Just dare to introduce LUMS. Which is a really good University in Pakistan.

If know from this forum that few people in Bangladesh had gone to India for getting higher education. I want to say them to try LUMS.

Currently if offer BS, MS and PHD in Computer Science as well as MBA.

It is walking distance from my home in Lahore Defence too .

I met some brothers who graduated from our university who are teaching at LUMS now. I have also heard how good it is.

As for university, the ones who go to India want to go there or couldn't make it to the ones in the country.

For MBA no one in the subcontinent can top IBA of DU. They are good and they have been able to maintain the standard. And the Business departments of the private universities are also good and in most cases recognized.

As for CS, don't know how good LUMS is in it because my known people are in business but BUET computer engineering is pretty good. And DU, NSU pure CS departments are also not bad.

I am ofcourse only interested in CS and not in MBA.
Also I only know CS graduates as I worked with them in Pakistan Techlogix (http://www.techlogix.com)


The computer science dean of LUMS is a PHD from Stanford (Stanford is #1 in CS in world) his name is Dr. Arif Zaman

and also other teacher are really good like
Dr Asad Zaman (another PHD from Stanford),Dr M. Ashraf Iqbal, Dr Haroon Atique Babri , Dr. Mohammad Jahangir Ikram and other good CS teacher.... Visiting faculity is also really good like Dr. Sohail....

It is funny though.
First I am pleased to see 3 Pakistani insititute in 30 because I was sure that there will not one even 1.


As Pakistan
National University of Science and Technology (NUST) got Rank 20 and it is not liked by many Pakistani in Pakistan.

People like LUMS and National University of Computer Science and Emerging Sciences (FAST), UET, NED, GIK .....

And Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto Inst. of Science & Tech (Pakistan) got rank 32. And it is the University which I will say not to go .....


What a Ranking.
This ranking is just like India cricket Players. Where Gonguly world one 1 Player, Tendulkar world # 2 and in first 10 players 5/6 are Indian and no Pakistani. And we see how good India team play in cricket and how good players they are....
