Growing up in small village of Azad Kashmir "Dullyah Jattan", I always dreamed big. After completing my M.Sc. in Physics at Sargodha University, life took an unexpected turn when my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer. I took on two jobs to support my family, putting my studies on hold. Sadly, I lost him. I honor his memory through education. I enrolled in a Master's program at the University of Management and Technology in Lahore, where I earned both the Rector's Merit Award and the Dean's Merit Award. After that, I was thrilled to got a junior researcher position in the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions project in Finland. My journey took me to Germany for training in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry, followed by Field Cycling Relaxometry training at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland.Next up is an exciting opportunity at École Normale Supérieure paris. I hope my story inspires others from small places to chase their dreams, no matter the obstacles.

I, Rafi Ullah, a grateful former student of UMT, would like to express my sincere appreciation to the faculty, Head of the Physics Department, and especially Dr. Tanvir Hussain. Their guidance and support during my Bachelor's in Physics from 2018 to 2022 were invaluable. From the start of my studies at UMT, I was fortunate to be part of a dedicated faculty who nurtured my passion for physics. Under the supervision of Dr. Tanvir Hussain, I embarked on a project focused on the preparation of WO3/Cu2 film heterostructures for hydrogen energy sources using chemical vapor deposition. Today, as a Masters student in Control, Microsystems, and Microelectronics at Universität Bremen, I carry with me the solid foundation laid during my time at UMT. The educational experience and support received from UMT's faculty and Dr. Tanvir Hussain continue to inspire and guide my academic pursuits. I am forever grateful to UMT, the faculty, the Head of the Physics Department unwavering dedication to my education and growth
