Congratulations to Ritik Santosh on the successful defense of his MS Thesis titled “Histopathological Image Analysis for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Classification Using Deep Learning Models.”

It was an insightful session highlighting the application of AI in histopathology. Special thanks to the Supervisor Dr. Maryam Mahsal Khan and our evaluators Dr. Maqsood M. Khan, Dr. Fahad Masood, and Dr. Ghassan Husnain for their time, guidance, and valuable feedback.

Well done, Ritik. Your hard work and dedication truly stood out.

"The Departments of Computer Science and Software Engineering conducted their Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) meeting on 13 November 2025, bringing together distinguished experts from industry, academia, and alumni.

The meeting provided a dynamic platform for meaningful dialogue on aligning academic programs with the evolving needs of the industry. The Board appreciated the proactive measures taken by both departments to strengthen industry–academia linkages, enhance student exposure to real-world technologies, and foster technical, entrepreneurial, and innovation-driven skills among students.

After detailed deliberations, the Industrial Advisory Board endorsed all agenda points proposed by both departments, acknowledging the strategic direction and commitment toward continuous improvement, curriculum relevance, and future-readiness."
