At the end of his speech, while emphasizing that the future of Iran depends on its elite youth and they can definitely reach the highest peaks of science and knowledge in the world, he also promised financial support to all the teams that reached the final stage of the first round of “programming with financial data" and emphasized: “The mechanism of this support has also been determined and will be implemented soon.”

 

In this ceremony, Dr. Masoud Rabbani, the faculty member and director of the Industrial Engineering department of Khatam University, while appreciating those involved in organizing this competition, praised the activities of the president of Khatam University, who, according to him, always proposes new ideas to attracting and nurturing elite forces and fulfilling social responsibility.

 

He described the level of holding the first "programming with financial data" competition as very high and pointed out that Khatam University has been among the first 4 universities in the country for students to choose in the field of "financial systems" in recent years. He also reminded: “Since 2022 onwards, this trend has become the first choice among the industrial engineering fields of this university, and along with the ‘systems modeling and data analysis’ trend, it is one of the most popular trends in the field of industrial engineering, which, of course, completely arose from the developments in this field.”
