Riphah International University has achieved another significant milestone in its journey toward global engagement and academic excellence through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with City University Malaysia.

The MoU was signed during an online ceremony organized by the Riphah College of Nursing (RCN) in collaboration with the Riphah International Office (RIO). The partnership marks an important step in strengthening international academic collaboration and expanding global opportunities for students and faculty members.

The ceremony was attended by distinguished leadership from both institutions, including Dr. Norman Chu (Vice Chancellor Academic, City University Malaysia) and Prof. Dr. Anis Ahmad (Vice Chancellor, Riphah International University). The event was further enriched by the participation of faculty members from the nursing department, including Prof. Dr. M. Zubair and Prof. Dr. Mansoor, alongside members of the RIO team.

The collaboration reflects a shared vision between both institutions to promote international academic cooperation, student and faculty mobility, joint research initiatives, and cross-cultural learning opportunities. The partnership is expected to create new avenues for knowledge exchange and strengthen educational ties between Pakistan and Malaysia.

Special appreciation was extended to Prof. Dr. Humaira Athar and the entire RIO team, particularly Mr. M. Nauman Mansoor, for their leadership, dedication, and continuous efforts in making this collaboration possible.

Through strategic international partnerships, Riphah International University continues to enhance its global academic footprint and provide students and faculty with meaningful opportunities for international exposure and collaborative learning.
