Message From

Vice Chancellor

It is a pleasure to note the Directorate of Evening

Program enhancing the scope of its services that

has enabled more and more intake of students in

the Evening Program. This signifies that more

students are able to benefit from the University of

Karachi. Professional and In-services students

are to take most of the advantage of the Evening

Program degree, diploma and certificate programs. It is envisaged that in time

to come, number of students in the Evening Program will be close to that in the

morning session.

During the last about two decades, since its inception, the Evening Program

session has emerged as a vital academic segment of the University of Karachi.

Combined efforts and willingness of the management of the Directorate of

Evening Program, its faculty team, staff and the students have made it possible

to keep the studies going on with all satisfaction.

In the present knowledge-based world, it is essential that students and

teachers keep themselves very suitably updated with current knowledge,

skills, discoveries and inventions so that the students, after graduation, are in

an ideal position to start their career in employment, business or industry in

the private and public sectors. As for the University of Karachi, it will keep up

its strife for improving the academic and research standards.

Prof. Dr. Muhammad Qaiser
