A thought-provoking conversation on the future of education.

KSBL was delighted to host Dr. Noman Javed, Director AI and Dean Undergraduate Studies at UMT for a Guest Speaker Session on “Teaching in the Age of Distracted Minds: Design Thinking and AI for Classroom Engagement.”

A New Role at KSBL — Shaping the Student Experience.

At KSBL, we believe a student's journey is defined not just by what they learn, but by how they are supported, guided, and empowered along the way.

We are looking for a passionate and dynamic leader to head our newly established Office of Student Experience and Leadership Formation (SELF), someone who understands that true education goes beyond the classroom, and that building Character-Driven Leadership requires both structure and soul.

As Head of SELF, you will oversee student services, financial support, scholarships, career development, and alumni engagement all under one roof, with one clear purpose: putting students first.

If you believe that higher education should shape not only careers but character, we want to hear from you.
