Last year we found two positive cases of hepatitis which were later informed to get a complete check-up by relevant doctors.

The students and the faculty members sometimes do not pay attention to the changes taking place in the environment that might harm their health. Along with a good backup procedure the blood donor society tries its best to screen any possible disease which can be screened without lab requirement.

Our Future plan is to engage the faculty of sciences students to establish a lab that will help to preserve blood which would be handy in case of emergency. We have also been contacted by various foundations which have requested us to join hands with them for the welfare of humanity.

The visual beauty of Kashmir is delicately poised between its land, its people and its history. It is revered by all and sundry. The art and architecture of the Valley has evolved over centuries in consonance with this nuance and has earned the Valley the title of ‘Heaven on Earth’ from none other than the Mughal Emperor Jahangir. The landform, geology, flora and fauna, the social and cultural values and temporal aspiration of people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir call for development and intervention in a planned manner. Architecture and Town Planning professions are tools to achieve this orderly development in the domain of physical environment from individual living spaces, public realms, social infrastructure, entertainment and recreation, tourism and hospitality industry, transportation systems, communication etc.

It is with this pre-amble that Department of Architecture and Town Planning at the University of Kotli addresses the concerns of environmental degradation, ecological destruction, waste of valuable human and natural resources, socio-economic and socio-cultural aspirations of the people of the Valley and to conserve, preserve and protect its physical environment.

The architecture programs attempts to develop indigenous human resource with diversified regional perspective with sense of sustainable progress. The program aims to focus on local needs of unique mountainous aspects of architecture, urban design, landscape and town planning. Special courses are included in order to document and archive architecture of Kashmir with its unique characteristics and details for conservation, preservation and for reference and rejuvenation.

All this is provided for in a holistic and coordinated fashion ensuring balance between tradition and modernity and infusing social responsibility in graduate architects. University of Kotli Azad Jammu and Kashmir's graduates are trained to be caretakers and custodians of these values.

Architecture program at UoK deals with issues of environment with emphasis on seeking architectural design solutions through study of history and theory of profession, technological and material aspects, social, cultural and economic sustainability, respect for local customs and law keeping in view the needs and aspirations of future generations. All this is achieved under the guidance of experienced and highly qualified faculty well supported by trained staff and appropriately furnished labs and academic facilities.

Faculty of Computing & Engineering 149 University of Kotli Azad Jammu and Kashmir

Mission Statement One of the stated missions of our department is to become the leading school of architecture in the region, producing architects who are well-informed in programming, designing and project management as well as application of newer technologies and systems in the field of architecture. In order to sustain our premier status, it is also part of our goal to ensure that our program is regularly and dynamically reviewed periodically to take into consideration developments in the field of architectural pedagogy, technologies and the market demands.

Aims and Objectives

Our five-year B.Arch. Degree course at the Department of Architecture and Town Planning aims at producing professionals who will assume major leadership role in shaping the built environment and meet challenges posed by the cotemporary development to fulfil the needs of the present day world and the time to come.

The five-year degree course is a three-level program, spread over ten semesters: Formative level (semesters 1-4), Consolidation level (semesters 4-8) and Stimulating level (semesters 9-10), each level having specific objectives as following:

1. Objective at the Formative level (semesters 1-4) is to develop oral, written, visual, and graphic presentation skills and technical knowledge necessary for perception and expression of ideas in architectural design. The focus is to train students with an ability to synthesize and communicate (express) various socio-cultural functions into a cohesive architectural design along with working details. 2. Objective at the Consolidation level (semesters 4-8) is to inculcate an in-depth perception of architecture as an activity in time and space, and develop ability to design functions with an awareness of contextual issues involved with various facets of architecture. 3. Finally, the most stimulating level of the study is the culminating year (semesters 9-10) where students test their comprehension of learning through developing a self selected, self researched and designed project to get prepared for challenges of the professional life.

INTRODUCTION

Mathematics embodies the spirit of the liberal arts: mathematics is an art, a pure science, a language and an analytical tool for the natural and social sciences, a means of exploring philosophical questions, and a beautiful edifice that is a tribute to human creativity. The Department of Mathematics will offer its programs in BS, MSc and MS at University of Kotli Azad Jammu and Kashmir.

