Message from Patron-in-chief (Ibadat Educational Trust)
My heartiest welcome to all the continuing and prospective students of
this prestigious and renowned University, The University of Lahore (UOL),
established in 1999 with the vision of becoming a world class educational
institution fulfilling all the learning needs of the students. The state-ofthe art facilities/infrastructure capable of offering innovative and quality
training in a conducive and highly developed learning environment have
partially contributed to its current status of being the largest private sector
University in Pakistan.
The university became a Degree Awarding Institution through a Charter by
the Government of Punjab in 2002 and the Higher Education Commission
(HEC) positioned it in the highest “W-4” category nationwide. Internationally,
the UOL is ranked amongst the top 301-350 universities of the world by
Times Higher Education Emerging Economics University Ranking 2019.
Such a status has been achieved through dedicated efforts of the Ibadat
Educational Trust (IET), the Board of Governors, teaching faculty and the
management of the University as a whole.
It is pertinent to mention that the regulatory bodies of the Government of
Pakistan that include Higher Education Commission of Pakistan, Pakistan
Medical Commission (PMC), Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC), Pakistan
Nursing Council, Pakistan Bar Council, Pharmacy Council of Pakistan etc.
have accredited all our professional programs. The university, thus, fully
adheres to all the required guidelines in the best interest of the institution
and the students.
The degree programs offered cater for the phenomenal changes unleashed
by the rapid advancement in science and technology as well as meeting
the challenges posed by globalization. With its professional competence,
commitment and dedication of the management, and the untiring efforts
of our highly qualified teaching faculty, I am confident that the university is
systematically achieving its prime objectives.
The university is playing a significant role in the lives of thousands of our
young students and graduates in various disciplines that include Medicine,
Dentistry, Engineering, Allied Health Sciences, Pure Sciences, Business
Studies, Information Technology, Computer Science, Arts and Social
Sciences. I am glad that the researchers and scholars of the UOL are working
as a team and fully contributing towards developing all-round manpower for
the benefit of our civil society.

THE BEGINNING OF UOL RELIEF
The University of Lahore is the largest Private Sector University in
Pakistan. We are thus, fully aware that our social responsibility and sense
of accountability is greater than others. We believe, that welfare and
community service are the key aims of acquiring knowledge and a good
education must create individuals who are citizens of the world.
Our major contribution so far, has been in the Gilgit Baltistan, KPK and
lower Punjab regions, majorly, because these regions are not accessible to
normal people; are frequently affected by natural calamities and are the
most under developed and adverse regions of Pakistan.
Being part of the trekking community, the UOL Relief is constantly called
for assistance by the mountain communities that otherwise, have no voice.
In the 2005 earthquake where everyone rushed towards Muzaffarabad to
give assistance, the UOL reached Balakot. In 2010, the Tattu valley, Raikot
valley, Gas bala, Talis in Skardu, Thalley Valley, which were badly affected
by flash floods and entire communities were wiped out.
The UOL tirelessly works to create as many volunteers as possible. Acting
on the belief acquired after more than 2 decades of community service
that “a trained volunteer is also a good human being, citizen, community
member, able to provide medical aid, respond effectively to emergencies
and calamities, exhibit gratitude and learn thankfulness.”
The UOL Relief Trust is the practical platform for the acquisition of this
belief.
