SARGODHA, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th Feb, 2024) A one-day expo, titled 'Engineering Inspection and Services', was held at the University of Sargodha by the College of Engineering and Technology, here on Thursday.
According to a press release issued by the university, the expo was attended by Vice Chancellor Prof Dr. Qaiser Abbas, Pro Vice Chancellor Prof Dr. Mian Ghulam Yasin, College of Engineering and Technology Principal Dr. Haris Aziz, owners of various companies, chamber of commerce members, traders associated with the steel sector, communication sector, architects and personalities associated with the industry. Purpose of the exhibition was to acquaint engineering professionals with new technology and its applications.
Addressing the participants, the vice chancellor emphasised the need to promote skills and knowledge in line with modern requirements, as education based on modern research is extremely important for development of any society. He mentioned that time had come to upgrade to modern machinery instead of traditional methods to meet demand of time.
