UIT’s Motto
Would You Not Deliberate
This is a question that the Quran puts to mankind. In interpretation, however, it is a subtle call for thinking,
contemplation and reflection, a theme that has been repeated in the Quran several times in a variety of
contexts. The Quran has not simply handed down an advocacy for thinking and reflection as a free floating
abstract but has provided a kind of pathway starting with thinking about “self” to the “creations in the
universe”, “conquest of universe and forces of nature”, leading ultimately to the understanding of the
“Creator Himself”. For example: “Do they not reflect within themselves” [30:8] “Indeed, in the creation of
the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day are signs for those of understanding
who reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth, [saying], “Our Lord, You did not create this in
vain.”
“…… and We (thus) present to people similitudes that perhaps they will think”.[59:21]
“He has made subject to you the Night and the Day; the Sun and the Moon and the Stars are in subjugation
by His command. Verity in this are signs for men who use wisdom.” [16: 12]
“Every human initiative starts with a thought” says Maulana Rumi, “That is followed by action”.
The French philosopher Descartes on his truth-seeking journey came to doubt everything: except ability
to think. Thus, his words “I think, therefore, I exist” became the beacon of the Renaissance and the western
civilization for centuries to come.
Allama Iqbal lamented just over a century ago in his Reconstruction: “For the last 500 years, religious
thought in Islam has been practically stationary.”
This Divine Message is placed in the logo for our students, other members of the UIT family and any one
who reads it to engage in reflective thinking along the lines prescribed in the divine guidance.
Director’s Message

Director’s Message
After over 20 years of building a solid foundation of high quality engineering and
computer science education and research, both at the undergraduate and master’s
levels, Usman Institute of Technology (UIT) is embarking on a journey to reach the
next level of excellence. It aims to not just produce high class engineers and
computer scientists but professionals and change agents. These agents of change
other than being better human beings and better citizens of our beloved country,
would be ready to tackle the problems that beset our country with leadership,
ingenuity and the highest level of moral and ethical values.
In its path to excellence UIT graduates will now get locally and internationally respected NED University’s
degrees in a private, centrally located, serene, apolitical and highly enriching educational environment.
Providing students excellent opportunities to enhance their knowledge and skills and then go out and serve
the nation with dedication and high level of professional excellence. Highly congenial environment provides
ample opportunities to establish lifelong bonds of friendships. Ample opportunities exist to not only develop
technical knowledge and skills but also leadership, critical thinking, innovation, inter-personnel,
communication and entrepreneurship skills.
The world of today is characterized with rapid changes in technology, information overload and degradation
of moral and ethical values. UIT graduates are able to succeed in this environment as they have the “Learn
to Learn” ability, to cope with new technologies that will come their way after graduation; ability to critically
analyze large amounts of data to come up with innovative solutions and then be able to make rapid decisions
as to which solution to use. While doing this they will continue to uphold meritocracy, integrity, transparency
and moral values in the face of degradation all around.
Over the years UIT’s over 3,500 graduates who have gone out in the field are creating trail blazing paths and
making a difference in Pakistan and abroad in various areas of endeavor. They are making their impact felt in
many fields. A sample of organizations where they are making difference are: Accenture; Atlas Group; Avanza
Solutions; Bank of America; British Telecom; BOURBON; Cybernet; Ericsson; Etisalat; General Tyre & Rubber
Co.; Huawei Technologies; HUBCO; Indus Motor Company; Jaffer Business Systems; King Fahd University
of Petroleum & Minerals; K-Electric; Mobilink; Mobily Saudia; Motorola; National Telecommunication Corp.;
Netsol Technologies; Orange Stream, Australia; Pakistan Army; Pakistan Cables; Pak Suzuki Motor; Pakistan
Telecommunication Company (PTCL); Pfizer; Saudi Electricity Company; Shell; Saudi Telecom Company;
Siemens; Sony Corp.; Standard Chartered Bank; Telenor; Ufone; Unilever and Walmart.
UIT provides a number of scholarships for brilliant and needy students.
The Final Year Projects of UIT students’ have been awarded many prizes at various competitions and UIT’s
faculty have published many books and many research papers that have been published in journals of repute.
I would like to welcome the students’ of 2016 intake to the UIT family. I am sure that the four years that they
spend at this institute will be professionally enriching and enjoyable and they would remember these years
throughout their life.

specifications and requirements and new products should
be implemented to facilitate the growth of computational
and technological needs of the institute.
The following systems currently in use have been
developed by the department, after thorough analysis and
research:
• Book Bank
• Student Portal
• Website of UIT
