University Building

The government of Punjab has established a state of the art Ghazi University in D.G.Khan since 2011. The Govt. Postgraduate college, Bzu sub campus, Agriculture college and Ghazi Medical College will work under this university. In order to improve the academic facilities of remote areas, former Governor of Punjab Lt General (Rtd) Khalid Maqbool opened up sub campuses of the public sector universities with a vision to transform them into independent universities in future. With this vision in mind D.G.Khan sub campus was established in 2004 by Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan. The campus has grown from one department to five departments within a span of just five years with many new departments in pipeline as well. The goal of the campus has always been to produce quality rather than quantity. Focus has always been to develop close liaison with the industry, for this regular industrial visits are arranged. Eminent regional as well as national business leaders are invited to give regular seminars. To orient students with professional knowledge internships are arranged for the students. Programs that are currently being conducted are MBA, BBA (Morning and Evening), MBA Executive, MBA-IT, MCS, MSc Economics and MA English. Recently, the campus has added a new program of MSc Sociology. Programs like BS(CS), BS(IT), MIT and MCS(Evening) are in pipeline. Along with new programs the university is thinking about starting new departments like Biotechnology, Statistics, Environmental Studies, Mass Communication and Performing Arts. The campus is currently equipped with a state of the art computer lab. The lab also includes the facility of HEC Digital library. Soon a new computer lab with the latest machines will also be established along with a high speed DSL. The campus in near future will be operating Wi-Fi technology. Video conferencing will be available to the students in the future as well. The library includes all reference books of the courses that are being conducted as well as other books. An improvement of the library is also in process. Students will be provided with latest edition of well reputed journals.
