University of Central Punjab Faculty of Engineering
Faculty of Faculty of Engineering comprises of three

departments Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering
and Mechanical Engineering. The main objective
Engineering
of the Faculty of Engineering is to produce highly
efficient engineers by providing best possible
academic training in a conducive environment.
The Faculty has developed its infrastructure
in accordance with the guidelines of Pakistan
Engineering Council (PEC). The students experience
regularly the upgraded laboratories, well-stocked
libraries, classrooms with modern teaching aids
to introduce them to the most recent analytical
techniques and technological developments in their
respective fields. Students have ample opportunities
to associate themselves with highly qualified
faculty, which is actively engaged in a number of
professional activities.
Prof. Dr. Muhammad Akram Tahir Outcome Based Education & Assessment system
Dean (OBE & OBA) is being implemented to prepare the
graduates to meet the international standards.
The curriculum of all three departments has been
developed based on the guidelines issued by HEC.
