The Founder

The GIK Institute is as dear to me as a child to his parents.

It gives me pleasure to see that the sapling we planted in
1993 is now a flowering tree providing its cool shade to
seekers of knowledge.
Ghulam Ishaq Khan
From the Rector
Even as we gear up to welcome the new undergraduate intake, we are thinking about the
Class of 2017 looking forward to their Convocation in a month or two. The past year has
been quite satisfying, not least because of the accomplishments of the graduating batch,
and the continued efforts of the highly qualified faculty members that we are proud of. The
Institute was one of only two in the country that was selected recently for assessment by
three foreign experts for the purpose of Pakistan's accession to the Washington Accord.
Membership of the Accord would result in the recognition of Pakistani engineering degrees
by all the other member states. New academic alliances were developed with leading
foreign universities, including Turkey and South Africa. A large number of (competitive)
research grants were won by faculty from various sources. Laboratories and curricula
continued to be upgraded. An agreement was signed with Huawei, the Chinese
multinational, for the company to establish a training center on campus: HAINA (Huawei Authorized Information and
Network Academy). The Institute was, yet again, ranked as the number one private sector engineering university in Pakistan
by the Higher Education Commission (HEC), and number three overall.

A unique feature of GIK is that all students, boys and girls, and foreign and Pakistani faculty members live on its attractive,
self-contained campus, which facilitates close student-teacher interaction, as well as amongst the students themselves.
While the emphasis is on academics, including research, students have an opportunity to participate in a range of activities
outside the classroom, which is essential to an all-round education and personality development. Apart from the excellent
sports facilities, there are close to thirty students' societies: from art to aeromodelling; from mathematics to media. Students
are encouraged and facilitated to participate in national and international competitions and other events, and many have
been coming back with awards and commendations.

The GIK admissions process is very competitive, but that is one of our many strengths. The process is based entirely on merit:
there is no discrimination and no quotas. Although we are a not-for-profit institution, we try to ensure that the brightest
students do not miss the opportunity of coming here because of their limited financial resources. About one-third of the
new intake will receive scholarships or financial assistance, both from our own resources and with the help of our many
friends and partners, which include alumni, philanthropists, companies and Federal and Provincial governments, to whom
we are most grateful. In the 2016-17 session the Institute committed from its own resources more than Rs. 100 million in
assistance to undergraduate and graduate students.

I wish you the best as you seek a place for your further studies, and I thank you for considering the GIK Institute.

Chancellor
I note with satisfaction the progress
made by the Ghulam Ishaq Khan
Institute as a highly reputed centre of
excellence in engineering sciences
and technology. It is also gratifying to
learn that the Institute continues to
maintain its high standards of
teaching and research and is
producing graduates of great caliber
and potential who are contributing
significantly towards socio-
economic and industrial
development of the country.
Being a developing country, Pakistan needs a workforce which is
not only competent but is also imbued with a spirit to take the
challenges of nation building. Fortunately we have no dearth of
talent. Our youth is our asset. We need to exploit this huge
potential. By imparting quality education, we can transform our
youth and prepare them to acquire and assimilate the latest in
science and technology, to innovate, and to add to the body of
world knowledge, including the development of indigenous
technologies. A great responsibility, thus, lies on the universities,
like the GIK Institute, and other seats of higher learning. The
nation expects these institutions to produce the kind of
manpower that has the capacity and will to bring about
qualitative change in the society.
It is indeed heartening to note that GIK Institute is playing its role
and is contributing significantly towards the cause of nation
building. I therefore wish to commend the Board of Governors
and Executive Committee of the Institute, the faculty and the
entire staff of GIKI for their dedication and commitment. I trust
that they will continue discharging their responsibilities with
same vigor and enthusiasm.
I also welcome GIKI's initiative to increase number of students by
addition of modern engineering disciplines. I pray for even
greater success of this institute in its mission.

Established more than a decade ago
the GIK Institute has, by the grace of
Almighty God, risen like a shining star
on the academic horizon of Pakistan
and won national and international
recognition for its high standard of
teaching, quality of research and
competent faculty. The alumnae of
the Institute are holding high the flag
of the Institute and are serving in
responsible positions in different
countries and continents of the world.
The Institute has shaped into a center of excellence in engineering
education and research.
As I now look back at the saga of its brilliant success, my thoughts
go back to late Ghulam Ishaq Khan, the Founder of the Institute.
The Institute is a living tribute to his sagacious and inspiring
leadership in its formative phase. I am sure that the future
generations will always pay rich tribute to him for creating this seat
of learning which bears his name.
To the new entrants, I send my greetings and good wishes with the
assurance that they will find the GIKI environment congenial and
highly conducive for academic achievement and personality
development. Let us all work together to enable the Institute
achieve greater heights in its pursuit of excellence.
May Allah Almighty be our protector and Guide. Ameen!

