The Emerging
ENTREPRENEURIAL
UNIVERSITY
in Pakistan
Strong leadership, noble governance and a culture of partnerships, and internationalization are
some of the essential elements of an entrepreneurial university. The primary goal of establishing a
university is nation building through innovation, commercialization and entrepreneurship.
GIFT University is the Emerging Entrepreneurial University in Pakistan, which focuses on
technology and innovation as the key drivers of innovation.
The highly professional and competent faculty is committed to training people for their
professional lives ahead. The quality of graduates passing out from GIFT, are highly in demand
both nationally and globally.
The standard of education here is evolving in response to the knowledge economy.
Entrepreneurship is being practically applied in the curricula as well as the University’s culture at
the school, department and unit level.
It is equally important for a university to have entrepreneurial staff. Therefore, GIFT University’s
Faculty Development Department (FDD) serves this purpose through training and informative
sessions for staff development.
Today’s academic era is all about technological interaction and learning through visual and
multimedia sources. Moreover, research and development serves as a basis for innovation and
entrepreneurial notions.
GIFT University is home to business incubation facility. Our Office of Research, Innovation and
Commercialization (ORIC) actively works to support its students to materialize unique and
productively innovative business ideas to create more entrepreneurs contributing to the welfare of
the economy.
Moreover, GIFT University not just emphasizes the exchange of ideas and knowledge but also
encourages culture exchange of its students and staff, to promote internationalization. To serve
this purpose, the Corporate and International Relations Office (CIRO) makes arrangements for
such institutional partnerships and corporate liaisons in the form of Semester Exchange, Boot
camps, tours and faculty training.
GIFT University is strongly emerging as one of the benchmark institutes promoting quality
education with an entrepreneurial approach.

Position: Dean
Faculty: Engineering & Applied Sciences
I welcome you, on behalf of the faculty and staff, at the GIFT School of

Dr. Muhammad Asir Ajmal
Position: Dean
Faculty: Arts, Social Sciences, Fine Arts, Design and Architecture
A broad-based liberal arts education is necessary for the well-rounded
development of our young people. Pakistan needs young men and
women who can think originally, creatively, and deeply about the
issues facing the nation.
The School of Arts & Social Sciences provides a broad-based
education in languages, mass communication, and religious studies,
including Islamic history, culture, and civilization. We also offer the
whole range of social sciences, including psychology, political science,
sociology, education, and many other subjects. We cater to the needs
of the mothers of tomorrow by offering courses in home economics,
interior design, and food & nutrition, among other disciplines.
We also provide support to our professional schools by providing them
with liberal arts courses so that their students also receive the right
balance between highly specialised training and a well-rounded
education.
While GIFT is dedicated to the mission of bringing applied knowledge
to our region, the School of Arts & Social Sciences provides the
theoretical and philosophical background necessary to give meaning
to any professional enterprise undertaken by the student.
The School of Fine Arts, Design, & Architecture (SFADA) is known for its
trained designers and entrepreneurs who have changed the face of
fashion in Gujranwala. Its innovative programs attract most of the
creative and enthusiastic students, not just from Gujranwala but also
from across the region.
SFADA is committed to providing a distinctively holistic and hands-on
experience where the diverse student body is encouraged to develop
knowledge and skills. We place a great deal of emphasis on
collaboration with the industry and also have active partnerships with
national and international organisations. Our culture of internships,
placements, and the practical experience of our graduates as
designers in the industry and at design houses has been the hallmark of
our programs.
Our mission is to foster innovation by encouraging students to employ
innovative design thinking and creative problem-solving strategies to
create effective, sustainable, ethical, and responsible design solutions.

Student Testimonials

Mr. Arsalan Khalid Cheema

No matter where we are or what we are doing in life, we are always
developing applicable and imperative skills that can be utilized throughout our
lives. But I am still passionate about travelling and self-development, and that
is how I believe a business student should be. Therefore, to observe cultural
diversity, I opted to learn an Executive MBA from the University of Greenwich,
based in London's cultural capital.
Through my Executive MBA studies at the University of Greenwich, I hope to
gain the skills required to manage organizational structures and resources and
implement strategic decisions proficiently. I am obliged to the International
Relations Office, GIFT University, for helping me realize my career dreams!

