Mangaluru: The Graduation ceremony of the Father Muller Charitable Institutions; Father Muller Medical College, Father Muller College of Allied Health Sciences and Father Muller College (Speech and Hearing) was held at the Father Muller Convention Centre on 31st March 2023 in a solemn ceremony befitting the oath the graduates took.
Fr Richard Aloysius Coelho Director of FMCI welcomed the gathering and introduced the chief guest and guest of honour. He highlighted the ethos of the institutions and wished well for the future of the new graduates.
Dr M K Ramesh (Hon’ble Vice Chancellor, Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Bengaluru) who was the chief guest of the day, said that one of the toughest courses are the health sciences courses, and only around 20% of students get into higher education in India. Out of the 20% only 8% give the entrance examination of which 80,000 have a chance to become doctors. Mangalore has many colleges but Father Muller stands tall having the highest load of patients with the best faculty. Reverence to Fr Augustus Muller must be paid and the dedication of the management to continue in his footsteps is appreciable. Being in Mangalore is the best thing because it has the beauty and culture which respects each other. There is one constant in life is only Change – thus the momentum to the next phase in life is expected a lot from you, either in higher academics or being a breadwinner.
Datuk Dr Heric Corray (Chief Operating Officer- Sabah Healthcare, Malaysia) the guest of honour stressed life as a changing set of experiences with the medical realm as a noble profession. Congratulation to the graduates for achieving the milestone with triumph. No one has it all the time – Character of strength to which one must focus and be disciplined in life. Patients will put their lives in your hands, so maintain professionalism as a caregiver. No sharing of personal data which might risk the privacy of the patients.
In his presidential remark Most Rev. Dr Peter Paul Saldanha, Bishop of Mangalore Diocese and President of FMCI thanked the parents for being a support to their wards and the institutions. The efforts put into your education should be put to use for the good of mankind. Man cannot do it alone but needs wisdom and Providence from God. Your teachers stand proud today and so is your management who have left no stone unturned to provide you with the best in your academic pursuits.
The graduation witnessed by the invited parents and family was organized to perfection by a team of faculty and staff volunteers who helped with the needs and well-being of the gathered. The list of student and faculty achievements was presented by the respective college heads. Dr Antony Sylvan D’Souza Dean FMMC, Dr Hilda D’Souza Principal FMCOAHS and Prof Akhilesh PM Principal of FMC read the reports of their colleges respectively.