From the Pro-Rector (Academic)

The GIK Institute comprises of six Engineering Faculties as well as a Management Sciences and
Humanities department. Each of these faculties is research led and undertakes diverse field of
study from investigation of human behaviour to range of complex engineering problems. Students
enrolled for BS, Master and PhD Degree programmes benefit from working alongside with highly
qualified faculty members and supported by state-of-the-art laboratories. The Institute has also
made significant progress since adopting Outcome Based Education (OBE) two years ago. OBE
necessitates adoption of innovative student centric teaching methodology which culminates into
attainment of 12 important graduate attributes or Programme Learning Outcomes (PLOs) towards
the end of a student degree programme. OBE is an initiative of top ranked institutes in the USA to
improve the quality of graduates based on pre-defined PLOs and their attainment. The PEC and
visiting experts from Washington Accord expressed satisfaction on implementation of OBE
concept in Faculties of Mechanical and Electronic Engineering during their recent accreditation visit to the Institute. This is
an important landmark in the history of GIK Institute. On fully assimilating OBE system GIK graduates would be regarded at
par with those graduating from many North American Universities.
As you may be aware that a university is only as good as its faculty; we therefore set a high standard in attracting faculty of
repute. These are individuals with demonstrated ability, who are deeply committed to their vocation and have outstanding
track records in teaching and research. However we do not rest on our laurels and earnestly strive to excel in teaching and
research through academic collaborations and attracting research grants. Providing solution to real world problem is
paramount hence we forge industrial partnership that is of significance to Institution, Region and the Nation. The Institute
also offers advance industry specific courses ensuring our industries benefits from the research and development activities
we undertake.
At GIK you will find an informal yet disciplined academic environment. We firmly believe the stimulating environment we
provide, helps the students in the realization of their not only intellectual potential but also shape their moral and ethical
attitude. It is therefore no wonder why our graduates are sought after by top notch multi-national companies, research
organisations or get accepted for higher education degree programmes in reputed universities across the globe.
We adhere to our core values of intellectual freedom, moral uprightness, upholding the merit in decision we make and a
firm commitment to academic excellence. I invite you to visit GIK Mission and Vision page to get further insight to what we
stand for and in which direction we are heading.
GIK Institute stands on a solid foundation ably supported by a team of committed professionals and enthusiastic students. I
invite the brightest of brains to joins us in this wonderful journey of academic pursuit where we address the challenges and
enjoy the success together. Although we have achieved many milestones, but for us best is yet to come. Welcome aboard.

From the Pro-Rector (Admin. and Finance)

It is a matter of great pleasure and privilege for me to welcome you to the
prestigious seat of learning and center of excellence. Administering the vast GIK
Institute campus, which includes the Faculties, Hostels, civic amenities, residences
and many other structures and services, poses a challenge within itself. This
challenge is met by the Administration & Finance with 5 Departments presently
headed by Directors viz Director (Finance), Director (Facilitation), Director
(Procurement), Director (Works/Maintenance) and Director (Security & Protocol)
working under my supervision. The former three Departments are based in the
H.U.Beg Admin Block, while the others in the offices located on the 1st floor of
Central Mess building. The Departments endeavor to work in close coordination
with faculties and related departments, providing proactive administrative, financial, security and
logistic support for all the activities of the Institute.
Managing the human and economic resources of the Institute within the overall ambit of financial
discipline, procurement of supplies, improving and maintaining horticultural beauty of the campus,
meeting the transport and security needs fall within their scope. In addition to the five Departments,
Medical Centre works round the clock to take care of the health and medical requirements of the
students, the faculty and the employees providing free medicines and free of charge laboratory
investigations. It is thus one place to which you, as a student, will stay connected to during your stay at
the Institute, especially as office bearers of the 29 professional and non-professional societies
functioning in the Institute. GIK College is another important organ of the Institute providing
educational facilities to the wards of the GIK faculty and the employees. I take pride in the role which
Administration and Finance play in this Institute, striving for academic excellence, meeting both the
needs of the academic faculties and students. All the best for the entrance test and looking forward to
seeing you becoming a part of the unique Campus having a life style of its own kind and carrying the
title of Gikian for the rest of your life.

