Doha: University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST) recently organised a talent night called “UDST’s Got Talent”. 

The event brought together students, faculty, and staff to compete and celebrate the diversity and talents of the UDST community across various performing arts.

This year’s competition included over 50 participants taking part in 19 performances that dazzled the audience, from group and solo musical acts and dances, magic tricks, stand-up comedy, and more.

“UDST’s Got Talent” is a night organised by Student Engagement, a division of Student Affairs, and aims at encouraging students to develop and use their skills and abilities in a fun and vibrant way outside the academic setting. Many of the musical participants were members of UDST’s music club.

Commenting on the event, Dr. Salem Al Naemi, President of UDST, said: “At UDST, we aim to give all our students a unique experience that will stay with them for life. There is no doubt that attending university is a way to acquire knowledge and build a promising career, but it is also an amazing opportunity for students to discover their abilities, socialize, develop their personalities, and build friendships. This event is part of many activities that run all year long on campus to create a healthy and vibrant environment for the students. I wish to congratulate the three winners, and I look forward to witnessing the continued success of all our artists and commend their dedication to all forms of art”.

The ceremony ended with the announcement of the top three performers: the third place went to piano player Asma Bin Ghazal, the second place went to the Indo-Pak Dance Group; and the winner of the UDST’s Got Talent was the group of singers and instrumentalists, the “Miscreants.”
