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. The readers are cordially invited to send their comments and views.

  • Paper on Cyber Law Presented at the 50Th Anniversary Celebrations of the Supreme Court of Pakistan International Judicial Conference 11-14 August, 2006
    Paper on Cyber Law Presented at the 50th Anniversary Celebrations of the Supreme Court of Pakistan International Judicial Conference 11-14 August, 2006 Introduction Only a few years after the explosive advent of the internet on the global scene, Pakistan also became a part of what has become a truly global village. Every community ranging from students, academicians, businesses, the military, government to even the legal and judicial communities are now inextricably connected, networked and dependent on Cyberspace and the Internet. Cyberspace is a term that was coined by William Gibson in his 1984 novel "Neuromancer" and is now used to describe the entire spectrum of computer networks and associated activities that take place over computers and their interconnected networks which in their largest manifestation form the internet. This ‘virtual space’ has no national or jurisdictional boundaries since its ether resides in and interacts with the network of hundreds of thousands if not millions of computers and users at the same time. A legal problem The interconnectivity and the irrelevance of geographical borders can be demonstrated where a person sitting in Karachi may be using an email service in the US from which to agree to the purchase of property in Spain that is owned by a UK business which hosts its website in Ireland. It may be that any one or all of these elements, persons, computers or actions are not in any one geographical location and they may exist or take place in multiple locations at the same time with no discernible priority. Lawrence Lessing identifies this as a problem for the traditional legal rules resulting from the unique nature of the internet and Cyberspace in “The Law of Cyberspace”: "The problem for law is to work out how the norms of the two communities are to apply given that the subject to whom they apply may be in both places at once" Traditionally, the rules of Conflict of Laws and rules for jurisdiction have been used to regulate the cross-border interaction between parties.

  • High-Level Nuclear Wastes and the Environment: Analyses of Challenges and Engineering Strategies
    World Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 2012, 2, 89-105 http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/wjnst.2012.23015 Published Online July 2012 (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/wjnst) High-Level Nuclear Wastes and the Environment: Analyses of Challenges and Engineering Strategies Mukhtar Ahmed Rana Physics Division, Directorate of Science, PINSTECH, Islamabad, Pakistan Email: [email protected], [email protected] Received February 11, 2012; revised April 2, 2012; accepted April 19, 2012 ABSTRACT The main objective of this paper is to analyze the current status of high-level nuclear waste disposal along with presen- tation of practical perspectives about the environmental issues involved. Present disposal designs and concepts are ana- lyzed on a scientific basis and modifications to existing designs are proposed from the perspective of environmental safety. A new concept of a chemical heat sink is introduced for the removal of heat emitted due to radioactive decay in the spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste, and thermal spikes produced by radiation in containment materi- als. Mainly, UO2 and metallic U are used as fuels in nuclear reactors. Spent nuclear fuel contains fission products and transuranium elements which would remain radioactive for 104 to 108 years. Essential concepts and engineering strate- gies for spent nuclear fuel disposal are described. Conceptual designs are described and discussed considering the long-term radiation and thermal activity of spent nuclear fuel. Notions of physical and chemical barriers to contain nu- clear waste are highlighted. A timeframe for nuclear waste disposal is proposed and time-line nuclear waste disposal plan or policy is described and discussed.

    Defining Shariʿa The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review By Shoaib A. Ghias A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Jurisprudence and Social Policy in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Malcolm M. Feeley, Chair Professor Martin M. Shapiro Professor Asad Q. Ahmed Summer 2015 Defining Shariʿa The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review © 2015 By Shoaib A. Ghias Abstract Defining Shariʿa: The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review by Shoaib A. Ghias Doctor of Philosophy in Jurisprudence and Social Policy University of California, Berkeley Professor Malcolm M. Feeley, Chair Since the Islamic resurgence of the 1970s, many Muslim postcolonial countries have established and empowered constitutional courts to declare laws conflicting with shariʿa as unconstitutional. The central question explored in this dissertation is whether and to what extent constitutional doctrine developed in shariʿa review is contingent on the ruling regime or represents lasting trends in interpretations of shariʿa. Using the case of Pakistan, this dissertation contends that the long-term discursive trends in shariʿa are determined in the religio-political space and only reflected in state law through the interaction of shariʿa politics, regime politics, and judicial politics. The research is based on materials gathered during fieldwork in Pakistan and datasets of Federal Shariat Court and Supreme Court cases and judges. In particular, the dissertation offers a political-institutional framework to study shariʿa review in a British postcolonial court system through exploring the role of professional and scholar judges, the discretion of the chief justice, the system of judicial appointments and tenure, and the political structure of appeal that combine to make courts agents of the political regime.

  • Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Annual Repo R T 2 0 1 6 - 1 7 Sustaining Quality
    Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Annual Repo r t 2 0 1 6 - 1 7 Sustaining Quality Annual Report 2016-17 Message from the Dean and Director The Institute has long had a reputation for delivering quality education. What does this rest on? For many, this rests on having admissions characterized by selectivity, teaching by discipline and examinations by integrity. These are critical aspects of quality and they stand out in a higher education environment where numerous examples can be given of the opposite. For many, the Institute’s reputation also rests on the success achieved by its graduates in their professional careers. An impressive proportion of leadership positions in Pakistan’s corporate sector is accounted for by graduates of the Institute, decade after decade. Some graduates have also achieved professional distinction in overseas jobs. Where do we stand today? I have the pleasure to report that several objective measures show that we continue to do well in terms of quality. For many years now, we have been strengthening the quality of our faculty. In FY13, we had 81 fulltime faculty of whom 34 had PhD qualifications. In FY17 we had 118 fulltime faculty of whom 65 had PhD qualifications. We have almost doubled the number of highly qualified faculty in five years. Research is internationally considered a mark of quality. The research orientation of our faculty has been rising over time. In calendar 2016, our faculty published 89 papers in journals and conference proceedings. What is more impressive is that 21 of these publications were in high-quality peer-reviewed international journals distinguished by a high rate of citation and, therefore, impact.
