14 More alumni success... One of our Forensic Science alumni has gone on to great things in the Royal Oman Police. S akina Abdulkhaliq (Al Lawati), who graduated from Keele with a BSc in Forensic Science with Chemistry in 2016, has joined the Royal Oman Police. Sakina completed a one-year military training programme and graduated from the ‘Sultan Qaboos Academy for Police Sciences’ as a lieutenant, having achieved first place in this programme; for that she was awarded the Sword of Honour. The Sultanate of Oman has always honoured Omani women in the field of work, who contribute to the development and success of the country. Therefore, Sakina was awarded the honour of leading the military parade on her graduation ceremony, which took place on 5th November. By doing so, Sakina is only the second female ever in Oman history to lead a military parade. Join our networking and e-mentoring platform at www.keeleconnect.org
