The Faculty of Pharmacy at MIU hosted the highly anticipated annual tradition known as the White Coat Ceremony, which marks a milestone for pharmacy students as they transition into the professional world of pharmaceutics. This ceremony symbolizes their unwavering commitment to patient care, professionalism, and ethical practice. It is a momentous occasion that celebrates the dedication and future contributions of our aspiring pharmacists.

While white coat ceremonies are celebrated worldwide in medical institutions, this year’s ceremony for MIU Pharmacy seniors’ class of 2023 held a unique twist. The Media and Website Committee at the Faculty of Pharmacy organized a vibrant parade for the senior students. The procession began at the faculty building and led them to the main festival hall in the university’s main building, guided by esteemed university officials including the University Vice-President for Education and Student Affairs, the Dean of the Faculty of Pharmacy, as well as Vice-Deans for Education and Student Affairs, Acting Vice Dean for Environmental Affairs and Community Service, department heads, and faculty members.

The festival hall buzzed with anticipation as the professors addressed the senior class. Their inspiring speeches offered invaluable advice as the students approach their final days at the university, highlighting the university’s commitment to equipping them with essential resources and skills.  Following the speeches, the students were individually presented with the coveted white coats on stage, marking a symbolic moment in their journey. They then gathered for a class photo to capture the moment alongside faculty members who proudly wore their own white coats.

Notably, this event was organized under the slogan of “Students for Students,” where 11 senior students worked collaboratively with the members of the Website and Media Committee to organize this memorable event.  Students expressed their appreciation to the faculty and staff for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
