It is a great honor and privilege for me to be the Vice Chancellor of the first ever public sector University in the erstwhile FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas). The establishment of a higher education institution in the erstwhile FATA has been a long-standing demand of the people of this region. The establishment of the FATA University in 2016 is an important milestone in the educational landscape of the region. FATA University is Located in one of the most historically significant and culturally rich area of Pakistan. The University epitomizes the nation's commitment to promoting education and development in the erstwhile FATA. The University offers a wide range of academic programs in various disciplines to provide a comprehensive education that meets both national and regional needs. By promoting research, innovation and critical thinking, FATA University contributes not only to individual intellectual growth but also to the socio-economic development of the region. Currently, FATA University offers BS programs in 15 disciplines. However, after moving to our newly constructed campus, we will be introducing three more disciplines in the near future.
About Vice ChancellorA library can be considered a store – house of knowledge. In dictionaries the word “library†has been defined as “a building or room containing a collection of booksâ€. A library renders a great service to the society.
A library plays a very important role in promoting the progress of knowledge. There are many people who love reading. But they can’t afford to buy books because the prices of books are very high. So when one becomes a member of a library, he can borrow valuable books. A member can borrow two books at a time and he can keep it with him for two weeks. Libraries are particularly useful for poor children. Even those who are better off can’t afford to buy all the books they require for their studies. For instance, invaluable books like Encyclopedias and large dictionaries cannot be purchased.
