Vice-Chancellor’s Message
Dear Student,
Allama Iqbal Open University (AIOU) is one of the mega universities of the world and it
occupies a unique position in the education sector of Pakistan, because of its affordability
and high quality distance and online academic programs. AIOU has now turned into the
most favorite university of the country with high international repute. The university made
a landmark progress by ensuring access to quality education for rural areas’ under-
privileged students and the people of all ages particularly the females can now select and
join the programs of their choice, while sitting at their residence and simultaneously
continuing their jobs. After assessing the success of many degree programs in Pakistan,
AIOU is now going to offer a variety of range programs for students residing worldwide.
More than 1.3 million students are getting benefits from the high quality educational
services of AIOU in all regions of the country through more than fifty regional offices of the university. It offers-suggests many
undergraduate and postgraduate programs at rural and remote areas providing an unparalleled opportunity to all the poor and
deprived segments of the society at an affordable cost. The university has recently digitalized all its student-support services for
facilitating its students on priority basis. This digitization of the system, it is hoped, will enable AIOU students to get all discipline
of educational programmes using their Learning Management System (LMS) portal support online.
Committed to your bright future.

Prof. Dr. Nasir Mahmood
Vice Chancellor
