Institutions play pivotal roles
in the establishment of empowered societies. Lahore College for Women
University, with a full time enrolment of about 16,000 students and a teaching
faculty of more than 500 members, is one of the most influential institutions
for women education in Pakistan. It admits students at the Intermediate,
Graduate, Masters and Ph.D. levels. LCWU remains a charm for every
Intermediate/Undergraduate level student as every year we receive thousands of
applications from all over the country and abroad but only the top selected
candidates get a chance to sit through the admission test and
Interview.Ourpassed out students get appointed and serve in top positions in
national and international organizations and fields like media, politics, civil
services, provincial services and other fields that earlier have not been quite
open for women. The University, over the years, has evolved into a symbol of
excellence as an institution that ensures transference of quality education to
women.
The conquest of an institute
depends on its vision and LCWU's lucid vision has led to its rising stature.
The Administrative and Financial Autonomy was given to the institution in the
year 1990 which proved to be the turning point in the history of LCWU. The excellent
performance during the period of administrative and financial autonomy paved
the way for grant of academic autonomy and degree awarding status was granted
in August-1999. The award of university status on 10th Sep,2002 added another
feather in the cap of Lahore College for Women University as an institution of
higher education for female education and women empowerment. Since the
establishment of LCWU as a University, the institution has striven for
improvement in Higher Education. At the time of autonomy, only six disciplines
offered Masters Classes, but now with the University status, LCWU is offering
degrees at graduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels. BS 4 year degree program
is being offered in 43 disciplines and 5 years Phram-D and Architecture degree
is yet another highlight. The University is offering M.A/M.Sc. in 4 subjects
and MS/M.Phil degree in 28 subjects. Moreover, the University is offering Ph.D.
programs in 18 disciplines that are of immense significance.
External linkages in the forms of
LOIS and MOUS with local and Foreign Universities have been established in the
fields of Pharmacy, Electronics, Environmental Science, Fine Arts, English,
Economics, Mass Communication and Gender Development Studies. The vision behind
this advancement, though forward looking, is rooted deeply in the mission of
the University duly approved by the syndicate. LCWU (Intermediate College) At
F.A. / F.Sc. level the Intermediate College of LCWU is affiliated with the
Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education, Lahore for the purpose of
examinations. This Intermediate College has proved to be a very fruitful
nursery in providing women force for professional education in the province.
The 21st century has brought a tremendous revolution in science, which has completely
transformed the world. Today, sciences are exploring areas that defy
imagination. Keeping in line with the importance of the sciences in today's
world, LCWU has been fulfilling demand of the female students in this area too.
Since 1922, the Institution has
firmly established its worth and significance in the country by maintaining the
level of excellence customary to its origin. With the advancing times and
challenging
global scenarios, LCWU is making a rapid progress and there is no doubting the prospect that it would very soon reach out to the pinnacle of its glory and shine even brighter!