Mr. Junaid Amjad

My journey from Gujranwala, Pakistan, to Birmingham, UK, would not have been
possible without GIFT University's management and faculty, who went the extra
mile to help me and provided me with a strong base for my career aspirations. The
teaching and training provided at GIFT University prepare the students for every
challenge in their future lives. Their new collaborations with global educational
institutions and their international relations with foreign universities from the UK,
USA, Turkey, and many others, have in real terms, opened new doors of future
possibilities for current and prospective students in Pakistan.
The efforts of GIFT University have immensely helped shape the lives of students
from rural and urban areas in and around Gujranwala and the province of Punjab.
I thank all my peers at the University's International Relations Office, who helped
me through all my queries and provided me with a step-by-step guide because of
which I am currently studying at Birmingham City University, UK.

Mr. Talha Haider

My interest in business and love for calculations influenced me to choose a
business school at GIFT University as they were offering a unique degree that
focuses on both areas of my interest, which helped me polish my skills and
abilities.
The University management helped me not only during my studies but also
after my graduation. The International relations office enabled me to achieve
my future goals as it was my dream to get a master's degree from a foreign
university, which became possible with the help and guidance provided by
them. I scored admission in one of the UK's best business schools, which has
been awarded the TEF Gold for their work and excellence. This opportunity
helped enhance my knowledge and learn things from an utterly diversified
culture, and have high exposure in business.

Ms. Shuneem Sarfraz

I joined GIFT University as it has the perfect combination of qualified faculty
and quality education that I needed to excel as a business professional. The
University has helped me in fine-tuning my skills. I had always wanted to
explore other cultures and houses of knowledge. The International Relations
Office (IRO) helped me in achieving this by allowing me to go to the United
Kingdom through its Third UK Tour. The office further extended its support by
helping me secure a place in an MPhil program in Global Business and Digital
Arts from one of the top Canadian institutes, the University of Waterloo.
With this opportunity, I will be able to enhance not only my education and let
me become business-oriented, but the culturally diverse and accepting country
of Canada will be an experience that will help me to overall become a better
member of society.

Mr. Zeeshan Ali
The International Relations Office (IRO) at GIFT University helped me realise my
potential as an inspiring business professional. As a leading student of
Accounting and Finance, I was able to secure a place on the Global UGRAD
Cultural Exchange Semester Scholarship. The fully-funded scholarship by the
Government of the United States allowed me to spend time in the country,
learning more about my field of interest.
During my time in the U.S., I learned more than just about accounting and
finance. I was exposed to the diverse range of cultures and communities that
make up the country. I thank the IRO at GIFT University for enabling me to
experience and gain knowledge, which helped me grow as a professional and
as a person.

Ms. Humna Javeid

My love for being on screen compelled me to join the Mass Communication

take another step in this direction by supporting my selection for the Global
UGRAD Program scholarship.
The cultural exchange semester scholarship is a fully funded program by the United

International Internships
With the aim of students' development at the international level, CIRO has designed a blended International
Internship program where students from GIFT University, in collaboration with the Student Development Centre
(SDC) and Corporate Relations Department (CRD), are engaged with the partner international universities for their
Social Work Internship, Corporate Internship, and Professional Development Program.
Corporate Internship:
A group of students from Business School did their international internship under the supervision of the Corporate
Relations Department (CRD) with the University of Dundee, UK, and St. Petersburg State Transport University,
Russia, in the summer of 2020.
A group of students visited Turkey in September 2021 for a corporate internship, explored the industry, top
practices, and trends, and linked with the top businesses for their export opportunities.
Technical Internship:
A group of Top 50 students from the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences did their internships with the
top-ranked universities, including Technical University Berlin, Germany, and Ural Federal University, Russia, in
summer 2020.
Another group from the same department was engaged with the University of Dundee, UK, and St. Petersburg
State Transport University, Russia, for their technical internship.
Social Work Internship:
A group of students visited Turkey in September 2021 for their Social Integration Program. The students were
engaged in social activities with the collaboration of the Yunus Emre Institute and learned the top practices of the
most empathetic nation and country.
Five students, in collaboration with the Student Development Centre (SDC), were engaged with JUST RESULTS for
the Youth Development Program. Students attended sessions, meetings and also shared their ideas for the
development of underprivileged areas. Working with USAID as a student ambassador in itself, provided a vast
opportunity to connect and introduce students to people around the globe. At GIFT, students will earn huge grants
for development purposes.
Semester Exchange Program
International Exchange Programs provide broad-based benefits to students where they get the opportunity to seek
international exposure and acquaint themselves with new cultures and global educational standards. Such
activities are an essential part of a student's overall development, giving them awareness and help adopt
alternative, multi-faceted approaches to learning with changing global economic conditions. International
exchange programs are becoming viable and effective prospects for learning and gaining international exposure.
GIFT University has concluded many agreements with different countries to provide a valuable study-abroad
experience. This is an excellent opportunity to improve your foreign language skills, develop yourself academically
and culturally and make international friends.
Under the semester exchange program, two of our bright students were successfully selected for the virtual
semester exchange program at Istanbul Aydin University, Turkey. These students are currently enrolled in spring
2021 and undergoing the course "Brand Management".

