A university
is the highest institution of learning. It helps a nation produce
leaders in the fields of industry and commerce, science and
technology, and arts, as well as all other disciplines of life. A
university thus has an enormous responsibility
that can only be fulfilled by
cultivating, nurturing and mentoring young minds, employing the best
of available human and material resources.
These are indeed lofty ideas, but
so are the dreams of all of us at the University of Gujrat. In fact,
UOG is fast moving towards its dreams, helped by the continued support
of the Punjab government on the one hand and the local people on the
other. Its skyline, landscape and essential features have started to
emerge from the green rice fields of Hafiz Hayat in Union Council
Ikhlas Garh, like the proverbial Phoenix.
With the ultimate objective of imparting
high quality education in the heart of Punjab, the University has set
for itself high standards of scholarship. The responsibility for
achieving this goal rests mainly with UOG’s administration that will
have to ensure that the faculty and students have all the necessary
facilities, a prerequisite for effective and uninterrupted learning.
It is important to mention here that the entire campus has a round the
clock free of cost wireless Internet connectivity.
Most importantly, UOG has a clear vision
for the future, so come and visit its thriving campus to experience
innovative learning! In short, the University strives at standing for
high quality teaching, outstanding student support, and excellent
personal and professional development. I personally look forward to
having you with us to make this a reality.
