The Faculty of Engineering aims to develop and produce the next generation of accomplished engineers, scientists, researchers, innovators, and entrepreneurs with strong technical and analytical skills. We offer two four-year undergraduate degree programs: B.E. in Biomedical Engineering and BS in Robotics and Intelligent Systems, along with ME and PhD programs in Biomedical Engineering. Our engineering program is recognized and accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).
The B.E. Biomedical Engineering program is designed to produce engineers with a competitive edge in both knowledge and technical skills through inquiry, research, and experimentation. On the other hand, the B.S. in Robotics and Intelligent Systems program focuses on robotics and intelligent system analysis and application, preparing students to meet the growing global demand in these cutting-edge fields.
For both programs, the faculty of engineering has adopted a globally competitive curriculum that incorporates theoretical knowledge with hands-on training and learning using state-of-the-art equipment. This allows students to solve complex engineering problems and enables them to enhance their technical skills in various industries such as automation, artificial intelligence, and healthcare, both nationally and internationally.
Our well-qualified and experienced faculty ensures that the program’s learning outcomes are achieved. We emphasize student-teacher interaction to provide an optimal learning environment, where strong emphasis is laid on Industry-Academia collaboration. To support this, we have an Industrial Advisory Board that facilitates the development of insights on current trends in the healthcare industry and emerging technologies by arranging class lectures, seminars, webinars, field visits, and workshops for students.
For continuous quality improvement, the Board of Studies and Board of Faculty regularly review and discuss curricula and related matters, ensuring that our programs remain relevant and up-to-date. On behalf of the Faculty of Engineering, I welcome you to join an innovative world of Engineering and Science and wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
Department of Biomedical Engineering
The Faculty of Engineering offers a variety of programs in engineering, science, and technology. These programs aim to improve educational standards and solve real-world problems through ideas and innovation. Our programs focus on engineering and computing principles, problem-solving approaches, and the development of innovative solutions in healthcare, robotics, and intelligent systems
As technology advances, the global demand for biomedical, robotics, and AI experts is rising globally. To meet this demand, we offer two four-year, well-structured undergraduate degree programs: BE Biomedical Engineering and BS Robotics and Intelligent Systems, along with ME and PhD in Biomedical Engineering. All programs follow the Higher Education Commission (HEC) and the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) guidelines, ensuring compliance with the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) system.
Our curriculum is designed to provide a solid engineering foundation coupled with hands-on expertise in state-of-the-art laboratories. The BE Biomedical Engineering program focuses on integrating engineering with medical sciences, covering areas such as medical device design, bioinstrumentation, and healthcare technology management. The BS Robotics and Intelligent Systems program covers robotics, AI, Machine Learning, and Autonomous Systems, preparing students for technological advancement.
The ME Biomedical Engineering programs emphasize advanced areas such as Physiological Modeling and simulation, Biomedical Imaging, Signal Processing, Medical device design and the application of AI and health care. The PhD Biomedical Engineering program is designed to unlock new frontiers in Biomedical research, equipping graduates with the expertise to lead cutting-edge research and innovation in health care.
Beyond regular classes, we enhance technical and professional skills through seminars, workshops, and internships, preparing students for research, development, and innovation. Our experienced faculty, modern infrastructure, and supportive environment help turn theoretical knowledge into real world solutions for future engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs.
To maintain continuous improvement and high educational standards, the Faculty of Engineering has established a Board of Studies (BoS), a Board of Faculty (BoF), and an Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) made up of professionals, industry experts, entrepreneurs, and consultants. These bodies guide student’s professional development, ensuring their ability to secure job placement and entrepreneurial opportunities.
