Dr. Khan added: 'We believe that this kind of exposure will help our students develop a deeper appreciation for the role of law enforcement in society and prepare them better for their future roles.'
The visit concluded with a roundtable discussion where both parties discussed potential areas of collaboration, including joint research projects and internships. This interaction is expected to pave the way for more such visits in the future.