Aims and Objectives

The aim of the Institute is to pursue excellence in education
and research by developing appropriate curricula and
teaching practices, acquiring talented faculty and providing
an environment conducive to teaching and learning. Its
graduates are expected to possess high professional
competence combined with the humanistic and moral values
envisaged in its Profile of the Graduates. The educational
philosophy of the Institute lays emphasis on training of the
mind rather than stuffing it with an inert body of facts; on
expanding the scientific imagination of the students rather
than making them tread well-worn and outmoded grooves of
thought. Guided by such convictions, the Institute educates
its students by confronting them with real-life problems, and
inculcating in them a problem-solving approach. They are
encouraged to explore and solve problems, to break new
grounds and to cultivate leadership qualities. Pakistan is on
the threshold of a major breakthrough in the techno-
industrial fields and needs professionals with ability and
vision to lead the way. The Institute aims at producing such
professionals with a strong base of engineering education
and research. It strives to produce graduates who can

Institute-Industry Partnership Program

The recent advancement in science and technology has led to the
crumbling of the traditional geo-cultural barrier and the whole world
has been transformed into a single global market. This is a challenging
situation for the developing countries like Pakistan who have to
ensure for survival that their industries and production systems are
globally competitive. Pakistan is yet to
respond adequately to this challenge and has to gear up to cope
with the situation. One major input in this respect can be a close
liaison between industry and the pool of expertise in our
universities and research organizations. The Institute has taken
the initial steps in this direction by establishing the partnership
program.

Under the program the Institute invites industry to participate at

various membership levels. The membership provides flexible
and tailored access to students, faculty, research, publications,
seminars, workshops and conferences. Corporate Liaison
Program is designated to serve as the firm's personal
representative ensuring that the interactions between the

Electrical Engineering-An Ever-Expanding Field
Electrical Engineering is one of the oldest disciplines of
engineering. Initially, it was confined to a few areas such as
power generation, transmission and distribution; radio
communication and wireless telephony. However, in about fifty
years, it has seen tremendous growth and expansion in some
new areas. The diversification and expansion in some areas of
Electrical Engineering has been of such a large magnitude that
they seem to be independent disciplines in their own. These
include Electronic Engineering, Power Engineering,
Telecommunication Engineering, Computer Engineering,
Information Technology, and Control Systems. However, in a
large part of the world, Electrical Engineering is still considered
to be the mother discipline.
Electrical Power Engineering is an important and vital discipline
in Pakistan due to present crisis in power generation. The main
aim of this discipline is not only to study existing methods of
power generation, transmission and distribution but also to
study the new ways of power generation i.e., renewable and
sustainable technologies. The Electrical Power Engineering
Program covers a broad range of activities and evolving issues
that are of great importance in the field of sustainable and
smart power systems.
With the turn of the century, we have entered into a new era of
micro and nano-fabrication technologies. With the new chip
design methods at these scales, System-On-Chip has enabled
to bring millions of devices in small sized chips, thus enhancing
capabilities exponentially offered by the electronic devices.
Other micro-fabrication technologies related to the fields such
as MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), are now
reaching a point of being able to contribute in the same way.
The immense development in the field of microelectronics has
generated an ever-increasing demand for electronic and
electrical engineers to cope not only with the development in
traditional fields like communications, robotics, digital signal
processing, power and control systems but also have a good
knowledge base and theoretical understanding of the
emerging areas like biomedical instrumentation (where
biological samples can be tested and analysed on a single chip
(lab-on-a-chip)), security and surveillance and biometrics.

