Assalaam Alaikum!

I warmly welcome you to the MNU Business School, where we strive to
nurture business minds and guide you in your learning journey as you navigate your way through
our higher education options to become exceptional accountants, managers, marketers,
entrepreneurs, economists, statisticians and other business or management professionals. As your
Dean, I would like to highlight a few things to guide you through your learning journey.
I urge you all to aim for academic excellence and take responsibility for your individual learning
journeys. Strive to give your best effort and gain maximum learning from the lectures and tutorials
of your respective courses. Supplement this learning with additional research and self-learning
through technological and other resources. We encourage you to explore creative and innovative
ways of learning the relevant content covered in our programs.

Our courses are structured in a manner that ensures we impart skills required for organizational
environments. We provide multiple opportunities for students to work in team environments and
enhance their people skills such as communication skills or conflict management skills. Make
optimum use of these opportunities for your personal and professional growth.

As part of the Maldives National University, we take special care in inculcating and strengthening
certain values among our community. I invite you all to pay special attention to practicing the MNU
philosophy of Iman and Ilm in your studies and outside. I encourage you to fine tune our core values
of honesty, and integrity, and learn to be respectful in all encounters with your fellow students,
faculty and our entire team here at MNUBS and MNU.

We offer the opportunity for all students to take on leadership roles through the Business School
Students Association (BSSA). We would like more students to take the initiative and contribute to
the BSSA as well as utilize other opportunities we provide with the goal of empowering students
and reviving the spirit of volunteerism and service to the nation.

Our team at MNUBS are here to assist you in your learning journey. Lecturers, Coordinators, Heads
of Department, the administrative team and I are all committed to ensuring that we make a positive
difference in the lives of each and every one of you throughout your time at MNUBS and beyond.
I remind you all to focus on your respective career and personal goals. Make sure that every day
you spend at MNUBS is a day of added value and bring you closer to achieving your respective
goals.

Thank you for choosing MNUBS as your higher education provider. My team and I look forward
to seeing you graduate with flying colors and embark on your respective professional journeys.
Wishing you all an enjoyable and fruitful learning journey with MNUBS.
