On the annual Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) Day on April 4, the College of Sciences and Information Systems organized a seminar last Thursday at the MEA Conference Hall of Rafik Hariri University (RHU) campus in the town of Meshref south of Beirut. On the occasion, College dean, Mohamad Ibrahim Laddan, said that RHU is the only institution in Lebanon that has an academic membership in the International Communication Union (ITU) which organized the ICT day celebrated in April of each year in over 150 countries across the world. Ladon maintained that the prime objective of the said day is to create an environment that enables and inspires young Lebanese women to pursue their studies in the field of ICT. "This industry is developing very rapidly and controls every detail of our virtual daily life,” Laddan stated. A number of women students from the university and neighboring schools attended the event to learn about the experiences of pioneering women and their leadership role in the sector.