Introduction
The vigorous growth of the electro-optic industries, lasers,
semiconductor and microelectronics, instrumentation and
simulation of systems has created a demand for engineers who can
completely cope with the present and future demands of the
modern industry. The graduates of engineering sciences will be
suitable for industry that is involved not only in production but also
in research and development both within the country and abroad.
Already, within the country a number of organizations are pursuing
R & D work and production in engineering field of technologies. At
present the main power for such organizations in these fields is
either trained or the assistance of foreign consultants is sought. The
graduates of this faculty will be well equipped to fill this gap in
national expertise, and can look forward to highly rewarding careers
as also discussed below.
Faculty Mission: To produce capable engineers working as
responsible global citizens, future leaders of society and leading
practitioners of Engineering Sciences.
Undergraduate Programs: Faculty of Engineering Sciences offers
specialization in one of three contemporary fields of engineering.
These include Photonics, Semiconductor and Microelectronics and
Modeling and Simulation. The Institute is the trend setter in
establishing these programs within the country which is duly
accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council. Students are
required to opt for the specialization during third year (5th
Semester) of their studies. In order to complete the degree
requirement students must complete 17 credit hours in one of the
specialization fields mentioned below. Students are assigned
projects and suitable advanced elective courses to develop
expertise in the specialized areas. Maximum efforts are made to
induct equal number of students into the various streams.
Photonics: Photonics is located at the crossroads of natural
sciences and engineering. Photonics encompasses the use of lasers
from probing atomic media to laser treatment of living tissues and
from laser cutting to design of laser guided missiles and much more.
The Faculty of Engineering Sciences under the stream of Photonics
provides state of the art working facilities ranging from simple diode
lasers to high power cutting lasers, optical communication systems
to high precision spectrometers. The course content has been
designed to enable the students to gain an insight into the basic
working and design principles of lasers and optical
communications.
Photonics based technologies are the central to the modern life. For
79
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2017
example, they are needed to make and inspect the integrated
circuits in nearly every electronics device we use. They are used in
high-efficiency lighting, displays and the harvesting of solar power.
Optical fibers have enabled the internet and laser is essential to
precision manufacturing, metrology, a plethora of medical
applications including clinical diagnosis, surgery and genome
mapping.
Career in Photonics: The opportunities for those engineers who
will graduate with expertise in photonics during this coming decade
are outstanding. B.S. degree in Photonics will enable students to
analyze and design photonic systems for a broad set of applications
including:
Ÿ Energy Laser manufacturing
Ÿ Healthcare Telecommunication
Ÿ Instrumentation Defense
Ÿ Security Software development
Ÿ Entertainment etc.
According to a report by United Nations Industrial Development
Organization (UNIDO) and the International Centre for Science and
High Technology (ICS), the photonics engineers have great scope in
establishing small and medium enterprises (SMEs). They will also be
able to continue their education toward an MS or a PhD degree in
numerous areas of modern optics, laser manufacturing,
optoelectronics, photonics networks, software development,
instrumentation & control, nanotechnology, bio photonics etc.
Modeling and Simulation: Modeling and Simulation is a dynamic
field that is utilized in engineering, science, health science, business,
education and many other disciplines. This emerging field is based
on developments in diverse engineering areas and brings elements
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2017 FACULTY OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES

of art, engineering and science together in a complex and unique
way that requires domain experts to enable appropriate decisions
when it comes to application or development of modeling and
simulation technology. Generally, modeling and simulation
engineering is a discipline of designing mathematical model of
actual or theoretical physical systems executing the model on a
computer and analyzing the execution output. Due to its dynamic
nature, the modeling and simulation field has tremendous potential
for creating student interest in science, technology, engineering and
mathematics disciplines. Computer simulations are extensively
being used in aerospace industry, automobile systems, financial
markets, environment systems and medical sciences. Students
graduated in this discipline get attractive job opportunities in
almost all industries including national and multi-national sectors.
Modeling and Simulation is playing a vital role to solve problems
from almost all domains. Most of the time an investment in
Modeling and Simulation saves more than it costs. Modeling and
Simulation is very important because the description of the system
behavior by experimentation might not be feasible due to the
following reasons.
Ÿ Some experiments may be very harmful.
Ÿ Some experiments might take longer time than expected and
may also be very costly.
Ÿ There might be obstructions during experimentation.
Ÿ We might not have access to inputs and outputs.
Career in Modeling and Simulation:
Ÿ Oil and gas industry (e.g. reservoir characterization)
Ÿ Space/defense industry (e.g. in national security mission,
simulation of universe, space vehicles and missile trajectories)
Ÿ Software systems (e.g. simulation software used by Google,
IBM)
Ÿ Chemical interactions (e.g. paper and pulp industry).
the art solutions to the photovoltaic technology for the economical
production and storage of electricity. Organic semiconductor is
another newly developed stream of semiconductor for the
production of OLEDs, flexible displays and a variety of
multifunctional sensors. Semiconductor students can explore new
horizons for the betterment of humanity and can upraise the
standard of living by providing economical and efficient solutions to
the problems.
Career in Semiconductor and Microelectronics: BS degree in
Engineering Sciences with major in Semiconductor and
Microelectronics will enable students to pursue their carriers in all
kind of electronic equipment manufacturing industry. They can
excel in R&D defense organizations (Space, Missiles and
Communication etc.). Semiconductor and Microelectronics
Engineering students can also pursue their carriers in the renewable
energy technologies (Solar, Wind, Tidal etc.) and power electronics.
This stream also provides the students with the option of pursuing
interdisciplinary careers in the field of nanotechnology, micro-
electromechanical systems (MEMS), organic semiconductors and
renewable energy resources.

