It is with great honor that I serve as an educational leader and the Vice-Chancellor of the first technical university in Sindh, the Benazir Bhutto Shaheed University of Technology and Skill Development, Khairpur Mirs. Being a Vice-Chancellor, my foremost object is to propel this university to new heights and to stimulate the students with ample opportunities in various Industries and Organizations.
Our first priority would be to facilitate our students particularly those from less privileged areas to become innovative and infuse among them with hands-on experience, through comprehensive monitoring, training, and industrial internships.
My utmost dedication lies in advancing the first technical university of Sindh and transforming it into a state-of-the-art institution. Accredited by the National Technology Council, Islamabad, we offer four-year undergraduate degree programs in Civil Technology, Electrical Technology, Electronics Technology, and Mechanical Technology. On top of it, we continue to provide high-quality education through our three-year Diploma of Associate Engineering program after Matriculation. To promote skill-based education, the university also offers six-month short courses in different trades, enabling the youth of our country to gain essential skills and start their businesses. Our mission is to empower the community with hands-on technological knowledge through high-quality teaching & research environment, innovative tools & techniques, and entrepreneurial & global leadership skills with the consciousness of ethical norms & values.
As Vice-Chancellor, I fully comprehend the challenges that lie ahead and the opportunities that we should able to offer. This is a unique chance to mold our students accordingly and infuse them with research-oriented skills. We shall be more dedicated & committed to the growth & development such as; technological innovations using Artificial Intelligence & Information Engineering.
