Dean's Message

The University College of Engineering & Technology (UCET) was established in 1999 as a constituent college of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur and was elevated to the status of the Faculty of Engineering in 2019. The Faculty is committed to providing cutting-edge engineering education for aspiring young engineers across Pakistan, particularly from Southern Punjab, while ensuring the overall academic and professional development of its students.

The Faculty currently offers undergraduate programs in Electronic Engineering, Computer Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering (Power), Electrical Engineering (Communication), and Civil Engineering. Graduate studies include MS programs in Electronic, Computer Systems and Electrical Engineering, while the PhD Engineering program was launched in 2019. Recently, the Higher Education Commission approved the PC-1 for establishing the Department of Mechanical Engineering. All undergraduate engineering programs are accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).

More than 60 highly qualified faculty members, the majority holding PhD degrees, are engaged in teaching approximately 800 undergraduate and postgraduate students. The Faculty offers an excellent academic environment supported by state-of-the-art laboratories, spacious air-conditioned classrooms, a well-stocked engineering library with more than 40,000 books, modern computing laboratories equipped with over 400 computers, and multimedia-enabled teaching facilities. Graduates of the Faculty continue to play a pivotal role in serving the nation as competent engineers.

Vision
