Mr Shafiq Rahman Abdullah Khan
Mr Shafiq R. A. Khan is the Managing Director of Al-Faisal Colleges. Mr Khan's vision started more than 25 years ago, where an idea became a reality. Mr Khan's goal was to see future generations of students learning at Al-Faisal Colleges so that they could contribute to the Australian society and make a positive impact in the world. This vision expanded into the acquisition and establishment of 3 additional Al-Faisal College schools.
Mr Khan brings great insight, depth of knowledge and understanding to the palnning and construction of all Al-Faisal College buildings/sites. One can only marvel at the use of space and the inclusion of key design concepts and principles. |
