, College of Built Environment and assisted by Muhammad Danial Ismail, Turkey-Malaysia Relations Coordinator. On that note, I’d want to thank everyone who came to the meeting.
