[email protected] Hafiz Muhammad Iqbal Dean, Faculty of Education, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. [email protected] Abstract At present a number of initiatives are being taken from various bodies for bringing qualitative reform in teacher education in Pakistan. To make these measures more focused and cost effective, there is a dire need to identify the significant areas/aspects of quality improvement. This paper presents the findings of the study which was focused on identifying the quality indicators in teacher education programmes and ranking them in the light of perceptions of teacher educators working at public university of Pakistan. It was found that faculty of teacher education institutions (TEIs) considered 17 indicators most important, 12 indicators moderately important and one indicator little important. ‘Teachers’ professional development’ received top most rating whereas ‘publication of self assessment reports’ was the bottom ranked indicator. This study is significant in the sense that it generated primary data about quality assurance in teacher education in Pakistan. The findings of this study have implications for HEC, Accreditation Council for Teacher Education and TEIs’ management for highlighting the important aspects which may be focused for quality improvement in teacher education programmes. For assessing quality of academic programmes using the suggested quality indicators, it is recommended that standards in the form of statements may be formulated for each indicator.

The main objective of this study is to find out the role of universities in transforming the students as true professionals. The research is conducted on one university of Lahore, Pakistan. It includes the analysis of data of students collected at their entry and exit level. The gap analysis between the two clearly defines the role of university in transforming the students. Keywords: Universities, Transform, Students Introduction The typical role of education is to shift the knowledge of one generation, usually the formal, to the other, usually the next (A W Astin, 1977; Schultz, 1971). The educational institutes facilitate and formalize this role (Lambooy, 2004). The institutes of higher education have an additional role, as discussed by De Weert (1999), of equipping the students with knowledge of their being (Gibbons, 1998), of their self (Alexander W Astin, 1977), of their environment (Gumport, 2002), of the society they are living in (Jarvis, 2001), of the expectations of their parents (Weinstein & Weinstein, 2002), or in more comprehensive vocabulary, the meaning of life, in addition to the shifting of the knowledge of their yester generation.
