On 1 February 2026, the Interior Design Department at Tishk International University (TIU) organized a staff lunch as a gesture of appreciation for the continuous hard work, commitment, and professionalism of its academic team throughout the academic year. The event aimed to recognize the efforts of the lecturers and assistants who contribute significantly to the development of the department and the success of its students.

The gathering was attended by the Head of the Department, Mr. Dlman Azeez, along with all full-time and part-time lecturers and teaching assistants. The lunch provided an opportunity for staff members to meet in a relaxed and friendly setting outside their regular academic responsibilities. During the event, colleagues exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and engaged in meaningful conversations beyond daily work-related matters.

Such social activities play an important role in strengthening professional relationships, enhancing communication among staff, and promoting teamwork. By creating a supportive and positive environment, the department continues to foster collaboration, mutual respect, and a strong sense of community among its members.
