Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber receives his doctorate degree from City University

Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber today received a Doctor of Science degree from the Vice-Chancellor of City University at a graduation ceremony held at the historic Guildhall in the City of London.

The degree was awarded for his remarkable success in commerce and enterprise and for his relentless efforts and personal commitment to education.

In his speech Professor Miller, Deputy Vice-Chancellor of City University recognized MBI Al Jaber's business acumen and philanthropy but most of all his determination to engage wholeheartedly in his vision of a better society for all. MBI Al Jaber has already been awarded a fellowship at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London where he founded the MBI Al Jaber Chair in Middle East Studies. Through his trust, the MBI Al Jaber Foundation, and his on-going work with UNESCO, he has demonstrated his belief in education as the best way to create conditions for sustainable development.

MBI Al Jaber Foundation

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation was born from Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber's desire to promote better understanding between the peoples of the Middle East and the wider world.

We believe that better understanding will be achieved through education and an awareness of and respect for each others’ cultures.
