distinguish themselves by their professional competence,
humanistic outlook and ethical rectitude, pragmatic
approach to problem solving, and organizational and
managerial skills. Given these attributes, they should be
able to respond adequately to the needs of Pakistan and
the developing countries and to be the vanguard of their
techno-industrial transformation.
UNDERGRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2014
From the Rector

The Ghulam Ishaq Khan (GIK) Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology completed twenty
years of its existence last Fall. The Institute celebrated the occasion in an impressive manner, the
highlight of which was the Alumni Homecoming. Former students turned up in large numbers,
including many from abroad. It was very gratifying for us to see how well most of the GIK alumni are
doing. Their display of enthusiasm, and appreciation of the Institute, was quite satisfying. We were,
thus, encouraged to look back at these two decades with some sense of achievement.
Notwithstanding its past successes, the Institute continues to maintain its high academic standards,
and its position as one of the leading institutions of higher learning in Pakistan. All this has been
possible because of the hard work and dedication of our world class faculty, and the support of our
many friends, particularly the alumni. As a result, we attract the best young minds to our student body.
To respond to the increasing demand for places, the Institute is implementing its expansion program, both in terms of the
number of students and the introduction of new disciplines. High quality research remains a priority. In addition to the new
postgraduate programs introduced a couple of years ago, new undergraduate programs, in Chemical Engineering,
Nanotechnology and Management Sciences, have also begun. The curricula of the existing programs are being revised and
updated continuously, to reflect both national and global trends, while keeping an eye on the needs of the market.
The GIK Institute is probably the only university in Pakistan which requires all its students and faculty members to live on its
attractive, self-contained campus, which facilitates close interaction between the two, 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 some two dozen students' societies: from art to aeromodelling; from mathematics to
media. In brief, life here can be quite exciting.
The GIK admissions process is based entirely on merit. 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 onefourth of the new intake will receive scholarships or financial assistance, both from our own resources and with the help of
our many partners, which include alumni, philanthropists, companies and Federal and Provincial governments, and to whom
we are grateful.
I look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you to partake of the GIK experience.

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.
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!
Engr. Shamsul Mulk, HI

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.

Genesis
The Genesis of the Institute goes back to the early 50's when Mr.
Ghulam Ishaq Khan, during his close association with the Water
and Power Development Authority and the Pakistan Industrial
Development Corporation, became acutely aware of Pakistan's
dependence on foreign expertise and imported technology. His
frequent interaction with foreign and local experts led to the
idea of a center of excellence in engineering sciences and
production technology whose standards of education would be
comparable to those of its counterparts in the advanced
countries. The transformation of this idea into a practical
proposition took place in December 1985 when the Benevolent
Community Care and Infaq Foundation donated Rs. 50 million
for setting up an institute, and the Khyber Pakhtun Khwa
Government donated 218 acres of land for its campus.
A milestone in the evolution of the Institute was the registration,
in June 1988, of its parent body, namely the Society for the
Promotion of Engineering Sciences and Technology in Pakistan
(SOPREST). Mr. Ghulam Ishaq Khan, the then President of the
Islamic Republic of Pakistan, was elected President of the
Society for life, Mr. H. U. Beg appointed its honorary Executive
Director and Mr. Samiullah Marwat the first full time Secretary.
The task of conceiving and formulating the basic form and
features of the Institute was entrusted to a group of eminent
scientists and engineers. Civil works at the campus site were
started in early 1990. An interim office of the Institute was set up

in August 1992 where experienced professionals worked on the
educational aims and philosophy of the Institute, its curricula and
details of equipment for its laboratories and workshops. The
ordinance for the establishment of the Institute was
promulgated by the Frontier Government in March 1993 and the
first batch of students entered its portals in October 1993. It is the
first not-for-profit, non-governmental institute of its kind in the
country and is dedicated to bring our engineering education at
par with that of advanced countries.
CAMPUS 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 technoindustrial 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
upgrade existing technological activities in the country and in
whom professional excellence is inseparable from a
commitment to the national ideals.
Board of Governors
The Board of Governors sits at the apex of the statutory pyramid of the Institute and its composition is the same as that of the
General Council of the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Sciences and Technology. It has overall control of the Institute,
the powers to create new components of the Institute such as a school, faculty or any other teaching or research unit, and to
change constitution of its Executive Committee and Governing Council.

