From The Head of Business School

 Dear Department of Management Sciences students, faculty, staff and friends,
 

Couple of years ago when I returned home after two decades of work and study in Europe and North America, I was planning the next move in my academic career. After spending eighteen months in the most prestigious Pakistani universities in the federal capital and then one year in Peshawar, I was considering to join a school really contributing in the Sustainability of local Businesses and providing talented and skilled managers to the industry. Iqra University Islamabad campus was the organization that I decided to be part of in the years to come.

Before finalizing my plan to move to the beautiful city of Islamabad, I asked myself if Iqra is for me. Islamabad is a city with incredible learning opportunities, diverse culture and a city where its easy to invite foreign scholars in the class rooms to add value in the professional portfolio of tomorrow's executives.

Iqra University Islamabad Campus (IUIC) learning community contributes to all parts of the world by inviting foreign faculty, arranging student exchange programs and training executives through executive development program. Our faculty members are among the best in their area of research and are recruited from the finest academic institutions in the world. Faculty members have proven track records as academics, researchers and practitioners.

Our students and executive development participants join us from Pakistan, Afghanistan, middle east, and African nations. So what is this experience that inspires so many people to join Iqra University Islamabad campus?

  1. Personal Touch; we are a school on very personal scale. Your personal commitment to learn and our personal attention and commitment to share knowledge is matched by our faculty and staff team.
  2. We are a dedicated professional school of higher education involve in teaching and research.
  3. We offer a life changing education experience to our students. Our strong collaboration with the industry and commitment to excellence makes us unique in the higher education sector.

As Head of Business School, I am very proud of the Faculty, its members, staff, students and all that they have accomplished in the past.

I look forward to continuing to work with this exceptional team of intellectuals and all our stakeholders as we strive to continue to dare to make a world of difference.

With best wishes and warm regards,

Dr. Ijaz A. Qureshi
