Tariq delivers lecture at NCT
MUSCAT — Tariq Hilal Al Barwani, online manager of Nawras, delivered a lecture
on ‘e-security, career planning and opportunities in the IT sector in Nizwa
College of Technology (NCT).’
Tariq predicted that the IT sector would play a pivotal role in the
Sultanate’s professional scenario and felt that the “Information Technology
(IT) is at the heart of many businesses today. It affects everyone and at all
levels, be it students, professionals, workers, managers and organisations
because it alters and changes the nature of work.”
Tariq kept the audience enticed during the two-hour long colloquy and
motivated them to have an open discourse with the speaker.
The audience got a chance to clarify their queries on various IT-related
issues and Oman’s current ranking in the IT field.
He advocated his work ethics: ‘Be a good listener, work hard and never waste
time and never stop learning.’
He commended on the high quality of NCT’s academic deliberations, projects and
innovative software development.
The lecture was part of the ongoing workshop/lecture series organised by Nizwa
College of Technology to sensitise the academic community about the emerging
disciplines, trends and professional avenues.
Dr Ahmed Al Ghassani, the dean of NCT, said that Tariq’s lecture was meant to
throw light on the infinite possibilities of the IT field — in the private and
public sectors.
He pointed out that such contacts with the experts in each field would provide
the much-needed exposure to the academic community of NCT. .
