  • IBA AR 2013-14 Final Lowres
    Annual Report 2013-2014 TRANSLATING VISION INTO REALITYREALITY Message from the Dean and Director Vision The year 2013-14 is the penultimate reporting year of the Strategic Plan 2009-14. It is a matter of great satisfaction “To become a world-class business school for leadership that most of the targets that were committed at the time of the Strategy formulation have been achieved. Progress in and innovation in management.” Physical Infrastructure projects, Technology Up-gradation, Quality Enhancement, New Program Development, Community Outreach, Governance and Management has been quite substantial. Although the number of full time faculty has risen to 98 and the number of PhD holders has increased to 45, we are still facing shortages in core subjects of Management, Marketing Finance and Accounting. Some innovative initiatives such as split doctorate degree programs with South Hampton in UK and Grenoble in France have proved helpful in filling this gap. It would take a few more years before the benefits of these initiatives are derived. Research culture has been promoted in what was purely a teaching institution but we have a long way to go before we attain our desired goals. The physical capacity expansion, renovation, and remodeling, have allowed to accommodate almost 3000 students – a jump of almost 667 from the base year 2008-09. This increase in student strength has also helped in contributing towards the financial sustainability of the Institute. Almost two-thirds of the operational expenses are now met from the internally generated income reducing the dependence on external sources. The publication of the Annual Report regularly is a modest attempt by IBA to hold itself accountable to the stakeholders and the public at large.

  • IBA Karachi AR 2015-16 Final
    BUILDING ON ANNUAL REPORT SUCCESS 2015-16 BUILDING ON SUCCESS Message from the Dean and Director I would like to take the opportunity of the publication of this Annual Report to talk about three transformations at IBA. The first is physical transformation. We now have buildings and technology that did not exist a few years ago. They provide a range of educational, recreational and service facilities that has vastly improved the learning and living experience of the students and faculty who pass through our gates. While we will continue to make improvements, the bulk of the infrastructure development campaign has been completed. IBA owes a significant debt to Dr. Ishrat Husain, my immediate predecessor, for having conceived and executed this campaign. The second is intellectual transformation. This is less obvious than the physical one but just as pervasive. It is reflected in a surge in faculty hiring and the initiation of new courses. Our faculty is at the forefront of a sustained drive to deliver quality education to our students. Towards this end, we have set the bar for the induction of new faculty higher and higher every year. Today we have 62 faculty with Ph.D. degrees. This is up from 20 Ph.D. holding faculty members in 2009. And we have more in the pipeline. Currently more than 24 faculty members are at different stages in their doctoral studies. Good faculty add value to our students, value that is recognised when they enter the job market and when they take up positions of leadership in the corporate world and beyond.