Environment
Spreading over an area of more than 400 acres, the Ghulam
Ishaq Khan Institute is located in the midst of the unspoilt and
nature-rich countryside of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa of
Pakistan. Lying at the foot of the beautiful lake of Tarbela
Dam, one of the largest earth-filled dams of the world, it is set
against the picturesque backdrop of rolling hills, vast grassy
fields and a clear blue sky with the mighty Indus meandering
across a lush green belt.
Bordering on its campus is the traditional village of Topi, the
birth place of Sahibzada Abdul Qayyum Khan, who was the
pioneer of modern education in the Frontier Province. Close
by is the ancient village of Hund where Alexander the Great
crossed the Indus. The surrounding area, once known as the
land of Ghandara, is dotted profusely with archaeological

sites of great cultural significance. These include the wellknown sites of the ancient seats of learning, the Taxila
University of the Ghandara period and the Buddhist
monastery at Takht Bhai. To these seats of learning flocked
students and scholars from all over South Asia, Central Asia
and China. It is in this region that we find the sayings of
Ashoka carved on rocks at Shabaz Garhi; the Naighe Gatte
megaliths (stone columns) on the Swabi-Mardan road; and
numerous stupas and chambers which fire the imagination
of the visitors to the area with the mysteries and glories of its
past. The excavated sites around Taxila, at Takht Bhai, Dir
and in Swat Valley transport them back to the civilization that
flourished here almost 2500 years back. Exquisite relics of
that era are the treasured possessions of the museums at
Lahore, Peshawar, Karachi, Dir, Swat and Taxila.
In addition to its great historical character, the location of the
Institute offers many advantages. The northern areas of
Pakistan which attract expeditions from all over the world
are easily accessible from here. Perhaps the most important
advantage is the invaluable opportunities it offers for
establishing interaction between industry and university.
Some of the most important national industries are located
quite close to the Institute. These include the Telephone
Industries of Pakistan, the Heavy Mechanical Complex, the
Heavy Foundry and Forge Engineering, the Kamra
Aeronautical Complex, the Heavy Rebuild Factory and the
Locomotive Complex. Their proximity offers invaluable
opportunities for practical training of the students.
Location of the Institute

Though away from the congestion, noise and pollution of
big cities, the Institute has easy access to Islamabad and
Peshawar. Both cities are connected with the rest of the
country through frequent air, train and bus services.
Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, has an international
airport which provides ready access to the outside world.
The Institute is located just by the river Indus, adjacent to
Tarbela Dam, and near the border with Punjab. Driving
time from Islamabad is one and a half hours. This will
reduce to about one hour when the Ghazi Interchange on
Islamabad-Peshawar Motorway is completed in a few
months.

International Advisory Board

The founding fathers of the Institute were conscious of the
fact that in spite of all the idealism one may have, new
institutions tend to regress towards the existing models, and
fail thereby to live up to the ideals which inspired their
creation. They therefore took care to build monitoring
devices to maintain the Institute's standards of education
and research. One such device is the International Advisory
Board consisting of leading scientists, engineers, and
academicians of international standing. The Board sets up
international standards for the Institute in terms of the
quality of education and research, the caliber of faculty,
revision and review of the curricula, and the adequacy of the
laboratory and library facilities. It also reviews the
development programs of the Institute and provides
guidelines for its growth in the future.

average (GPA) which is the ratio of the total number of grade
points earned to the total number of credits attempted. The
maximum possible GPA is 4.00.
The minimum semester GPA to remain in satisfactory

academic standing is 2.00. Students are placed on academic
probation at the end of any semester in which their semester
GPA falls below 2.00. A student on probation is allowed to
register only 10-13 credit hours.
A student whose semester GPA remains below 2.00 is given a
warning for his/her poor performance. If his/her SGPA
remains below 2.00 for two consecutive semester (excluding
summer school) his/her name is removed from the roll of the
Institute. Freshmen, upon request, may start afresh with no
credit transfer if two consecutive probations are experienced
in first two semesters.
Registration Schedule
Students have to register for their courses during the period
specified for the purpose before the commencement of a
semester. The office of the Examinations, before the start of
every semester, will notify the registration deadline. Requests for
late registration for valid reasons can be entertained by the ProRector (Academic) till the end of the third week of a semester.
However, such students are required to pay Rs.850 per day late
registration fee.
Registration in the Summer

An eight week summer session is organized each year for those
students who fail to qualify in a course or they have obtained a D
or a D+ grade. The courses offered in the summer are decided by
the respective Dean's office keeping in view the number of
students interested in taking a particular course. Students have
to pay separately for registering in a summer course. Students
cannot register in a higher level course during summer and the
maximum limit for registration is 8 Credit Hours.
Double Degree Program

