Universities in Pakistan are playing a significant role in the overall progress of the country. Their significance lies not only in providing degrees, but also in producing quality human resources for various sectors of the economy. To achieve this goal, Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) has shaped some guidelines to appraise the quality of education in Pakistan, making it accessible and more relevant to the ever changing circumstances and global needs. GIKI is the first privately funded Institute of its kind in Pakistan, dedicated to bringing Engineering Education at par with the advanced countries. The Engineering programs of the Institute are accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) and implement internal quality benchmarks to enhance academic teaching and learning. The Institute is keen to strengthen its monitoring standards to remain comparable with the competitive international education and research standards. It follows strict guidelines to assess its quality of education, and the establishment of the Quality Enhancement Cell at GIKI (in accordance with Pakistan’s Higher Education Commission (HEC)’ Guidelines is another step in this direction.
