Nature gives us many interesting lessons to draw upon. It helps illustrate parables of what happens in our lives. Look at a cygnet when it is born. It is vulnerable, but there is something about it that shows inherent resilience and for-titude. That cygnet is destined to be a Swan when it grows up, one of the most majestic & stately aquatic birds in nature.

Only a few years ago, the Institute of Manage-ment Sciences (IMSciences) was a fledgling or-ganization, but its potential and inherent char-acter was evident to most. Today it is well on its way to becoming a national institution.

The continuous accolades the institution has been receiving is a result of the collective vi-sion of one of most talented bodies of young academics in the country. The constant in-crease in the enrollment of students at IM-Sciences over the past few years is itself a testament of IMSciences’ unhindered progress and expansion.

Our high standards help us to pick the best students across the country, and our qualified and committed faculty members become not only academic mentors to them, but often per-sonal ones too.

IMSciences is committed to redress social in-equity, which is why we have an ambitious pro-gramme to help students who have the ability but not the resources to be able to get a world class education. We do this in collaboration with USAID, FEF, the Japanese Government, Khushhali Bank and from our own resources in the form of generous scholarships.

The Institute has progressively increased its academic collaboration/linkages with British Universities. Students are now transferring their credit hours from IMSciences to its U.K. partners in different fields. This makes our de-gree at par with UK qualifications in these in-stances.

The upgrading of our digital library and the provision of the Pakistan Education and Re-search Network (PERN) connectivity by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) is yet an-other milestone in the Institute’s journey to-wards achieving its objectives.

I am grateful for your interest in IMSciences and wish you well in the admission process.

Overview of IMSciences

Introduction

The Institute of Management Sciences (IM-Sciences) is the foremost management school of the NWFP, and increasingly its recognition has been extending beyond the Frontier.As a public sector Institute it is markedly differ-ent from others because it is fully autonomous and self governing. This enables it to respond quickly to all new developments in the world of academia and meet the requirements of em-ployers.IMSciences operates with a view to foster growth in students’ know how and professional skills and enable them to remain competitive in a tight labour market. We have been success-ful in achieving this, and over time we have ex-panded our functions.Today IMSciences offers degree programmes for business administration, management, in-formation technology and public health. These are all similarly tied knowledge bases that help create synergy and foster the cross fertiliza-tion of knowledge.The current position of the IMSciences as a forerunner in education provision has come about as a unique case of self sustained devel-opment. This was made possible by a dedicat-ed staff that had the creativity to grow beyond the narrow confines of state provided educa-tion.Most of the universities in Pakistan have been in stasis for decades now, but the IMSciences has been one of the few examples of success-ful growth in academia, one that has become a benchmark of quality for others.

The Institute of Management Sciences owes its reputation in part to the structure it is en-dowed with. It is a government body of higher education that grew out of the University of Pe-shawar, but is free of many of the bottlenecks that are sometimes associated with traditional governance structures.

The simplest analogy to understand what an autonomous status is by comparing IMScienc-es to the Institute of Business Administration (IBA), Karachi. Both are autonomous and Gov-ernment of Pakistan entities. Both institutes’ growth outpaced that of the universities they were initially associated with. Like IBA, IM-Sciences also awards its own degree under the aegis of the HEC of Pakistan.

The IMSciences is recognized by the govern-ment as a seat of excellence, and to facilitate its further expansion and excellence in Infor-mation Technology, Business Administration, Public Health and all allied disciplines, a Board of Governors was placed as a policy making body.

The Board of Governors is composed of emi-nent educationists, industrialists, prominent corporate executives, and representatives of the Provincial & Federal Government. It is a dynamic body with the ability of input in the running of the institute’s many different, and essential perspectives.

Status of IMSciences

As a public sector institution, the Board of Gov-ernors also provides a crucial link between the IMSciences and the business world.

Chronology of Autonomy1999: The Government of the NWFP declared the Institute autonomous notification No. SO (UE) 1-47/98 on the 12-6-1999 as the Institute of Management Sciences.

2002: The Status as a Statutory en-tity was granted through the prom-ulgation of the Institute of Manage-ment Sciences Ordinance 2002 by the Governor of the NWFP on Oc-tober 2, 2002 through No. LEGIS: 1 (12)/98/7278 by the Law Depart-ment, Government of NWFP.

2005: The IMSciences Board of Gov-ernors in its seventh meeting on the 10th of May 2005 allowed IMScienc-es to issue its own degrees to fuel academic growth and determine its own strategic priorities.

Philosophy of IMSciences

achieving academic growth and contribute to the economic regeneration and prosperity of NWFP in particular and the country in general. Our close association with the HEC, foreign and local donors/NGOs and philanthropists will provide a strong impetus to our programmes of studies at all levels.

The Institute has emerged as a leading busi-ness school for maintaining the highest aca-demic standards and discipline. Our rigorous selection criterion is based purely on merit and transparent processes. The Institute has a highly qualified faculty that operates under an excellent academic environment, with un-interrupted schedules; strictly followed by the students and faculty. Our systems of class-room instruction is highly participative in all respects. The examination system is based on continuous evaluation of students that enables students to work throughout the study period specified in the programmes.

IMSciences operates in a manner that com-bines the best of the public spirit of a state university, while working internally in a manner that reflects the best of market enterprise.

What does this mean?

It means that IMSciences is not shortsighted with profit oriented goals but it means that it invests in research because its job is the cre-ation of a relevant body of ideas (irrespective of its marketability), it means that its duty is a long standing commitment towards the growth of its students and it means that it must put all its resources towards this end.