Graduates of the Institute desirous of obtaining a degree in a
discipline other than the previously earned degree can apply
afresh for a separate Double Degree Program. They would be

required to spend additional two to four semesters in the
Institute to complete the requirements of a double degree. The
students have to do a separate project for a Double Degree. The
acceptance in the Degree program and details of the
requirements are worked out by the respective Dean's office and
communicated to the office of the Controller of Examinations.
Attendance Rule
Although the students are expected to attend all the Lectures
and Laboratories work pertaining to their courses of study but
are required to attend at least 80% of the total Lectures/Lab work
for each course to qualify for appearance in the final
examination.
Change in Courses
Once registered for a semester, students may add or drop
courses only with the approval of their Deans and in conformity
with the prescribed procedures and time-limits. Courses
dropped during this period are not shown on the semester result
report or transcript.
Withdrawal from Courses

Students may withdraw from one or more courses with the
approval of their Dean between the 4th and 10th week of a
semester. In such cases, a W grade appears on their transcripts.
Any withdrawal after the 10th week entails award of an F grade in
the course.
Incomplete (I) Grade

An I grade is given to students in a course if:
The outstanding requirement, in such cases, is to be met during
the first two weeks of the next semester, and the students
themselves are responsible to make arrangements for the
purpose with their instructors. Failing this, the I grade is
converted to F grade. They cannot re-register for a course in
which they have the I grade. The grade point average of a
student for a semester is calculated excluding the I grade, and it
is re-calculated when a regular grade has been awarded in the
course.
25
ACADEMICS

Courses in which students secure F grade, and which are a
requirement for the degree have to be repeated in entirety. They
may opt for a substitute course only if there is an alternative in the
curriculum. Students can repeat courses for which they obtained F,
D+ or D grade, on the condition that they repeat the courses within
3 semesters after the semesters in which they obtained these
grades. In case of repeated courses, all grades achieved by
students appear in their transcripts. However, only the latest grade
will be counted for the Cumulative Grade Point Average, even if it is
lower than the earlier one.
Interruption of Studies
If a student interrupts his study programs for a period longer than
one semester then, upon his return, all the credits previously
earned by him at the Institute are evaluated by the Dean to
determine their relevance to the changes made in the curriculum, if
any. He may be required to modify his degree plan to ensure
conformity to the latest version of the curriculum.
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 member firm and
Institute are as productive as possible. Recruiting assistance is
provided to member firms in addition to computerized database
of undergraduate and graduate students seeking permanent,
summer, or co-operative job opportunities. Graduate fellowships
are also available for support. The liaison provides campus-wide
visibility and access to resources of the GIK Institute.
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.
Continuing Education Program

The last few decades have witnessed a vertiginous pace of
advancement in almost all fields of science and technology. The
galloping technological advancements have created a host of
socio-cultural dislocations and prominent amongst them is the
rapid obsolescence of the know-how of technologists and
engineers. What they had learnt at schools or universities becomes
antiquated within years of the commencement of their practical
careers. It poses new challenges for technical universities and
creates new role for them.
The Institute has responded to this need and established a
Continuing Education Programme for the purpose. Under this
programme a faculty committee is assigned the task of surveying
national industries for identification of their need for updating of
technical personnel, and to apprise them of the expertise available
at the Institute. The programme was inaugurated in summer 1995
with intensive short courses for engineers and managers from
industries. The Institute is now offering intensive courses on a
number of subjects to managers, supervisors and engineers from
public and private sector industries and organizations.

worries about coming, but along with all of the
usual "am I really good enough?" that just about
everyone was panicking over, I was really nervous
about starting out at university with a wheelchair
in tow. I had so many questions, mostly about "silly
little things" that I didn't want to ask in case they
seemed trivial. But as soon as I got here, I
realized I was worrying over nothing! From the
moment I arrived, there were people everywhere
who were more than willing to help make my
transition into university life as smooth as possible
I have been completely overwhelmed by the
level of support here by the faculty, staff and
students.

GIKI over the 4 years has been an exciting

journey. Apart from the studies, the social
life which GIKI provides is unparalleled. It
teaches you the life outside four walls of
home. With so many friends, the societies,
the events and the challenging academic life;
I'll surely miss the time spent here.

