Promoting sustainable development through education

SEGi University’s dedication to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was evident in the Faculty of Dentistry’s recent events. On 20th April 2023, the faculty organised an internal research colloquium and A Skillful Raya competition for undergraduates in alignment with SDG 4 – Quality Education. 

The internal research colloquium showcased presentations from undergraduate students, with a panel of judges including Dr. Narendra Babu (Faculty of Pharmacy), Dr. Indira Madhavan (Faculty of Optometry), and Dr. Elise Monerasinghe (Faculty of Dentistry). These judges evaluated the presentations, while dental faculty members and undergraduates attended as audience members. 

The Skillful Raya competition involved various teams, each employing different dental materials to demonstrate their skills based on a chosen theme. The triumphant teams received certificates in recognition of their efforts. 

SEGi University’s commitment to the SDGs is apparent through its initiatives to encourage quality education via activities such as these. By offering opportunities for undergraduates to display their research and skills, the Faculty of Dentistry contributes to developing proficient professionals who can positively impact their communities. 

SEGi University’s dedication to the SDGs is reflected in its efforts to promote sustainable development through education and research. The Faculty of Dentistry’s activities are just one example of SEGi’s commitment to creating a better future for all.