Converting Knowledge into Practical Experience

Mr. Talha Khalid, BBA (Hons)

My experience at Aydin University, Istanbul, has honestly been one of my best
experiences until now since I was able to meet many friends from different
backgrounds like Syria, Turkey, and the Philippines. I also gained much
knowledge, primarily through the case studies that were discussed in class. The
method of teaching is unique and helpful for us. I want to thank GIFT University
for giving me the opportunity to study abroad through an exchange program.
After this program, I am motivated to participate in other international activities in
the future as well.

Mr. Hafiz Usman Anwar, BBA (Hons)

I am honored to be one of the recipients of this prestigious Scholarship at Aydin
University, Istanbul. I am thankful to GIFT University for their generous support
and for providing me with this opportunity to study in an international culture
through the exchange program. This opportunity has every single facility a
student could dream of, a chance to increase awareness, skills, confidence, and
results for communicating effectively, accurately, and respectfully across cultures.
Studying in a country that differs significantly from my own country provided me
with all kinds of experiences. These experiences stimulate you to socialize with
others to create international linkages, make new friends and profitable
relationships, discover new methods and ways to do things, appreciate different
perspectives, be flexible, and determine what is relevant based on new insights. I
conclude my note by thanking GIFT University's International Office, as it was a
very nice experience that helped me learn new things, broaden my vision, and
reflect on the multiple important aspects of life by seeing international trends.

Office of Research, Innovation

and Commercialization (ORIC)

At GIFT, Office of Research, Innovation and Commercialization (ORIC) has been developed to facilitate the
faculty to achieve their R&D endeavors by providing them WITH a supportive environment. One of the main
challenges is to develop industrial linkages and provide them with the relevant support. Gujranwala division is a
region of entrepreneurs with lots of small and medium size industries contributing towards the national economy.
However, most of these industries are working in silos with hardly any collaboration with academia. With such a
large potential available and doing things indigenously, it may be good enough to stay as a small or medium size
industry. However, some basic changes in their infrastructure, management and quality output will enable them to
grow into a large scale business and make impact at the international level. For this purpose, the research and
development (R&D) infrastructure of the university can be used, which would help both the industry and the
university to grow. ORIC is committed to look forward to provide this support and create a win-win situation.
Entrepreneurship is already in the roots of this region; however, the office will further help develop and polish the
innovative skills of students through its Business Incubation Center (BIC). It will not just provide the seed funding but
also the required platform, environment and human expertise to train the students in developing and then maturing
their ideas into business opportunities.
Objectives
ORIC aims to accomplish the following objectives:
• Build R&D environment
• Create industrial linkages
• Seek funding opportunities
• Impart trainings
• Promote entrepreneurship
• Build Business Incubation Center (BIC)
• Research Commercialization

Center for Experiential Learning

(CEL)

The Center for Experiential Learning Center's (CEL) vision is to empower students to become impactful and socially
responsible leaders. The CEL achieves its vision by providing students with immersive experiences and resources
that equip students with practical skills, an entrepreneurial mindset, and a sense of social responsibility.
All the courses offered under the CEL are skill-based and focus on enhancing the student’s entrepreneurial acumen.
The practical approach of learning by doing enriches the students’ engagement and ability to see the world
through the lens of effectuation.
Further, CEL provides opportunities for students to reflect on their experiences and explore the ethical aspects of
their actions. This approach aligns with the university's goal of providing students with a well-rounded education
that facilitates them to convert knowledge into practical experience. This will transform the student’s perceptual field
which further allows them to connect with their authentic self (khudi).
Moreover, CEL has created a collaborative space for the GIFT stakeholders (students, staff, faculty, alumni, and
community) to share their knowledge, skills, and resources. This shared space will create a sense of responsibility
and accountability in the students towards society (looking beyond profit). This will lead to a more ethical way of
being in the professional world.

