“EMU is a World University”
Congratulating the students for choosing EMU and successfully completing their studies at the university, Prof. Dr. Osam asked for their opinions about the university and how it differs from other universities. The students spoke one by one indicating that they had a wonderful time at EMU and that they were very satisfied to see that EMU is a world university no different from universities in Europe or the USA.