Electrical Engineering is one of the oldest disciplines of
engineering. Initially it was confined to few areas such as power
generation, transmission and distribution; radio communication
and wireless telephony. However, in fifty years, it has seen
tremendous growth and expansion in some areas of Electrical
Engineering. 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, Computer Engineering, Information
Technology, and Control Systems. However, in a large part of
the world, Electrical Engineering is still considered to be the
parent 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. 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 a new era in which
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
exponential capabilities 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 should also have a
good knowledge base and theoretical understanding of the
emerging areas like biomedical instrumentation (where
biological samples can be tested and analyzed on a single chip
(lab-on-a-chip)), security & surveillance and biometrics.
Keeping in mind the latest requirements of the national and
international job market and research trends, Faculty of
Electrical Engineering has designed an updated curriculum and
offers high-quality courses aimed at individuals who can

amicably meet these challenges. The program of study enables
them to lead the teams of future young engineers and to realize
their innovative ideas. The faculty also provides student with
the opportunity to learn how research carried out by the faculty
members is transformed into education.
Undergraduate Program
The Faculty offers a four-year degree program through courses
that are modular in nature and are evenly spread across eight
regular semesters. The theoretical education obtained in the
classroom is reinforced with laboratory work. These

Festivals and quizzes, movies and

assignments, games and then some more
quizzes and assignments.Life in
GIKI has been absolutely
amazing.The three years I have spent here
have molded me into someone who is
versatile, confident and always ready for a
challenge. GIKI has not only been an
excellent source of quality education, but
it has also contributed alot to my
interpersonal growth. FEE in particular
is blessed with highly qualified and very
cooperative teachers who are always
willing to help the students in need of their
guidance. Being a part of this faculty has
vastly helped me to improve my technical
and managerial skills. The bulk load of
assignments, quizzes and projects are of
course tough to cope with, but the rewards
reaped later are definitely worth the
struggle.GIKI is truly a place where
excellence is engineered.

mathematics combined with engineering. The Engineering
investment in Institute- Industry partnership programs.
Science program is ideal preparation for graduate school in a

wide range of disciplines, for rewarding careers in industry,
and is an excellent background for those who wish to pursue
careers in other professions, such as management and
education.
The vigorous growth of the electro-optic industries, lasers,
semiconductor technology, 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.
Program Objectives: The Engineering Science Program
seeks to produce engineers who build successful, diverse
Undergraduate Programs: Faculty of Engineering Sciences

offers program in three contemporary fields of engineering.
These include lasers and optoelectronics, semiconductor
and superconducting technologies 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 13 credit hours in one of the
specialization fields mentioned below.
Laser and Optoelectronics: Located at the crossroads of
natural sciences and engineering, Lasers and
Optoelectronics 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 Nobel Prize 1964 in Physics to Basov, Prokhorov
and Townes highlighted the importance of Lasers and the
subsequent rapid progress in the field of Lasers highlighted
the everlasting impact which Lasers continue to have on our
society. The Faculty of Engineering Sciences under the
stream of Lasers and Optoelectronics provides state of art
73

designed to enable the students to gain an insight into the basic
working and design principles of lasers and Optical
communications.
Laser and optoelectronics based technologies are the central to
the modern life. For 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 and
metrology, and a plethora of medical applications including
clinical diagnosis, surgery, and genome mapping.

in this discipline get attractive jobs 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.
Some experiments may be very harmful
Some experiments might take longer time than expected

and also may be very costly
There might be obstructions during experimentation
We might not have access to inputs and outputs.
Career in Laser and Optoelectronics: Laser, optoelectronics

and photonics is playing a huge role in the world economy and
many jobs are available in industrial, defense, research,
telecommunication and medical organizations. BS. Degree in
Engineering Sciences with major in Laser and optoelectronics will
enable students to analyze and design optical and laser systems
for a broad set of applications including manufacturing,
healthcare, telecommunication, defense, security, and
entertainment. The curriculum of lasers and optoelectronics also
provides the students a firm support to pursue their higher
studies in the field of lasers and Optics.
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 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 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
Semiconductor and Superconducting Technologies:

Semiconductor and superconducting technologies are the

In retrospect, coming to GIKI was the best

decision I ever made. Engineering
sciences amalgamates hardcore
electronics, fundamental computing,
principles of mechanical engineering and
a specialization of your choice into a
perfect knowledge blend. It has not only
made me versatile but has revealed to me,
a spectrum of opportunities. This place
has made me stronger in ways I can't put
into words, I met amazing people and
made friends I want to hold on for life.
With such a competitive environment,
world class technological facilities and an
opportunity to work with the most
brilliant minds of the country, GIKI has
transformed me into an extremely diligent
person, preparing me for the hard times.
This entire experience of being part of the
most prestigious and proficient lot, as
history traces back, has been my
inundating honor and I wouldn't have had
it any other way.

