Background

In 1975, the Government of the Punjab decided to set up fourEngineering Colleges at Taxila, Multan, Faisalabad and Bahawalpur inthe same order of priority. In accordance with the decision of thePunjab Cabinet, the first Engineering College initially startedfunctioning at Sahiwal and was later, in 1978, shifted to Taxila as asecond campus of the University of Engineering and Technology,Lahore. Later its status was raised to an independent University ofEngineering and Technology. The proposal for the second College ofEngineering and Technology at Multan met the approval of theECNEC in September 1990.

The College of Engineering and Technology was thus established as aConstituent College of the BahauddinZakariya University, Multan. Itsbroad objective is to produce engineers at undergraduate level withBachelor’s degree in conventional fields of Civil, Building &Architectural, Electrical, Computer and Mechanical Engineering tomeet the engineering and technological manpower requirements of theprovince/country.

The College offers courses leading to the award of 4-Year engineeringdegree in Civil, Electrical, Building & Architectural, Computer and

Mechanical Engineering. The College envisages to provide teachingfacilities to more than 1000 students with intake of more than 250students per year (in all disciplines of Engineering) after thecompletion of the project. Due to certain spatial, financial andadministrative constraints, the College started Civil EngineeringProgram in 1994. In 1997, Electrical Engineering Program was started. In2004 three new disciplines namely Building & Architectural Engineering,Computer Engineering and Mechanical Engineering were launched.

Seventy acres of land at the campus of the University has beenallocated for the construction of various academic and administrativeblocks of the College. The plans of the administrative and academicblocks, with adequate space for class rooms and laboratories havebeen prepared. Purchase of equipment for laboratories and books forlibrary had already been taken in hand. The construction work of theCivil Engineering Department was completed in January, 1998. Theconstruction work of Electrical Engineering Department wascompleted in January, 2000 and that of Mechanical EngineeringDepartment was completed in May 2007. Moreover, the extension ofCivil and Electrical Engineering departments are also completed. Theconstruction of a boys hostel to accommodate 600 students, sevenresidences for teaching staff and twelve residences of other staff havealso been completed.

The University College of Engineering & Technology excels ininnovative teaching and research, in developing practical applicationsand approaches to problems and areas of study, and in preparingprofessionals and leaders who will have worldwide influence ontechnologies and societies.

Introduction

The city of Multan is the center of cotton producing region of theSouthern Punjab and therefore a need was being felt for an institutethat could provide skilled and technically trained manpower to thelocal textile industry especially one based on Cotton.

The Export Promotion Bureau (E.P.B.) in collaboration with MultanTextile Education Trust took the initiative and founded the Instituteof Handloom and Home Textile Technology (hereafterreferred to as I.H.H.T.T.). The I.H.H.T.T. offered a three years’Diploma of Associate Engineering (D.A.E. from now on) in textiletechnology.

Unfortunately, as more and more science got involved in industrialproduction of textiles, the inevitability presented itself and a higherdegree became quite indispensable. As a result I.H.H.T.T. was takenover by the university and a degree program for Textile Engineeringwas launched in August 2004 A.D.

Introduction

The establishment of Saraiki Area Study Centre (SASC) in BahauddinZakariya University was the outcome of the new perspectives on theSouthern Punjab/ Saraiki Region with Multan as its political,intellectual and cultural nucleus. Dr. Alamdar Hussain Bukhariprepared a proposal of establishing the Saraiki Area Study Centrewhich was appreciated by the Vice Chancellor and it came into beingon May 23, 2009 after the approval of the relevant authorities. SASChas a brief pre-history. The Saraiki Research Centre (SRC) wasestablished on September 2, 2000. A few important research projectswere completed and a number of books were published under itsumbrella. It metamorphosed into the Department of Saraiki in May2006, and the regular classes of M.A. Saraiki were started accordingly.Khawaja Ghulam Farid Chair has also been created for SASC.

The Saraiki Region, being a part of the vast area of the ancient IndusValley Civilization, owns rich traditions of language, literature,culture, history and archaeology etc. Saraiki is the ancient native

language of the Southern Punjab and several districts of Sindh,Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with centuries old sharedtraditions of literature and cultural activities.

