We always wanted to create a difference in people’s lives through our passionate contributions. Our students are a valuable human capital of Pakistan and we dreamt of making students Superior by inculcating in them sense of purpose, innovation and creativity, teamwork, excellence, and rewards for performance. These values give our students true essence of life, success and immortality. I have always believed in Allah’s oneness and his messages have always inspired me. “Man gets whatever he strives for” has been my guiding force. My real hero, my dad taught me to live life of a lion and I followed his footsteps. My all initiatives are reflected through my dauntless actions. From Superior College to the Superior group, from Management Sciences to IT, from Allied Health Sciences to Law, from Economics to Engineering, Pharmacy to Mass Communication and Aviation to MBBS, this journey has been transforming impossibilities into possibilities.

7 8 1 2 Discover your superior attributes IQ & EQ

IQ is the ability to learn, understand, and apply information and skills in a meaningful way. Whereas, EQ can be defined as a potential to recognize and manage emotions personally and interpersonally. IQ is the academic intellect contributing 20% to your success while it is your EQ which is 80% responsible for your success in life. With an enduring dedication in pursuit of excellence, Superior University is not only producing the best intellect but also making its students emotionally intelligent, so they can make the most powerful and positive differences in the world.

In a very real sense we have two minds, one that thinks (IQ) and one that feels (EQ)

09 10 3 4 How superior changes your life! Plan-IQ

The conventional institutes focus on the knowledge and comprehension part of studies; however, Superior breaks this orthodox and comes up with the novel learning solution entitled ‘competency based framework’ that contributes to your IQ. Core Competencies are those abilities, qualities and skills inculcated in the students during their time with the institution. Plan IQ covers three essential dimensions i.e. skill based curriculum, role of teachers as facilitators, and in-house practicing labs

5 6 Skill Based Curriculum The skill based curriculum has been designed with the collaboration of professionals to address corporate academia gap. The learning by doing approach has been focused to instill required skill set in our students. The key objective to teach ‘Management’ courses is to make our students able to apply planning, organizing, leading and controlling skills through organizing mega events such as Jamboree and others. Likewise, the entrepreneurship course facilitates our students to develop entrepreneurial mind set and to come up Role of Teachers as Facilitators with their very own business plans. Further, technopreneurship helps our students to innovate their ideas Here in Superior University Case Studies in the field of IT. seasoned faculty members act as If you wait until there is another case study in your industry you will be too late. If we want to learn about an organization and its real time practices, we need to be in it to win it.

7 8 In House Practicing Labs and Studios In-house practicing labs and studios encourage our students to have practical insight of the knowledge and skills which they have learned during their graduate program. Superior’s presence in Print and Electronic media -‘Daily Nai Baat’, ‘Neo Tv’ and FM 106.6 – facilitates the students to exhibit their learnings in the field of mass communication. Medical Students are blessed to have their own Chaudhry Muhammad Akram Teaching and Research Hospital. Students of Pharm D get the opportunity to have hands-on practice in The Superior wellness pharmaceutical company. Similarly, IT students can do internships in software house (Superior Solutions) and IT Infrastructure Company (Superior connection). Even students of management sciences have incubator centers (Azra Naheed Center for Research and Development, Ch. Muhammad Akram Center for Entrepreneurship) within the premises of the university to practice their skill set. The engineering students experience the real time learning environment in all our labs and well equipped, lit and airy studios have been dedicated to the students of architecture department where the journey from a point to a line and then to the project is materialized.
