IBA Annual Report 2012-2013 Annual Report LEGACY 2012-2013 OF EXCELLENCE Message from the Dean and Director The year 2012-13 was marked by the complete renovation of many existing buildings and facilities, and construction of few new ones. This enabled us to add more classrooms, seminar rooms, breakout rooms, faculty offices and hostel rooms for boys and girls. The availability of expanded physical infrastructure along with Information and Communication Technology solutions have made both a qualitative and quantitative difference to the learning environment at IBA. Qualitatively, we were able to attract as many as 17 new faculty members, most of them with advanced degrees in their respective fields and 32 visiting faculty members, leading practitioners in their sectors. It was also a pleasure to see a net addition of almost 400 students to different degree programs - the largest increase (approximately 20 percent) in any single year. Hopefully, as the new infrastructure becomes fully functional and faculty strength is augmented, this trend of increased access to quality education at IBA is likely to persist. IBA is striving to become a Centre of Excellence not only for Business and Computer Sciences but also for Economics, Social Sciences, Liberal Arts, Mathematics, Accounting and Finance. We are also happy to note that with the completion of New Boys Hostel, the number of students from outside Karachi has also almost doubled. As a national institution it is our obligation to have diversity among our student body. I hope the readers will find this Annual Report useful in keeping up with the latest changes that are taking place at IBA. I am very grateful to all our supporters, friends, donors, the Board and its Committee members, and the IBA community at large without their active assistance we wouldn’t have been able to accomplish much. Ishrat Husain Dean and Director VISION To become a world-class business school for leadership and innovation in management.
