INTRODUCTION
|
GCU has expended the
horizon of its educational system. GCU's sprit of
co-operative development allows affiliations and
collaborations with the internationally well-reputed
Universities. GC University, Lahore has developed
academic links with foreign and Pakistani Universities,
research and strategic organizations, industries, and
multinational organizations. This has provided access to
valuable financial, technical, and managerial resources

GC University, Lahore plans to further widen the links
with universities and research organizations across
countries in true spirit and demand of the 21st Century.
Recently GCU has established departmental links to sign

and international Universities. |
