Words alone cannot capture the exclamation and inspiration that filled the room at our seminar on “Potential Career Paths in Solar PV Energy Technologies”, held recently at Green University of Bangladesh (GUB). This extraordinary event, organized by the GUB EEE Club in partnership with GCiA (Green University Center for International Affairs) and IEEE PES, has left a lasting impression on all who attended.

The seminar opened with an attentive welcome by Md. Ashaduzzaman Niloy, Lecturer, EEE, who set the stage for this grand seminar. Our special guest, Prof. Dr. Md. Saiful Azad, Dean of the Faculty of Science and Engineering, took the stage next, delivering a truly motivating speech that resonated with everyone. His words urged us to embrace innovation and sustainability, highlighting the significant role Electrical & Electronic Engineering plays in shaping the future.

Then came the moment of brilliance. The session was entrusted to our distinguished session chair, Prof. Dr. Md. Quamrul Ahsan, a highly respected figure in our department. He gracefully introduced the keynote speaker, Prof. Dr. Nowshad Amin, Professor, Department of EEE, AIUB, by giving a compelling overview of his groundbreaking research and invaluable contributions to solar photovoltaic technologies. As Dr. Ahsan uniquely spoke of Prof. Amin’s incredible achievements, the audience was in disbelief, realizing the profound impact of his work on global renewable energy solutions.

What followed was nothing short of spectacular. Prof. Dr. Nowshad Amin delivered a keynote session that can only be described as transformative. His knowledge, insight, and passion for solar PV energy swept through the audience, engaging us on a journey that opened our eyes to the vast career and research possibilities in this cutting-edge sector. His presentation captivated everyone, from students to seasoned faculty members, who were all thrilled by his clear and engaging delivery.

But the seminar didn’t stop there. An interactive Q&A session saw participants pose intriguing questions, and Prof. Amin’s thoughtful and insightful responses made the session even more enriching. His ability to connect with the audience on such a technical subject was simply inspiring.
