In Loving Memory of Prof. Dr. Abdul Rehman Memon

Prof. Dr. Abdul Rehman Memon, a remarkable individual, left for eternal abode on 7th August 2023 in Canada. His legacy is one that has left an indelible mark on the world of education and engineering.
Dr. Memon was a visionary leader who served as the 8th Vice Chancellor of Mehran University of Engineering and Technology (MUET) in Jamshoro. His leadership was instrumental in ushering in transformative changes that have shaped the university’s current stature. Under his guidance, MUET achieved milestones like the implementation of ISO 9001 standards, the introduction of an annual academic calendar, numerous enhancements in the academic arena, and even the inception of the Textile Department – a testament to his visionary thinking and commitment to diversifying educational offerings.
Born on February 23, 1941, Dr. Memon hailed from the city of Hala. He was not only a distinguished Electrical Engineer, but also a Hafiz-e-Quran. His profound faith was reflected in his work, notably in his book “Telescoping Al-Quran for Applications in Engineering.” His quest to uncover the engineering insights within the Quran was a testament to his inquisitive spirit and dedication to knowledge.
As we remember and honor his contributions, let us extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and the entire MUET community. His passing is a loss that will be deeply felt by all those who were touched by his wisdom, guidance, and commitment to education and engineering excellence.
May his legacy continue to inspire future generations.
