Representing academic excellence from the College of Banking and Financial Studies, Muscat — with global recognition in Rome.
We are delighted to spotlight the recent global achievement of Dr. Mythili Kolluru from the College of Banking and Financial Studies, Muscat, Oman, who earned the Best Presentation Award at the 9th International Conference on Education and Distance Learning (ICEDL 2025) held in Rome, Italy.
Her presentation, co-authored with Miss Shobana, was titled:
“Benchmarking Higher Education and National Competitiveness: Historical Insights from Oman” a compelling research piece linking higher education with a country’s standing in global competitiveness metrics.
The award highlights the emerging intellectual leadership from the Gulf region, with Dr. Kolluru’s contribution offered critical perspectives that resonated strongly with both academic scholars and policy influencers.
Her voice at ICEDL 2025 brought forward not just data-driven insight, but also a vision for transformative education that transcends borders.
We applaud her dedication and scholarly brilliance and hope to see many more such powerful narratives coming from the region, inspiring change and fostering knowledge beyond boundaries.
