ABOUT LUMS

Located in one of South Asia’s culturally vibrant and historic city of Lahore, LUMS is Pakistan’s leading research-intensive university, excelling in teaching and driven by a philosophy of Learning Without Borders. The University is home to a dozen transdisciplinary centres, which address the grand challenges facing our country that are interconnected, universal and highly complex.

These centres act as hubs for collaboration across disciplines. They work on grand challenges regarding water, energy, policy, entrepreneurship and business in society while contributing to solving national and contemporary regional issues.

LUMS is committed to its vision for making world-class education more accessible to learners from across Pakistan and beyond. The University also takes pride in providing significant financial support to one-third of its students by offering 30% to 140% tuition waivers. With a strength of 4,983 students recruited from 136 cities, towns and villages, collectively speaking over 70 languages, the student body at LUMS represents a mosaic of cultural heritage that mirrors a mini-Pakistan. LUMS students exemplify diversity and access irrespective of social, economic or geographic barriers.

 

Schools and Faculty

With multidisciplinary learning across five Schools including Business, Humanities and Social Science, Science and Engineering, Law and Education, LUMS has produced outstanding change-makers and leaders amongst its 14,298 alumni. The founding Suleman Dawood School of Business is the first and only one in Pakistan to have earned AACSB International—The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business accreditation. To promote gender diversity, the School awards a 50% tuition fee waiver to all women enrolled in its MBA, EMBA and MS programmes.

LUMS established the first 4-year undergraduate across disciplines and a 5-year law programme setting national standards that have been emulated by most universities in Pakistan. Its largest School, Mushtaq Ahmad Gurmani School of Humanities and Social Sciences, is known for the most progressive liberal arts curriculum in South Asia. LUMS scientists and engineers at the Syed Babar Ali School of Science and Engineering are making research breakthroughs in cybersecurity, data privacy, nanoscience and energy that are being adopted by national policymakers in the public and private sectors. LUMS faculty include the largest concentration of economists and legal experts in the country while its nascent Syed Ahsan Ali and Syed Maratib Ali School of Education is focussing its efforts to impact educational leadership and high quality, sustainable teacher training.

 

Enhancing the Student Experience

LUMS offers a residential experience on a 100-acre campus often described as a botanical garden. It has multiple facilities for sports including indoor swimming, basketball, squash, tennis and fields for soccer and cricket.

The University’s Pedagogical Partnership Programme is the first of its kind in South Asia. It strives to offer every student a paid partnership experience. Hundreds of students apply each semester to collaborate with faculty and staff to design courses, offer feedback on teaching, engage in research and work directly with service units on campus. The addition of two summer semesters offering courses across the five Schools makes LUMS a tri-semester university.

Co-curricular activities supported by an elected Student Council, 54 Student Societies and leadership positions in academic, disciplinary, and Student Support Offices differentiates LUMS from other universities in Pakistan. The University’s commitment to innovative teaching and rich learning experiences explains why over 1,400 employers annually recruit 92% of LUMS graduates within 6 months.
