With the beginning of the new academic year 2026–2027, it is my great pleasure and honor to warmly welcome you back to your classrooms at your university, your second home and your distinguished academic institution. Your return today represents a continuation of the journey of success and excellence that you have firmly begun. Over the past years, you have demonstrated outstanding academic performance and a high level of commitment. The remarkable progress achieved by our university in the quality of education, academic accreditation, and international rankings would not have been possible without your hard work, dedication, and commitment to raising the name of Al-Mustaqbal University high. My dear students, The advanced stages of your university studies require deeper academic learning, greater focus on practical and research skills, and serious preparation for assessment examinations and the labor market. At the University Presidency, colleges, and deanships, we are fully committed to providing the best educational, research, and technological environments that enable you to achieve excellence and distinction. This year, I encourage you to continue your perseverance, make the most of the resources, laboratories, and available academic and sustainability initiatives, and be the best supporters and ambassadors of your university. I also encourage you to be positive role models for the new students joining us this year. I wish you an academic year filled with achievement and success, full of activity and excellence. May Allah grant you all success and guide your steps along the path of goodness. Al-Mustaqbal University The first University in Iraq
