Comparison of Riphah International University & LUMS Pakistan - Education

Various private and government sector universities are offering management science department for educational services. These also include many new universities, but we have to find out whether the attributes of education and facilities match with the standards set forth by benchmark universities or not.

Riphah International University Pakistan is one of the most recent universities of our times. It is set forth to produce more dynamic, highly skilled, and progressive individuals in the country. It conducts various undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate programs in the field of Computing, Engineering and Applied Sciences, Health and Medical Sciences, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Management Sciences and Islamic Business.

It implements all the policies set by Higher Education Commission and strives to fulfill all the criteria for a standard university which include:

Library: is the main area of focus for students and researchers during their career studies. It includes all printed and unprinted resources, including books, CDs. CD-ROM and online database facilities. These facilities are up to the quality innovative services standards.

Learning Resource Centre: Just like research centers located in management faculties of big universities like LUMS Pakistan, the Learning Resource Centre provides visual, audio, internet, video cassettes and online article libraries to explore more both at campus and hostel.

Career Opportunities: At Riphah International University Pakistan are also enhanced by different job expos and placement programs organized by the university. The level of exposure is though less than that provided at Lahore University of Management Sciences but surely is flourishing with increasing time and repute of university.

Computer and Networking Facilities: These include computer labs with latest systems, with file storage mail and printer settings. Also some computer assisted learning programs, on-hand trainings, along with LAN WAN and DSL facilities are provided for students usage.

Workshops, Seminars and TV talk shows: Is a source of self expression and knowledge acquisition portals. Group discussions and educational trips are also provided as a mode to transfer knowledge and sharing ideas among the students.

Islamic Business School and strict rules on wearing proper uniform: are two aspects which distinguish Riphah International University from LUMS and other universities. Islamic Business is a field which is not as much highlighted in LUMS as it is in Riphah International University. Also wearing a proper uniform is mandatory for students while in campus premises.

Though Lahore University of Management Sciences is way further in terms of capacity, resources and educational excellence, Riphah International University has not yet less to offer. It is special in its own way, specifically if you are living in Islamabad or if value an Islamic way of Studies.
