Good University

Quaid-i-Azam University is a very good option for the students of Pakistan. It is the best university of Pakistan. I belong to psychology department and have completed my masters from this university in mid 2020. It is a public university. The university has best Natural sciences department in whole Pakistan. Talking about its professors they are one of the most talented professors of Pakistan. Talking about its international status again being the best university in Pakistan. Many students from Asia and Africa comes to Quaid-i-Azam university. The location of this university is very good as it is present in Islamabad the capital of Pakistan. The university area wise is huge. Talking about its student life its not very good nor very bad either the main problem is religions groups of the university that are the main problem. Accommodation is poor hostels are present but i personally would prefer talking hostel outside of campus. Facilities are present and are good.

A good university

This institution focuses not only on course books education but also on ethical and moral education as well. After graduating not only you get degree but also you gain knowledge about yourself to become better citizen and human. Definitely recommended.

NUML