The ex-Prime-Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gillani inaugurated theSaraiki Area Study Centre on 23rd January 2010. Earlier, thehonorable Prime Minister had announced the grant of 30 millionrupees for the strengthening and the development of the SASC. Acommemorative book “Saraiki Wasaib” was also published on thisoccasion.

It is worth mentioning that four new academic departments have beenapproved in the scheme of SASC which may be started in SASC asunder:

1. Department of Archaeology2. Department of Cultural Studies3. Department of Linguistic Communication4. Department of Post-Colonial Studies.

Department of SaraikiThe Department of Saraiki (established in 2006) is already functioningwith its regular classes as the premier department of the SASC in itselegant new building. The syllabus of M.A. Saraiki is designed withinter-disciplinary approach so that its graduates may get jobs inmedia, education and other GOs & NGOs. There is a very rich libraryof rare books, research journals, literary magazines and manuscriptswith more than eleven thousand books to its shelves. A large numberof books in the library include the valuable donations from AllamaAtique Fikri, Dr. Mehar Abdul Haq, Mian Mumtaz Somroo, WaliMuhammad Wajid, Qudratullh Shahab, Dr. Mohammad Amin, FaridPirzada, Hanif Chuadary, Muhammad Shafiq ur Rehman (the donationreceived recently through Mr. Niaz Somro) and Dr. Alamdar HussainBukhari.

There is also a newly established cultural museum/Archive and amodern computer lab to assist the researchers and the students fortheir studies and research. An audio/video recording studio and aconservation lab for museum is also being established with the help ofthe special grant from the Ex-Prime Minister Syed Yousuf RazaGillani (which we expect may be revalidated by the Government ofthe Punjab during the current financial Year). In near future, SASCintends to start diploma /certificate/degree programs in the above

115


mentioned disciplines. Some posts ofLecturers in Departments of Archaeology,Cultural Studies and Post-Colonial Studies.M.Phil program in Saraiki is also on toppriority. About two dozen research projectsabout the history, archaeology, culture,language and literature of the Saraiki regionhave been planned and completed in previousthree years. It is also going to launch acomprehensive publishing program in nearfuture and a number of books will bepublished in this year. A research journalSASC will also be published. The SASCarranges seminars, workshops, conferences,Mushairas and other literary and culturalactivities regularly.

Computer Science ProgramsComputer Science degree is an excellent preparation for a futurecareer. It sharpens the analytical skills of students as they discoverthe structures underlying software, stretches their creative talents asthey design new systems and gives them the confidence to markettheir ideas to the waiting world. The students will come to understandwhy systems work as they do - and what they learn will never go outof date for as long as people go on using computers. Althoughfashions in packages and programming languages come and go, the

principles do not change and Computer Science is about principles.Yet it is more than that: the software packages we take for grantedtoday are among the most complex artifacts ever created. Tounderstand them one requires a degree of intellectual activity-matchingthat is required in any longer established Sciences.

Introduction

Molecular Biology and Biotechnology is defined as the application ofscientific and engineering principles to the processing of materials bybiological agents to produce goods and services. The completion ofhuman genome and Arabidopsis genome projects in the year 2000were great breakthroughs in the field of biotechnology. In the pasttwenty years, unprecedented progress in molecular biology &biotechnology has been observed, which has made revolutionaryimpacts on every aspect of human activity such as agriculture,forestry, horticulture, livestock, health, medicine and environment. Inagriculture, it is predicted that the next green revolution or moreappropriately “evergreen revolution” will be due to biotechnologicalinnovations. In livestock, production of new transgenic animals willnot only meet the future needs of protein, dairy products etc butthese animals could also be used as bioreactor for the production forvarious pharmaceuticals products. New safe protein drugs,particularly by site-directed mutagenesis, vaccines, diagnostic kits,antibiotics and enzymes can be produced by exploiting thebiotechnology in the field of medicine (Medical biotechnology). Thegenetic based diagnostic assays for some genetic disorders and otherdiseases have already been developed and their treatment by genetherapy would be possible.

