سکالر کے تحقیقی مقالے کا عنوان تھا:

(The introduction, Methodologies and Distinctive Features of Selected Arabic Exegesis (1301AH–1445AH): A Research Study)

یونیورسٹی کے قواعد و ضوابط کے مطابق مقالہ بیرونی ممتحنین کے طور پر ملائیشیا اور متحدہ عرب امارات کے دو ممتاز پروفیسرز کو بھیجا گیا، جنہوں نے تحقیقی معیار کو تسلی بخش قرار دیتے ہوئے مثبت رپورٹس ارسال کیں اور سکالر کو پی ایچ ڈی کی ڈگری دینے کی سفارش کی۔

بحمد اللہ، آج کامیاب دفاع کے بعد انجینئر ڈاکٹر الیاس صالح نے ڈاکٹریٹ (PhD) کی ڈگری حاصل کر لی۔

واضح رہے کہ انجینئر ڈاکٹر الیاس صالح، ڈاکٹر حافظ صالح الدین، پروفیسر آف اسلامک اسٹڈیز، عبد الولی خان یونیورسٹی مردان کے بڑے صاحبزادے، مردان کی معروف علمی و روحانی شخصیت پیرِ طریقت, شیخ القرآن مولانا محمد کامل بابا جی رحمہ اللہ کے پوتے، اور مولانا ڈاکٹر حافظ نظام الدین کے بھتیجے ہیں۔

اس موقع پر انجینئر ڈاکٹر الیاس صالح نے اپنی اس کامیابی کو اللہ تعالیٰ کے خصوصی فضل و کرم، اپنے والدین، اساتذۂ کرام، بزرگوں کی تربیت، دعاؤں اور اہلِ خانہ کی مسلسل حوصلہ افزائی کا ثمر قرار دیا۔

The Career Counseling and Placement Center (CCPC) facilitated the participation of students from the Departments of Computer Science and Physics at Abdul Wali Khan University Mardan (AWKUM) in the Indus Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS) Expo 2026, held at the Pak-China Friendship Centre, Islamabad.

The two-day national expo, organized by Ignite – National Technology Fund under the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication (MoITT), in collaboration with the National Centre of Robotics and Automation (NCRA) and the NUST College of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (E&ME). brought together universities, researchers, startups, industry leaders, policymakers, and technology professionals from across Pakistan to showcase innovations in robotics, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, drone technology, and industrial automation.

The students were accompanied by the CCPC team, including the Director, Dr. Muhammad Bilal, and Assistant Directors Usman Shamroz and Hazrat Bilal. During the visit, the students explored cutting-edge technologies, interacted with researchers, entrepreneurs, and industry experts, and gained valuable insights into the latest developments in robotics and artificial intelligence. The visit provided an excellent platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and fostering stronger industry–academia collaboration. It also reflected the vision of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Dr. Jamil Ahmad, to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and professional competencies required to excel in an increasingly technology-driven and globally interconnected world, thereby enhancing their career readiness and future employability.
