President's Opening Year Address

The sweet smell of kindness of beginning a new educational year is coming from the university. As the supreme leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, said: "This year would hopefully be the year of the epic saga of political and economic improvements" (12.30.1391, 14.33, our translation). Therefore, in order to fulfill the requirements of the supreme leader, we should try very hard to improve the science, reduce the gaps, produce knowledge, and reach scientific independency more than ever, which are essential for economical, political, and social independency. With the highest respect and best congratulations, I want to draw the students’ attentions to some particular points.

1.     One of the best results of Islamic Revolution is the establishment of Islamic Azad University which has become one of the major principles of education in Iran.

2.     If the students just think about getting a degree, and becoming teachers and professors, or later teaching others, this will result in a closed repetitious circulation in educational system. Therefore in order to overcome such a problem, the interaction between the universities and industry must be expanded.

3.     Man is ambitious to be immortalized or wants to leave behind an important eternal work after his death. To produce such a great work is not easy but is certainly possible by hardworking and trusting in God. Therefore besides scientific attempts, all should trust God, who is our only support in life. Metaphorically, by means of two wings of trust in God and scientific attempts man would be equipped to produce an eternal creation.