CHEMICAL ENGINEERING PROGRAM

Rapid commercialization of conventional and modern, man-made
products gave birth to process industry. The dynamics of the
industry require group of highly trained professionals from almost
all engineering disciplines. However, a chemical engineer organizes
his/her coordination at the process plant and thus deemed as
process brain. Such responsibility demands basic knowledge of all
conventional trades of engineering in addition to an in-depth
knowledge of large-scale industrial dynamics. Chemical engineering
is all about changing raw materials into useful products in safe, cost
effective and eco-frinedly ways. Sustainable development of process
industry and thereby contributing to the continual improvement of
daily life is an exclusive responsibility of this trade.
The faculty of chemical engineering at Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute
offers a 4-years degree program covering a thorough grounding in
basic science & engineering. In addition to that, it provides
specialized training in chemical engineering and application of the
very field. Curriculum is designed so as to impart the indispensable
knowledge for a chemical engineer at an undergraduate level,
particularly the knowledge required to cope with the problems of
local industry.
The newly established laboratories are the prime feature, providing
state-of-the-art equipment. Most of the laboratories are designed
having conventional aspects imitated by the more sophisticated and
risk free digital equipment. Experiments are designed to trigger the
thinking of students and not just mere data logging.
Careers in Chemical Engineering

Quality of modern living standards has encouraged the mass
production of various utilities, necessities and amenities. Since
the birth of process & processing industry, after 18th century,
there is a dramatic increase in its volume. Population trends and
a chain of never ending new/modern products ensures the
growth in this sector. Furthermore struggling third world
countries like Pakistan are now focusing to process their raw
materials in their own facilities. When it comes to realization,
chemical engineers become an essential part of the team to
chart the layout and erection of the new production line. Existing
plants also require chemical engineers not only supervising &
ensuring their smooth operation but also for troubleshooting,
106
demanding interaction between the engineers and scientists

from various other fields. Resources at the faculty are designed
to inculcate the necessary knowledge, practices and behavioural
aspects in the graduates, and prerequisites for the
responsibilities of professional life. Chemical engineers find their
utility in various industries including chemical & petrochemical,
nuclear, energy, oil & gas, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and
in various defense sectors, in addition to emerging research
fields. Furthermore, these engineers are equipped to collaborate
with different resources at the plant including management,
utility engineers and above all with the technicians and plant
operators as they will be their observing eyes in the field.
Program Outcomes
Graduates should be sound in fundamentals of engineering in
addition to the advanced knowledge of this Particular field. They
are expected to act logically and ethically both in normal
operating conditions and under stress induced by any plant
emergency. They should behave like a captain of the ship having
keen observation on the plant activities and be able to
communicate with other professionals at the facility.

GIK Institute Alumni (www.gikialumni.org)

II had wonderful experience studying at GIKI. There are many opportunities for Gikians to study, work,
undertake final year projects or travel abroad. These opportunities include national/overseas internships,
depending on the course and level of study. In my opinion Engineering Sciences is the best program and
after graduating in (ES) one can not only continue higher studies in many disciplines but also can join
multinational companies as carrier. I preferred to remain in academia and finished my PhD in Physics. As
many courses from different domains are taught during ES degree, these courses are really useful during
research and to collaborate with researcher from Engineering, Mathematics, and Physics etc.

Class of 2003
GIKI had been a great place for me which provided me an insight into the world of materials science and
engineering. It was through my 4 year stay at GIKI that I have been able to secure Erasmus Mundus and Fulbright
Scholarship. It had been the most exciting experience of my life and it helped me in shaping my personality into a
hardworking, self reliable and confidant person.

Masters of Research in Functionalized Advanced Materials Engineering through Erasmus Mundus
program.
Gold Medal conferred by the president of Pakistan for outstanding performance in academics in BS
degree program in GIKI
I believe every Pakistani born and brought up away yearns to visit Pakistan and there is no better place on earth
than GIKI to fulfil his/her aspiration. Never thought that I will travel all the way from Kuwait to Topi for the
paramount time of my life. Life at GIKI started with never ending labs of first year and then it was a blink of an eye
that all these 4 years passed away leaving us with nothing but sweet memories. I own all that my academics
taught me, but there was an equal influence by the societies and culture of GIK Institute that showed me my
strengths and abilities.
The self-sufficiency I achieved at GIKI led me to Zain Kuwait as a BSS Engineer almost 3 months before graduation
and I spent almost a year until I meet Zarrar Khan (CTO, VIVA Kuwait), a fellow GIKIAN and now here I am working
with him at Huawei Radio Network Planning and Optimization as a Radio Network Wireless Engineer.
Words will never suffice the time I spent at GIKI. Never can I forget GIKI; the buildings, the atmosphere, the people
and their hospitality.