The primary objective of the Institute of Molecular Biology &Biotechnology (IMBB) is to produce manpower that can contributeto the development of Pakistan particularly in science and technologyand its economy in general. Institute of Biotechnology has beenestablished with initial HEC grant of 38 million rupees. It offersM.Sc., M.Phil and PhD programs of study. The Institute houses mostmodern teaching and research laboratories with the following

Introduction

Biochemistry is at the core of basic discipline of life sciences.Graduates of biochemistry may serve in the pharmaceutical and foodindustries of Pakistan. A number of opportunities are also available inclinical laboratories and research institutions. Over the last 40 yearsbiochemistry has become so successful at explaining living processesthat now almost all areas of the life sciences are engaged inbiochemical research. Today the main focus of pure biochemistry is tounderstand how biological molecules give rise to the processes thatoccur within living cells. This in turn relates greatly to the study andunderstanding of whole organisms.

The discipline of Biochemistry was working under the umbrella ofChemistry since 1975 at Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan. Alarge number of students have obtained their M.Sc, M.Phil and PhDdegrees in Chemistry with specialization in Biochemistry. Keeping inview the need of subject in the Country particularly in SouthernPunjab, an independent Department was established in August, 2012.Presently the Department of Biochemistry is running BS (4-year),M.Sc., M.Phil and PhD programs of study. The department alsocaters subsidiary requirements of allied biological subjects. Curriculahave been developed under the guideline of Higher EducationCommission to cover all the recent areas of Biochemistry.

Library of the Department is equipped with latest and modern booksof biochemistry and allied disciplines such as, biology, genetics,biotechnology, immunology, agriculture and microbiology.Presently, the Department is using facilities available at the Instituteof Chemical Sciences for the training of the students in practical skillsand research work. The Department has also established

IntroductionDepartment of Environmental Sciences has been established in June2010 keeping in view the pivotal importance of this subject inPakistan. This subject has gathered a high reputation all around theworld due to its applied nature. Environmental science is acosmopolitan subject because it deals with various branches of studieslike chemistry, physics, botany, zoology, geology, geography, andpublic health etc. It focuses on the sources, reactions, transport,effects and fate of physical and biological species in the air, water andsoil along with the effects of human activity upon these. Air, water,land, and noise pollution constantly imperil quality of life and damagethe pristine environment. World today is facing serious environmentalcrisis, for instance, increase in the heat budget of the earth, depletionof non-renewable resources, air pollution, pollution of surface &ground waters, heavy metal pollution, massive destruction of habitats,deforestation, mining, over-fishing and radiation pollution. Ecosystemof earth is very fragile, and that man’s tampering with it may, in the

end, make the earth unlivable, not only for man but for all life forms.

Environmental pollution drastically reduces the productivity ofplants, and is primarily involved in causing several illnesses to thehumans: ranging from breathing disorders, cancer, stomach upset, skinallergies, cardiovascular problems, neurobehavioral ailments, kidneydamage, typhoid, hepatitis, and most of the enteric & diarrhealdiseases due to transmittance of microorganisms via the contaminatedwater. Atmospheric climate of major cities of Pakistan is also in gravedanger due to unchecked noxious emissions by motor traffic,industries and other sources. Hence, Pakistan is plagued with amultitude of environmental problems that needs urgent attention andappropriate action to save the environment for better tomorrow.Department of Environmental Science herein BZ University, Multanwill contribute devoted and skilled manpower to address theenvironmental problems of the country on scientific grounds. Parallelto research activities, graduates from this discipline will impart theirknowledge at graduate and postgraduate levels at various educationalinstitutions of Pakistan and abroad.

Objectives

Environmental awareness among society and especially in studentswill be of utmost importance as they are future leaders, futurecustodians, planners, policy makers, and educators of theenvironmental issues. Students will undertake basic and appliedresearch on different environmental issues, and will assist governmentdepartments, private sector, and other relevant organizations on theframing of rules & regulations along with establishment of appropriateinstitutions and systems etc. Following are the key objectives ofDepartment of Environmental Science:

1. To produce enthusiastic, skilled and motivated environmentalists2. Addressing environmental issues and hazardous wastes/effluents3. Solid waste management/recycling technologies4. Causes and control of air, water and land pollution5. Integrated pest management/biological control of diseases6. Improving & conserving biodiversity and supporting forestry7.

