In spite of a degree of industrialization achieved ever since, agriculture remains central to its economy. It is, therefore, axiomatic that all approaches to economic activity and social advancement be designed with agriculture as the centerpiece of our development policy initiatives and evolving progress and prosperity, in consequence. Like most developing countries, Pakistani society has been bound to tradition – a poor elixir for progress and wellbeing of the people hardly an effective recipe to win our spurs and stand on our own feet and be counted. The whole crux of future development should be to trigger a change – in attitudes, behavior and values of life. To accelerate the break with tradition, therefore, it required a well–conceived action plan to update and upgrade agricultural education and research in the country. The first major institution of higher learning in agriculture created was the Punjab Agricultural College and Research Institute in 1909. It had served for major part of the century as its premier seat of learning and training in tropical agriculture, helped through creation and transmission of appropriate knowledge, to promote agrarian development in the country. Of course, this was a beginning to project a great movement forward to embrace a new way of life. After independence the Government of Pakistan appointed National Commissions on Food and Education with the terms of reference to review, in all its ramifications, the prevailing agrarian system and to formulate measures for developing the full potential of our agricultural resources. The Commissions made a strong case for establishing an Agricultural University, which could play a more vigorous role in promoting research and education in Agriculture. Pursuant to these recommendations, the University of Agriculture was established by upgrading the former Punjab Agricultural College and Research Institute in the year 1961–62. The University is organized into faculties/Institutes/Directorates of :- Page | 2 1 Agriculture 2 Social Sciences 3 Agricultural Engineering and Technology 4 Animal Husbandry 5 Veterinary Science 6 Sciences 7 Food Nutrition & Home Sciences 8 Agricultural & Resource Economics 9 Horticultural Sciences 10 Soil & Environmental Sciences 11 Animal and Dairy Sciences 12 Home Sciences 13 Agricultural Extension and Rural Development 14 Business Management Sciences 15 National Institute of Food Science & Technology 16 Microbiology 17 Pharmacy 18 Punjab Bioenergy 19 Centre for Biochemistry and Biotechnology(CABB) 20 Water Management Research Center All located at the main Campus Faisalabad, Sub-Campus Toba Tek Singh, Sub-Campus Burewala-Vehari and Sub-Campus Depalpur-Okara.
