Raising Awareness on Thalassemia Disease Community-University Partnership Project

The International Relations and Diplomacy Department, Faculty of Administrative Sciences and Economics at Tishk International University, organised Community- University Partnership Project titled Raising Awareness on Thalassemia Disease on June 5th, 2022. The Thalassemia Centre provided the speaker for the seminar, a specialist doctor on Thalassemia. They also invited thalassemia patients to participate in the seminar. The Department of Diplomacy and International Relations provided the venue for the project, and many faculty students participated in the seminar. 

The project was an excellent opportunity for university students, staff and guests to discover the Thalassemia disease, its prevention and possible treatment. The project’s main objective is to increase awareness among university students and society on Thalassemia and discuss prevention and cure mechanisms to limit the disease. 

The Faculty of Administrative Sciences and Economics was initially launched with the Department of Business and Management amid the establishment of Tishk International University in 2008. Three additional departments were formed in 2014-2015: Accounting Department, Banking and Finance Department, and the International Relations and Diplomacy Department.

Currently, our faculty is ranked as the most demanded faculty of the university, comprising the highest number of students. This is highly accredited to how efficiently our students are equipped, with the highest standards of knowledge and soft and hard employability skills required to fill the market gap and prepare the best graduates, an essential element for national development and prosperity.