Mission Statement The Department of Mathematics aims to produce quality graduates and nurture them to learn and apply advanced knowledge and skills in all areas of pure and applied mathematics to solve problems in society, industry, and other related fields of human endeavour for the betterment of human life to achieve true potential of humanity with team work, enthusiasm, respect and integrity. BS Mathematics The BS program aims to establish the base for lifelong learning by creating essential concepts and equipping the student with necessary techniques, needed to start a career of research, development, teaching or applications involving mathematics. The equations of mathematics are made to speak through physics, which is the formulation of general laws applying, mainly, inductive logic. Engineering is modelling from the general laws to create practical systems. Technology is the implementation and the adaptation of a laboratory model to create a working system, which could be mass-produced. The journey from mathematics to technology could be considered as a journey from the abstract to the concrete, mathematics being in books, in the minds of philosophers, physics making contact with outside world, technology becoming the stage, where one enjoys the blessings. In other disciplines, like, economics, life sciences, a similar route is followed to transform the abstract formulae and equations developed by a pure mathematician to live and vibrant applications in everyday world. The training of mathematicians should inculcate creative thinking and make them capable of critically analyzing a problem, taking them from various stages of concept building to equip them with problem- solving skills. Problem solving in the classroom should prepare them to problem solving in the laboratories, and, eventually, problem solving in the industry and everyday life.

Physics is the study of laws of nature in fundamental way and manipulating them for the betterment of human life. It covers all natural phenomena including the universe staring form the big-bang to the present day and even about its future. It involves the range from the tiniest (neutrinos) to the largest (Galaxies) even whole universe and beyond. Physics is the core for all physical sciences; it generates fundamental knowledge needed for the future technological advancements and is important element in the education of chemists, engineers, doctors, computer scientists, as well as practitioners of the other physical and biomedical sciences. In Pakistan, being a nuclear state, research is having a prime focus. ln all higher educational institutions research is an integral part of graduate and postgraduate education. Our programmes encourage and promote the research activities in the university in order to meet the challenges of modern day world. The department provides special environment for the intellectual growth and rational thinking of the students.

Our passion is ideas. For over 5 years, our students and staff have been thinking, writing, and arguing about ideas and their consequences.

The Students come to University with many different ambitions. Our fundamental objective is to help you think more clearly, rigorously and expansively than you ever have before.

I am highly motivated to bring change in the faculty through diverse, challenging programs of study, with countless opportunities for research, creative work, internships, and other co-curricular activities, our students develop skills and knowledge that prepare them for a variety of careers and a lifetime of thoughtful citizenship and leadership in a complex world.

INTRODUCTION

The Department of Mass Communication has been established recently in a meeting by the Dean Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities. It offers both M.Sc. and BS (Hons.) programmes in Mass Communication. We intend to have a set of inquisitive and enterprising students who are eager to learn, and to put to the best use, the skills acquired here in their professional careers as mass media practitioners. There is a professional, dynamic curriculum ready for them to support their ambitions. We are determined to nurture and produce graduates who would contribute to national growth through creative, innovative and professional use of the mass media. The spectacular growth of mass media in Pakistan requires a continuing stream of professionals equipped with professional skills both in the print, electronic and the 'new' media of on-line journalism. Our effort in the Department of Mass Communication at UoK is to prepare the professional men and women for these fields to meet the challenges of what has often been described as the new information society. Apart from giving necessary academic background, including opportunities for carrying out new researches, our effort is to imbue our students with expertise necessary to come up to the professional challenges of an ever- changing media landscape. The courses offered have both the academic and practical contents, and we continue to revise them in the light of latest developments in various professional fields. A Media Lab would be established in the department soon after the commencement of classes. It would provide training in the field in television and documentary production. The students will be taught about practical aspects of pre-production, production and post-production (editing) of documentaries and dramas. A Computer lab/Online media Lab will equip the students with skills in graphics, digital advertising and online media. It will help students to learn and enhance their skills in online research and writing for social media. Objectives 1. To prepare students equipped with most modern knowledge for careers in print media, electronic media, online journalism advertising, public relations, mass media research and other sectors relating to media.
