At the University of Technology (UOT), we pride ourselves not only on our academic excellence but also on our unwavering commitment to upholding strong work ethics and values. Integrity and honesty lie at the heart of our institution, shaping the conduct of our employees and creating an environment of trust and respect.

A recent incident at UOT’s campus exemplifies the remarkable ethical standards embraced by our staff. One of our dedicated canteen staff members discovered a lost purse containing a substantial sum of money, approximately 10,000. Instead of succumbing to temptation, this individual demonstrated remarkable integrity and promptly returned the purse to its rightful owner. This act of honesty showcases the exceptional character and values nurtured within our university community.

At UOT, we believe that ethics and values are not mere buzzwords but fundamental principles that guide our actions. We strive to cultivate an atmosphere where honesty, transparency, and accountability flourish. Our employees are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in their professional conduct, ensuring that every interaction and decision reflects integrity and fairness.

Integrity serves as the cornerstone of our institution, fostering an environment where trust is paramount. We recognize that our students, faculty, and staff are entrusted with the responsibility of creating a positive impact on society, and this responsibility extends beyond the boundaries of academia. Through their words and actions, our employees exemplify the values we hold dear, setting a powerful example for the next generation of leaders.

We firmly believe that ethical conduct goes hand in hand with excellence in education and research. The act of the canteen staff member returning the lost purse is a testament to the values ingrained within UOT’s employees. It serves as a reminder that our commitment to integrity and honesty goes beyond the boundaries of our roles. It is an inherent part of who we are as individuals and as a collective community.

At UOT, we take immense pride in the ethics and values that define us. They are not just ideals; they are the guiding principles that shape our decisions and actions. We remain steadfast in our commitment to nurturing a culture of integrity and honesty, creating an environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to a better tomorrow.