Background:

The acute shortage of forestry area in Pakistan covering only 4.2% ofthe forest resource on contrary to minimum inevitable 25% for acountry, existing forests merely caging the demand for escalatingpopulation. The Punjab is even more constrained having only 2.3%area under forest. Moreover, illegal cutting, fire, insect pests anddiseases (Shisham dieback the most important) and a number ofadministrative and political constraints have dented the resource quiteheavily and seized its current capacity by exposing this country tolethal hazards, the most recent is the devastated floods hit almostwhole of the nation, forest degradation is one of the root cause of thismenace. To be very straight, it is indispensable to increase tree coverin every possible way, the success to this boulevard to increase

trained manpower crammed with latest forestry knowledge and anattitude to serve the country.

Forestry sector plays an important role in soil conservation, regulatesflow of water for irrigation and power generation, reduction ofsedimentation in water conveyance and reservoirs, employment andmaintenance of ecological balance. The rapid deforestation,desertification and associated environmental hazards are negativelyinfluencing the climate, the flora and fauna, the economy andultimately the ever rising population which makes it mandatory torespond to these menaces. What is more appropriate in addition toother factors is to disseminate appropriate knowledge and skills andtrain manpower that aid in tackling pathetic forestry situation of thecountry. The Forestry Department at FAS&T will have multitudinalof benefits. The unique position of the university in the SouthernPunjab and the FAS&T are conducting research and developmentactivities towards various aspects of’ crop production, Nevertheless,a wide variety of tree plantations rangelands, wildlife, watersheds andbiodiversity conservation with special reference to forestry situationin the country remained unexplored. Student wishing to undertakeforestry as profession have to go else where in perusing theprofession of their interest. There is also a dearth of training toforestry professionals and institutions involved in various sections offorestry management especially in Punjab and generally the entirecountry. The forestry department shall offer courses towardssustainable natural resource management, research towards exploringthe status and potential of different forest types, irrigated plantationfor improving of the forestry situation. Furthermore, the Departmentshall also a distinctive place for rendering training to farmers anddevelopment professional of the public and private sector of southernPunjab in nursery management, tree-crop interface management andattainment of major and minor products and utilization of resourcesinto secondary products and services.

Introduction

Agriculture sector plays a vital role in Pakistan’s economy. It is the2nd largest sector, accounting for over 21% to GDP. The sectoremploys about 45% of the country’s total labour work force. Almost62% of the country’s population live in rural areas and is directly orindirectly linked with agriculture for their livelihood. The sector is aprimary supplier of raw materials to downstream industry,contributing substantially to Pakistan’s exports.

There are three ecological zones in Punjab i.e. Barani Districts,Northern Irrigated Districts and Southern Irrigated Districts includingCholistan. Layyah is located in Barani Area and is situated betweenthe rivers Indus and Chenab in the central area of Pakistan. Thedistrict has variety of soils, being more fertile on western side near theIndus River and barren in the east. As we go from west to east, soilfertility decreases and at the extreme east there is desert “Thal” withsand dunes. The western areas of the district are canal irrigated whilethe eastern part is rain fed (Barani). Due to varsity in ecologicalconditions, almost all types of agronomic and vegetable crops andtropical and subtropical fruits can be grown. The district also hasforests, rangelands and livestock farms. As far as geographicalposition is concerned, Bhakkar district is in the north, Muzaffargarhis in the south, Jhang is in the east and Tehsil Taunsa Sharif of D.G

Khan district is in the west across the Indus river. Human populationof Layyah is 1.1 million as per Population Census 1998, percentagebreak-up of the rural and urban population is 87.2 and 12.8respectively.

In the neighbouring districts of Layyah i.e. Bhakkar, Mianwali,Khushab, Jhang and Muzaffar Garh there is no Agricultural College tooffer graduate and postgraduate degree programs. District Layyah isone of the least industrially developed districts of Punjab. Majority ofthe population depends upon agriculture for their livelihood. Realizingthe need for the agriculture in the area, Honourable Chief MinisterPunjab approved the establishment of the College of Agriculture atBahadur Sub-campus of Bahauddin Zakariya University at Layyah in2011. In this College, the study will be focused on all aspects of cropproduction, protection and improvement. This will help in povertyalleviation in region and at the same time will help in the enhancementof food production to feed the increasing population in the country.

The establishment of Agriculture College will enhance the number ofagricultural graduates in Punjab. The College has initiated 4-yearsdegree program of B.Sc (Hons.)
