FUI is distinct in its outlook as it regards students as the key
stakeholders in the entire process of learning and accords its
students' interests the highest priority. The faculty and administration
facilitate students' learning and academic growth. FUI is constantly
striving for creating an environment at its campus which nurtures
students’ intellect and provides hands-on experience and exposure
to students so that they are able to work in any given situation
effectively.
FUI firmly believes that the function of a university is to act as a
catalyst in transforming and transfiguring young and impressionable
minds to grownup individuals with broadened visions and brilliant
ideas. This approach translates into recognition that while academic
excellence is the cornerstone of any successful programme, it is
equally important that our graduates possess the confidence and
character as well as a repertoire of skills which can ensure success in
their practical lives; and this is acquired and accomplished with
finesse.
