Ranking of Pakistani Universities by HEC for 2015

The Higher Education Commission of Pakistan has issued a ranking of the Pakistani Universities and Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) for the year 2015. The ranking has been done in different categories namely;

• Overall Top 10 HEIs of the country
• General
• Engineering & Technology
• Business Education
• Agriculture & Veterinary
• Medical
• Arts & Design

Purpose and Objective of HEC Rankings of Pakistani Universities

The ranking of the Pakistani Universities and Higher Educational Institutions is done by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan with the intent to promote a culture of competition and improve their participation in the socio-economic development of the country.

HEC keeps in view certain criteria to maintain objectivity in determining these rankings. This criteria includes allotting scores to the universities and HEIs based on their reports and performance for;

• Quality Assurance (15 Marks)
• Teaching Quality (30 Marks)
• Research (41 Marks)
• Finance & Facilities (10 Marks)
• Social Integration / Community Development (4 Marks) 

The details of this ranking criteria is available at the HEC website.

Criticism / Expert Reservations on HEC Ranking

Experts are of the view that flaws exist in the ranking criteria designed by HEC, because it offers no weightage to certain performance measuring parameters such as employability of graduates produced, perception of students and employers and the international outlook of the institution(s).

Another strong reservations raised is that HEC should not be ranking the Higher Educational Institutions of Pakistan at all, as HEC is the funding source of Public Sector Universities and therefore according to proponents of this view; it cannot maintain neutrality in ranking the institutions. This task rather could be done by a neutral body as is the practice globally (Times Higher Education World University Rankings and Maclean's University Rankings of Canada).

HEC offering Indigenous Ph.D. Scholarships for promoting R&D in Pakistani Universities

The Higher Education Commission of Pakistan offers Indigenous Scholarships for Ph.D. studies in Pakistani Universities to Pakistani and AJK Nationals. This Scholarship scheme is offered for direct Ph.D. studies as well as for MS/M.Phil. admissions leading to Ph.D studies. The detailed eligibility for the HEC Indigenous Scholarships is given below;

1. Must be Pakistani or AJK National
2. To study MS/M.Phil via this scholarship, one must have 16 years education without any 3rd division or D Grade in the entire academic qualifications.
3. To study Ph.D. directly through this Scholarship, one must have a CGPA of 3.0 out of 4.0 or 1st Division in MS/M.Phil along with the precondition (2).
4. Maximum age should be;
1. 40 years for Public Sector/R&D Organizations Employees including Full-Time Regular faculty members of public universities / DAIs
2. 35 years for everybody else
5. Should not have availed any other scholarship offered by the HEC or Government.

Donate us and serve in promoting the noble cause of education

Pakistani Universities blog is an unofficial / private effort initiated with the aims of promoting awareness and access to resources of higher education in Pakistan and abroad. It is a platform that 100's of students visit daily and get at-least some type of guidance from, related to their higher studies and future career opportunities. In future, it is desired to become a single location for providing various services to potential and real students such as;

• Providing a database of academic programs offered by Pakistani Universities
• Providing a single platform for admission notices, result announcements and introductory information of all Pakistani Universities
• Becoming a resource on student guidance relating to higher studies
• Hiring of staff for carrying out all these functions

For these purposes, your donations are invited to enable the blog owner hire efficient staff and finance for the requisite planned services. At present, this blog is unable to manage these expenses and thus feeling short of its potential to serve the society in promoting the noble cause of education.

Your donations would therefore be welcomed, and used 100% in improving the services this blog offers to its audience. Donate us, and serve this pious objective.

Note: You can donate any amount of your choice.