Materials Engineering Program
Materials Engineering is a challenging, rewarding, and highly
respected profession and is regarded as one of the broadest
engineering disciplines dealing with production, processing,
characterization, selection and design of new and exotic materials
for micro to nanoscale applications. It encompasses metals and
alloys, ceramics, semiconductors, polymers, glasses, composites,
biomaterials and nanomaterials. Typical job functions include
selection and designing of new materials, developing improved
manufacturing routes, failure analysis and characterization of
structures and determination of properties.
Materials graduates are engaged in a wide range of industries, not
only the materials production but also manufacturing industries,
where materials are becoming an increasingly important factor in
terms of the competitive edge of many advanced applications such
as in transportation, health care, energy production, biomedical
engineering, and aerospace industry. Mechanical, thermal,
electrical, magnetic, optical and chemical properties of materials are
continuously being improved by materials engineers globaly which
in turn leads to improvements in our life style.
Undergraduate Program
The department offers a four-year BS in Materials Engineering
degree program with specialization in Nanotechnology, or
Manufacturing based on theory and laboratory work. The
curriculum is specifically designed to commensurate with both the
need of local industry and R & D organization as well as keeping in
view the emerging research trends abroad. The first two years in the
program are devoted to establishing a sound foundation in
mathematics, science and basic engineering. The final two years
establish the structure-processing-properties relationships for all
the major classes of materials, i.e., metals, ceramics, and polymers.
Several specialization tracks and combination of electives allow a
student to develop a concentration in a particular area of materials. A
sequence of two design courses in the senior year serves as a
Capstone design experience for the program.
The BS program in Materials Engineering has a very favorable
student/faculty ratio and students have significant personal
interaction with the faculty. Talented faculty with international

of physical, intellectual and recreational activities. There are
many student societies in GIK Institute which support
contemporary scientific and engineering perspectives as well,
and are devoted to advance theory and practice of their
respective fields. Few of student societies which have
contributed to GIK Institute, are discussed below:
1 Science Society
It provides opportunities to students to nurture their scientific
talents. It arranges video shows on contemporary
developments in various scientific fields. It encourages and
financially backs scientific projects undertaken by students on
their own initiative. It provides a forum where students and
teachers can get together to exchange ideas and information
on scientific topics beyond the confines of the formal curricula.
1. AIAA - (American Institute of Aeronautics and
Astronautics) GIK Chapter
The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA)
is a prominent technical society at GIK Institute. Formerly

to the masses. The society is a platform for Aerospace
enthusiasts and it conducts various events, seminars and
workshops each year. AIAA also maintains a fleet of Radio
Controlled Aircraft which are used for both technical and
recreational purposes.
2. ASM/TMS – (The Mineral, Metal & Material
Society/American Society of Materials) GIK Chapter
The mission of ASM/TMS is to promote the science and
engineering professions concerned with minerals, metals and
materials. The objective of this TMs chapter is to make students
aware of the role of materials and metallurgical engineering in

Student Affairs Office
established, which is wholly managed by female students. It
has successfully arranged two national symposiums to discuss
the problems faced by women in this field and also the
problems faced by the industry in hiring and retaining of
women engineers. The feedback has been enormously
encouraging and WES plans to keep working at raising

“Basant Festival” every spring.
8. SOPHEP- (Society for the Promotion of Higher
Education in Pakistan)
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2017
In this modern day and age, engineers and scientists are not
isolated from the management of the firms they work in. As a
matter of fact, they themselves can become senior managers
later on. Due to this, companies are perpetually on the look-
out for people with solid communication skills. The implication
for students is that besides studying hard, they must strive to
develop solid presentation and communication skills as well.
One of the major problems facing today's Pakistani students is
the lack of interaction between the Pakistan's academic and
professional communities. As a result of this, young
undergraduates lack sufficient knowledge of the professional
world and companies remain unaware of the great potential of
these future workers.
In this regard, SOPHEP bridges the gap among these two vital
communities. SOPHEP holds workshops that are conducted by
successful GIKI alumni that help students to refine their
people-skills and professional grooming.
9. Project Topi
Project Topi is a student based society which works for the
social uplift of the people living in and around the GIK Institute.

