KANGAR, Nov 7 — Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin (UniSIRAJ) graduates must be trustworthy and uphold integrity, respect differences and stand by the truth - qualities that should guide them as they embark on their careers and future lives.

Raja Muda of Perlis Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail, who is also UniSIRAJ Chancellor, said knowledge developed one’s ability to think and solve problems, while good manners reflected one’s values.

“Ensure that academic excellence and expertise are always accompanied by strong moral values and principles,” he said at the 9th UniSIRAJ Convocation Ceremony at Dewan 2020 here today.

Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra said that in an era of artificial intelligence (AI) and digital advancement, the pursuit of knowledge must always go hand in hand with noble values and strong principles.
