Environment of encouragementfor creative thinking

All the ills of any nation start with lack of education and unfortunately Pakistan is one of them where the literacy rate is lower than 45%. Realizing this weakness of our nation it has been my lifelong passion and desire to do something about it. Therefore I decided that I should put my resources and efforts to contribute towards the development of education in Pakistan. Despite numerous hurdles and loss of precious years, I continued striving to setup the Barrett Hodgson University in Karachi.

It is a proud moment for all of us especially for me that the Barrett Hodgson University Karachi has opened its doors for admission. One thing I repeat that we all have to bear in mind, the lack of education facilities and or its accessibility to some individuals is the primary cause of nation’s under development.

“An illiterate man is like a blind person in a dark room who will never see the light of the day”

I wish the University lot of success.

Message from the Life Chairperson

Message from the ChancellorEducation is the single most important factor in developing the economy of Pakistan. Its the most valuable tool an individual can possess, and holds the key to our country’s future. Henceforth, it is my strong belief that if we wish to succeed, we must empower our educational system. While many have spoken around the benefits of education, few have acted upon addressing this change. We believe it is time to address this gap and ensure our youth an opportunity that can embolden their future. Here at Barrett Hodgson University (BHU), we are committed to achieving this goal as we provide a foundation that cultivates passion, intelligence and character with largely one outstanding mission – To Provide Quality Education for our Children.

I welcome all my undergraduate students, and sincerely thank my dedicated faculty at BHU for mentoring our youth. This University was created in the face of many challenges. However, we pushed hard and were persistent in our mission. We have built an institution that is predicated upon values of integrity and transparency. These core values are the basis of every project I have established, and BHU has been built upon these values. It is a product of our sheer persistence against all odds, and it is this spirit of perseverance, loyalty and stick-to-it-ness that we aim to instill in our children as well.

The University is new yet fully equipped to walk you through each program with the goal of finding your unique passion. Additionally, the experience goes beyond books and laboratories as we have built an aesthetically pleasant campus with athletic facilities meeting international standards as we stand with our youth, and remain united to provide a system where they flourish.

Our goal is to empower our education system and also improve the culture of our nation. Here, at BHU, we want our students to be very proud of and confidently exclaim that they belong to a Pakistani Academic Institution. We want our parents, relatives and people abroad to become excited about what BHU stands for. We want local communities to look within our nation first- for education, and not abroad. Today, Karachi hears us but I can assure that one day the world will also hear about the success of our children.

I am proud of what we have accomplished, and look forward to the many unprecedented opportunities BHU has to offer. Our children will become leaders in business and industry. They will serve our nation with optimism and pride. They will make their mark on this world and Barrett Hodgson University will always be there to support, sustain, and encourage those who are determined to learn.

Best of luck and endless success to Barrett Hodgson University,

Dr Iram AfaqChancellor

Mission

06 07

AmbitionWe aspire for every member of the community to be a high achiever.

Collaboration We believe in setting and sharing common goals and working together in achieving them. BHU members are actively involved in the well-being of society around them.

ExcellenceWe strive for the highest quality in all that we do, recognizing that to achieve it we must always adhere to merit and merit alone.

Innovation We believe in out-of-the-box thinking and welcome creative thinkers and value those with entrepreneurial and creative minds who challenge established dogmas and practices. The pursuit of knowledge towards improving our society is a valuable asset.

IntegrityWe behave in an honest, fair and ethical manner by creating a culture of trust that spans across all institutional activities. Our actions display the utmost integrity towards our institution and our country.

Respect and ToleranceWe believe that every member of our community should be treated with utmost civility, respect, and professionalism regardless of their background, socio-economic status, religious beliefs, handicap, gender or age.

ResponsibilityWe believe that each individual and institution has the responsibility to add value to society.

Our Core ValuesAt BHU we believe that the difference between good and great curricula is the methodology adopted to transfer knowledge to the ultimate stakeholders – our students. We bring this difference to the fore through the adoption of the ‘SPICES’ curriculum model as a guiding philosophy with the following elements: Student-centered/active learning, Problem/practice based, Integrated, Community/systems-based, Electives, and Systematic approaches. In addition, our curricula through all our programs incorporate research and inter-professional experiences.

Case-based seminars that employ case-based collaborative learning approach; a hybrid of problem-based learning, and team-based learning approaches are offered in the early professional phase of our programs to promote learning in both; small groups to prepare for ‘case-based seminars’; and in tutorial settings with student-directed learning.

Key components of the curriculum philosophy: • Systematic curriculum that builds upon a solid foundation of basic courses in the early years • Utilize active-learning in different settings including web-supported technologies in both large and small class sizes as well as laboratory settings • Incorporation of case-based learning in a seminar course sequence that runs parallel to the integrated course sequences • Incorporation of practicum and simulation in a series of courses beginning with the early professional phase of the curriculum with emphasis on skills development and demonstrating effective communication skills • Integration of research principles and application with a required capstone research project • Incorporation of elective didactic and experiential education courses • Design of inter-professional education and practice experiences within the didactic and experiential settings across multiple settings in the healthcare system • Extensive experiential education

Messages from the Deans

We at BHU believe that our greatest assets are our students, and by investing in their education we are not only investing in the future of the profession, but also in the future of the healthcare system in Pakistan. It is a fact that pharmacists have a direct impact on the quality of patient care, and therefore play a crucial role in the healthcare system of a country.

We at BHU, therefore apply a multifaceted approach to provide our students with holistic education to ensure that they develop into young professionals who are fully cognizant of the pharmaceutical, clinical, and social aspects of their profession.We are also aware that current PharmD degree program in Pakistan needs the integration of clinical aspects of pharmacy with scientific knowledge, we have therefore developed academic collaboration with a number of hospitals to incorporate clinical visits and internships in our PhamD curriculum.

We aim to equip our students with knowledge, skills, and tools that will give them a distinct standing in the professional market. Dr Noor KamilProfessorDean, Faculty of Pharmacy

Faculty of Pharmacy

We are a new university that has been established with the objective of setting new standards of excellence in Pakistan. Our objective is to create a space in higher education that is in synch with the environment of the global marketplace which is in the process of transformation and change.

Our approach in the development of curricula has therefore been to be creative and entrepreneurial towards introducing new ideas aimed towards the personal and intellectual development of our students. This is the reason that our curricula is different from the run-of-the-mill programs being offered by the other universities in Pakistan, while at the same time remaining within the bounds of the requirements of the HEC model curricula.

Our curricula not only allows the students the opportunity to experience and develop an understanding of the latest technologies, but also exposes them to applied learning through experiential learning, field visits, and workshops from the very beginning of the program.

Computing and computer technology are part of just about everything touching our lives today, from the cars we drive to the movies we watch to the many ways we all interact with each other. At times computer science is often confused with the everyday use of computers, such as using internet and web services, downloading and installing different services / apps, playing games etc. Rather, it is the study of principles, applications, and technologies of computing and computers. It involves the systematic study of data and data structures and the algorithms to process these structures; of principles of computer architecture; of addressing particular challenges in areas such as robotics, computer vision, or digital forensics; and of language design and structure.

At BHU, we provide a niche program in computer science. Consistent with our vision to be a leader in innovation, research, and dissemination of knowledge we aspire to impart education in an effective and contemporary manner so we can prepare our students to cope with the rapid changes in the market needs. We offer tracks in Technology Entrepreneurship, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Information Security, Software Engineering and Medical Informatics. Our faculty consists of members with local and international research and industry experience. What makes us unique is our cross disciplinary collaboration in research and development. BHU will offer flexible study environment where students will be empowered to focus on inter-disciplinary areas as per their motivation.