Course Offering in 2023

This semester, CEL is offering three skill-based courses that are highly relevant to the current industry landscape.
These courses equip students with relevant, practical, and valuable skills that will help them become financially
independent.
• Digital Marketing • Graphic Designing • Business on campus
Overall, these skill-based courses offered by CEL not only provide students with industry-relevant knowledge and
expertise but also empower them to excel in their chosen fields and make a meaningful impact in the professional
world.

throughout the year.

Industrial Linkages

GIFT Business School (GBS)

In Pakistan, universities and industry largely work in isolation. We strongly believe that our organizations and
economy can only compete effectively in global markets when our business education is aligned well with the
industry needs. The industry meet-ups bridge this gap by connecting our faculty and students with industry.

School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS)

GIFT University puts dedicated efforts to make their graduates compatible with the current market trends in relevant
industries as per their areas of expertise. A dedicated Department of Industrial Linkages at the School of
Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) develops and maintains cordial relations with respective industries like
Regional Tech Houses, Industry Representatives and the Business Chamber, for carrying out student developments
like on-campus recruitment drives, workshops, internships at both local and international levels as well as share
regional job leads and create awareness amongst its students about the latest industry trends.

School of Arts and Social Sciences (SASS)

Office of the Industry Linkages and Development, Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, GIFT University Gujranwala
was established in the last week of January 2021. The main object of establishing this office is to develop strong
relationship with the industry and society as well as to equip our students with industry knowledge and exposure,
preparing them for their careers ahead.

School of Fine Arts, Design and Architecture (SFADA)

Learning is not confined to the classrooms only, but ample industrial interaction in terms of seminars, workshops,
industrial trips, vigorous internships and exposure in national and international events, articulate students’ potential
and make them ready to respond to challenges effectively. Therefore, we believe that international collaborations
are necessary to support the exchange of ideas, innovation and creativity. Our faculty and students are striving to
promote and perform in the global art and design community through research, conferences, exhibitions, fashion
shows.

Mathematics
Introduction:
Mathematics is the science that deals with the logic of shape, quantity and arrangement. Math is all around us, in
everything we do. It is the building block for everything in our daily lives, including mobile devices, architecture
(ancient and modern), art, money, engineering, and even sports.
People often wonder what relevance mathematicians serve today. In a modern world, math, such as applied
mathematics, is not only relevant, it is crucial. Applied mathematics is a branch of mathematics that is involved in
the study of the physical, biological, or sociological world. The idea of applied math is to create a group of
methods that solve problems in science. Modern areas of applied math include mathematical physics,
mathematical biology, control theory, aerospace engineering, and mathematical finance. Applied math not only
solves problems, but it also discovers new problems or develops new engineering disciplines. Applied
mathematicians require expertise in many areas of math, science, physical intuition, common sense and
collaboration. The common approach in applied math is to build a mathematical model of a phenomenon, solve
the model and develop recommendations for performance improvement.
Mathematics is both an art and a science- and pure mathematics lies at its heart. Pure mathematics explores the
boundary of mathematics and pure reason. It has been described as "that part of mathematical activity that is done
without explicit or immediate consideration of the direct application," although what is "pure" in one era often
becomes applied later. Finance and cryptography are current examples of areas to which pure mathematics is
applied in significant ways. Pure mathematics is driven by abstract problems and used to design a mathematical
model of real-world problems. Much of what is pursued by pure mathematicians can have their roots in concrete
physical problems, but a deeper understanding of these phenomena brings about problems and technicalities.
These abstract problems and technicalities are what pure mathematics attempts to solve and these attempts have
led to major discoveries for mankind, including the Universal Turing Machine.
Computational mathematics involves mathematical research in areas of science, where computing plays a central
and essential role, emphasizing algorithms, numerical methods and symbolic methods.
