🎉 A Milestone Worth Celebrating!

We’re incredibly proud to share that our student, Mohamad Hani Abou Naasse, has officially launched the first version of a prototype designed to detect and neutralize antibiotic residues in food! 🧪🤖

This innovative project was developed by a dedicated interdisciplinary team — three outstanding Chemical Engineering students and Mohamad, a Computer Science student. While his teammates focused on creating safe and effective chemical applications, Mohamad led the design and construction of the machine and built a web application to control the system and monitor results in real-time.

🌟 The result? First place among all the competing teams in the Idealab program! 👏

As Mohamad shared:

“This accomplishment wouldn’t have been possible without the ongoing support of ULYP and the belief in students’ potential.”

“Your investment in my growth and education empowered me to lead, learn beyond my field, and turn an ambitious idea into reality. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in my potential and giving me the opportunity to become someone who drives change — not just dreams of it.”

He also expressed heartfelt gratitude to the Idealab program for providing the platform, mentorship, and resources to turn their bold idea into a reality.

We are beyond proud of Mohamad and his team, and we can’t wait to see how they continue to develop and scale their prototype.

💡 Because real change starts with bold ideas and teamwork.

📣 Success Story: Rami Umar Sulaiman | Mechanical Engineering | Near East University

I would love to share my journey and how ULYP has supported me along the way.

When I first started university, I faced many challenges—grappling with difficult concepts and adapting to a new academic environment was not easy. The fast-paced learning style and demands of university life made my first year overwhelming.

However, I refused to give up. With determination, I developed effective study strategies, sought help when needed, and kept pushing forward. Over time, I adapted, and today, I am proud to say that I am excelling in my studies. I rank among the top students at my university, particularly in mechanical engineering and other engineering courses.

ULYP has played a crucial role in my journey, offering the support, motivation, and resources I needed to overcome these challenges. I am truly grateful for the opportunities and guidance that have shaped my academic path.

📣 Success Story: Mohammad Naeem Al Dalo | Software Engineering | Near East University

Seven months ago, I participated in a programming competition where teams had to develop a platform or a website. There were five groups—Beta, Alpha, Gamma, Omega, and Delta—each consisting of six members from different universities. I was part of the Beta group, and our task was to create a sewing shop mediator platform. This platform allowed providers to apply for membership and enabled clients to request clothing items for rent or purchase.

My role was to develop the registration page using Django, a Python framework for building web applications efficiently. However, I had no prior experience with Django, and we only had five days to complete the project. This meant I had just three days to learn Django before coding and submitting my work to the team for integration.

To manage, I dedicated six hours daily to learning Django, breaking my study sessions into smaller segments to avoid burnout. On the first day, I struggled to understand the concepts—it felt overwhelming. But instead of giving up, I took detailed notes from various online resources, even if I didn’t fully grasp them at first. By the second day, I turned to YouTube tutorials to clarify difficult concepts and answer my questions. Slowly, things started to make sense. By the third day, I had a solid understanding of Django and how to approach my task. After completing my learning, I took a break and ensured I got enough rest to start coding effectively the next day.

Initially, coding the registration page felt manageable, but as I progressed, I encountered many challenges. However, I remained persistent, solving each issue as it arose. Eventually, I completed my part and submitted my code to the team, allowing us to integrate everything smoothly.

Finally, it was time to present our projects. The competition was intense, but in the end, our team won first place and received certificates for our achievement.

This experience taught me that no matter how little time you have, you can learn something new if you have self-confidence and persistence. Never give up—keep trying until you achieve your goal.

📣 Success Story: Nour Mohamad Wehbe | Double Major: Biomedical Engineering & Electrical and Electronics Engineering | Eastern Mediterranean University

At just 18, I made the life-changing decision to leave everything familiar behind and study abroad. Pursuing a double major in Biomedical Engineering and Electrical & Electronics Engineering was not just an academic challenge—it was a test of resilience.

Adapting to a new culture, making new friends, and starting from scratch wasn’t easy. Living in a dormitory with strangers felt daunting at first, but over time, they became my second family.

While I have consistently achieved high honors, my journey has been far from easy. Being far from my family, who remain in a war-torn home country, has been one of the hardest emotional challenges I’ve faced. Yet, these struggles have only strengthened my determination.

Despite the uncertainty and stress, I have never given up. Every late-night study session, every exam, and every project brings me closer to a future where I can make a real difference. My circumstances do not define me—they fuel my ambition. And my story is still being written.

I am incredibly grateful to the Unite Lebanon Youth Project (ULYP) for making this journey possible. Their support has been invaluable, and I truly appreciate the opportunities they have given me.

💡 To anyone facing challenges—stay focused on your dreams. Keep pushing forward.

🚀 DON’T LET ANYTHING STOP YOU.

📣 Success Story: Hasan Maher Hamid | Mechanical Engineering | Eastern Mediterranean University

" When I completed my high school education, I found myself at a crossroads, unsure of what the future held. The financial burden of university seemed like an insurmountable challenge, and I wasn’t planning to continue my studies. Then, in a moment I will never forget, ULYP called me with life-changing news—I had been awarded a full scholarship. That call not only opened the door to higher education but also reignited my ambition and drive.

I traveled abroad to Northern Cyprus to pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering at EMU, stepping into an exciting new world filled with fresh challenges, friendships, and experiences. Although I arrived just a week before midterms and had already missed many classes, I was determined to succeed. Despite the rough start, I worked hard and managed to make it onto the Honor List that semester. Over the years, I continued to push my limits, earning High Honor distinctions in nearly all my semesters. My passion for design and engineering was recognized by professors who took my projects for further study, with some even wanting to publish my work under their names. One of my proudest moments was when a professor requested my design work before the deadline to use as a reference for real-life applications.

Now, in my final semester, I am looking ahead to the next chapter. I am aiming to secure a scholarship for post-graduate studies at a top university while actively searching for internship opportunities in any field that can enhance both my personal and academic skills. None of this would have been possible without ULYP’s incredible support—not just covering my tuition fees, stipends, and even a laptop bonus, but also giving me the opportunity to build a future I once thought was out of reach. This journey has shaped me into someone who embraces challenges, seeks knowledge, and works toward meaningful achievements".
