“Being awarded your degree today marks the culmination of a long journey, a journey of effort and perseverance,” DTU Provost Dr Le Nguyen Bao offered heartfelt and sincere words to the graduates in his opening remarks. “Especially in recent years, you’ve faced significant challenges, including the Covid-19 pandemic. As classes then moved online, you had to cope with difficult learning conditions, yet your resilience and unyielding spirit allowed you to patiently continue your studies. You’ve not only overcome physical challenges but also mental ones, challenges requiring patience and self-discipline. Today’s achievement is well-earned and stands as a testament to your persistence and unwavering commitment.
“As you step into the world beyond, you’ll face an ever more rapidly evolving job market where science & technology, and particularly Artificial Intelligence or AI, are opening up new opportunities but also creating new challenges. The fast-paced development of AI is transforming not only how we work but also how we think and approach problems. These technologies not only promise to increase work productivity and improve quality of life, but also pose significant challenges for those preparing to enter the job market. The world is constantly changing, and you must also be flexible, perceptive, and ready to embrace every change. The reality, though, is that only those with a solid knowledge base are able to fully harness and master these advanced technologies. The way we create and command AI reflects our level of understanding and expertise.

“Your journey ahead is still long and will be fraught with obstacles and challenges, but it will also be rich with opportunities. You must remain steadfast and resilient in all situations. No matter the hardship, always remember: you can overcome anything if you believe in yourself, in the power of learning, and in the values you’ve cultivated. The educational values instilled by your families and DTU will be a strong foundation for you to go further and aim higher, and to overcome all challenges in your careers. Believe in the path you’ve chosen, because that’s the one that’ll lead you to your dreams and future success.”
On this occasion, DTU awarded degrees to 2,310 medical doctors, pharmacists, engineers, architects, and bachelors. Among them, 5.67% graduated summa cum laude, and 12.22% magna cum laude. These impressive figures reflect both DTU’s quality of education and the relentless effort by the students throughout their studies.
