Doha College has seen another generation of students off to pastures new, at its inaugural Graduation Ceremony held at the Shangri-La Hotel Doha.
Last year, the college clocked its most impressive set of examination results in history. These results enabled the 90-strong cohort of Year 13 students, and an additional five Year 12 students, to continue their journeys along a variety of pathways. These options include attending universities in the UK, the US, Canada, Netherlands, Ireland, Australia, Pakistan and Qatar, and joining even the Royal Navy or completing military service.
Equally impressive is the diversity of university courses that the DC graduates are pursuing: medicine, engineering, law, architecture, arts, sports and exercise science, physiotherapy, psychology, criminology, history, politics, economics, accounting, actuarial sciences, film, photography, computer science, robotics, linguistics, acting, geography and zoology.
Some of the students spent most of their education in Doha College, and leaving it brings mixed emotions.
Keyona Fazli, who joined the school at age four, shares her impressions of the school.
Watching people who I’ve known for fourteen years and those who I am so close with, yet have only known for two years, made me so happy. These are the people I grew up with, and Doha College is the place that has made me the person I am today. I am excited for what is to come at university, but I will always look forward to coming back in the holidays to visit my parents, and of course Doha College.’
Doha College offers the widest array of subjects for A Levels in Qatar, delivering consistently excellent results in both core and creative subjects. Their offer was further broadened last year, with the introduction of three new subjects: environmental science, sociology and travel and tourism, as well as the BTEC Diploma in Sports Coaching.