of the people of Topi and other parts of Swabi. Over the Years
the domain stretched to areas like medical initiatives, blood
camps, and woman/men empowerment, micro-financing and
continual support of some very poor families as well.

imagine my delight when I was admitted in Fall of 2000. GIKI was a place where there was so much opportunity to grow.
The quiet and serene environment made me focus on my passion of creating software programs to solve problems. Over
time I worked with lots of brilliant soon-to-be engineers on problems ranging from automation to artificial intelligence.
That clear-headedness and focus helps me to this day where we work in the cutting edge of the software industry under
immense pressure. Things move at a rapid pace and you need to have focus and the know-how to keep up with the
changes. GIKI has taught me to work under pressure and be creative at the same time. The lessons you learn here always
stay with you no matter how many years pass.

Vice President – Engineering, Convo

I owe a lot to GIKI. After graduating from GIKI, I got interviewed by Schlumberger and started my career with them and
after 14 years, I am still with them. I met Uzma, my wife, in GIKI as well. She also works for Schlumberger. Together we
have lived and worked in Indonesia, Scotland, Norway, Dubai and now in Houston. I spent the first five years of my career
in the field, mostly at the drilling rig locations from the hot and humid swamp jungles of Indonesia to the ice cold
offshore platforms of the North Sea, running high tech logging and drilling tools in oil-wells. Then I moved to
management and have had various roles since. My current role is that of Recruiting and Training manager for
Schlumberger, Drilling & Measurements, based in Houston, Texas. During my stay at GIKI, I think I developed an
approach to problem solving and self-confidence in communicating, which have helped me a lot in my career. On the
academic side my fondest memories include getting on the Dean's list in my 7th Semester. Otherwise I have great
memories of all the times spent in sporting events or just hanging out with friends, some of whom are still my best
friends today.

Recruiting, Training & Development Manager - Drilling and Measurements, Schlumberger USA
Every day that I spent at GIKI with my friends contributed to my fondest memories; the late nighters, the after-classes
hang outs, and the “dhood patti” sessions at the tea stall up the hillock. I experienced brilliant and extremely competitive
cohort of students and the faculty. We, being the first batch, were extremely lucky. There was no real competition – GIKI
was the only private university offering engineering degree those days, the faculty was extremely devoted, all involved in
the Project GIKI were running high on adrenaline and their founder spirit was running in their blood. The first batch
benefited a lot from all these positives. I enjoyed being challenged in the class every single day. Everything that we did
was “the first”. The first inter-faculty cricket tournament, the first basant, the first club, the first basketball competition,
the first concert, the first dramatics, the first debates competition. It was that spirit of being “the first” and the knowledge
of the responsibility that comes with it, that I enjoyed the most. We came from the time when students in UETs were
taking 6-8 years to complete their engineering degree. So when GIKI was instituted that was the only option we had.
Although we joined GIKI mainly through lack of any other option but in retrospect even if we had other options most of
us would still have joined GIKI. I did well in academic; graduated third in my batch from GIKI and during my MS from
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; I was awarded Siebel Fellowship for academic excellence. I have worked in
several prestigious companies (Schlumberger, Techlogix and Oracle) both in Pakistan and abroad. I have worked! in
several countries: Pakistan, Indonesia, Qatar, UAE, USA, China, UK, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, South Korea, New
Zealand, Hong Kong. The Computer Systems Engineering degree was a well rounded degree. It had a broader focus –
covering computer science, mechanical, electronics etc. the degree made me a true engineer – i.e. someone who solves
problems. In my career I have worked in different capacities ranging from Oil exploration to software development to
sales and project delivery. Had it not been the diversified nature of the degree I may not have done as well as I did in
whatever job I undertook. The degree gave me the confidence and ability to “solve problems” and that is the whole gist
of what my career has been built upon. Thank you GIKI for the friends, the memories, the skills, the education, the
teachers and the confidence that you have given me. All of these shine over me and help me excel in my profession and
my personal life.