It also means that IMSciences takes care to avoid some of the bottlenecks found in gov-ernment departments and operates with the efficiency of market enterprise. This results in teaching and research that is done with com-mitment, this means that our graduates are taught in a manner with relevant courses that maximizes their professional skills and exper-tise.

Our overarching aim is to build IMSciences into, not just a seat of teaching excellence, a powerhouse of knowledge creation and re-search development.

Its achievements in learning, teaching, re-search, placement, its focus on the develop-ment of foreign links extending the frontiers of IMSciences into public private partnerships and the establishment of centres of excellence in the Institute will help create conditions for

MPH Programme for AfghanistanInstitute of Management Sciences, Peshawar and IbnSina (Funded by the Rockefeller Foun-dation), Afghanistan have started a Masters in Public Health Programme at the Institute of Public Health (IPH) in Kabul. The Programme is attended by Health Professionals in Kabul. This will be a benefit for the Afghan nation and im-prove the Health infrastructure in the country. Highly Qualified Professors from IMSciences conduct an MPH course in Afghanistan, using IMSciences curriculum adapted to the specific needs of the Afghan students.

IMSciences Partnered ScholarshipsOver the past years IMSciences has funded a significant number of students who were fac-ing financial constraints and were unable to continue their education. The following schol-arships schemes are available in IMSciences, which are granted to IMSciences Scholars on need and merit basis.

IMSciences Centres for Excellence in Informa-tion Technology and Business in coordination with HEC has stepped in the community of leading institutions with long and respected research tradition. One of the most recent achievements is its linkage programme. As the Institute is committed to sustaining a close re-lationship with industry, it offers a number of opportunities for cooperation and growth.

Our focus on the purpose of linkages/collabo-rations has expanded. Previously our interna-tional linkages aimed at knowledge synthesis and at collaboration between academics. Now we have shifted to include our students as di-rect beneficiaries of this process. Currently we aim at getting our courses accredited in so that the courses of IMSciences are accepted at face value rather than resorting to third party standardized testing. In this connection MoUs have been signed with the Southampton University UK, University of Hull UK, University of Glasgow and Coventry University UK.

Split Degree ProgrammeLinkage programme has also extended to MS and PhD programmes. This programme is known as split degree programme. Candidates in the split programme can pursue part of their course work/research at the partnering Insti-tutions of UK depending upon the agreement and compliance with the requirements of the collaborating institution and with the approval of concerned supervising and administering

Centres of Excellence

The Semester SystemThe scheme of courses and the rules and regulations of IMSciences have been designed to meet interna-tional standards. All programmes of study at the IM-Sciences are run under a rigorous semester system.

The performance of students is evaluated through a continuous testing procedure spread over the entire period of studies. In each semester three monthly and one comprehensive exam are held. Attendance plays an important role in semester system, and at IMSciences it is made sure that every student fulfills the standard requirement of attendance i.e. at least 80%. Semester system education enables a student to be successful in nowadays fast and challenging world. Students are kept busy and working with con-stant home assignments, surprise quizzes and several presentations. One of the most important features of semester system is that it is a gradual and system-atic way of studying. Each semester leads in to the other; that is, the first semester starts with the basics of courses and slowly the courses become advanced as the semesters move toward the final ones.

Our learning and teaching programmes have con-tinued to be highly regarded in external reviews. IMSciences has a unique approach to teaching and learning, providing our students the opportunity to develop subject-specific transferable skills, knowl-edge and attitude.

Rules and Regulations

Hourly examinations will be administered ev-ery month and thus students are required to appear in three such examinations for each course in a semester (the two best scores will be counted towards the final grade). A number of surprise quizzes will be given during classes to monitor the day to day progress of the stu-dents. Moreover, the performance of students in class discussions, written assignments, re-search reports etc., will be evaluated to form a part of their overall grades.

If the requirements are not met within this time limit, the student’s grade in that course will be converted into a ‘fail’. No “Make Up’ examina-tion will be allowed in any course under any circumstances. A Grade Point Average (GPA) will be computed at the end of the course for all students. Final letter grades in each course will be converted to grade points on the fol-lowing basis:

c. GPA Requirements

Students must maintain a minimum GPA/CGPA of 2.2 on a cumulative basis during the course of their academic programme. Students with a GPA/CGPA. of less than 2.0 will be dropped from the rolls of the Institute forthwith. Stu-dents securing a GPA/CGPA between 2.0 and 2.2 will be on probation for one semester.

At the end of the semester, students on proba-tion will be required to improve their GPA/CGPA

a. Attendance

Every student of the Institute is required to maintain at least 80% of the attendance in each course. A student who fails to meet the minimum requirements of attendance in any course will not be allowed to sit for final ex-amination for that course(s). The 20% margin of absence has been allowed to cover the ab-sence from the classes due to illness or other unavoidable circumstances. All events such as seminars, special lab work, guest speakers dis-course, etc. requiring attendance may be ad-justed to cover shortage in attendance in the related subject

A student short of the prescribed attendance level in any course(s) shall be considered as having failed in that course(s) and his CGPA/GPA will be calculated accordingly.

It is the responsibility of the students to con-stantly monitor their attendance level.

b. Evaluation and Grading

The performance of students will be evaluated through a continuous testing procedure spread over the entire period of studies/semester. Be-sides the semester’s final examination, which carries forty percent of the total marks, there will be a number of tests, term papers, assign-ments, presentations and short quizzes.

Otherwise the student will be dropped from the rolls of the Institute. If a student fails certain courses but manages to maintain the required GPA/CGPA, he/she may be allowed to repeat and clear the course(s) or substitute(s) (wherever permissible) before the degree is awarded.

The GPA is computed as follows:
