It is impossible
to think of institution-building and social progress without a clear
vision which comes through innovative ideas. Great ideas are given
by the intellectuals who are the product of great educational
institutions. GC
University is one such institution, the producer of people of great
ideas.
GC University
prepares its academic plans in the light of three guiding
principles: efficiency, relevance and quality. We impart
interdisciplinary knowledge and produce open minds rather than
graduates with limited outlook. In other words, the focus of the new
University is on quality, equality, and diversity at all the three
levels: class, race, and gender.

Prof. Dr. Khalid Aftab
Vice Chancellor |
At the advent of
the new millennium, we indeed have a clear vision for the emerging
university handed on to us by our fore-bears with 144 years history
(GCU was established in 1864).
The rich traditions passed on to us
by these intellectuals will help and guide us in determining and
shaping the ideals of this new University. We fully know our
direction as well as our destination. We work to get to a height
where we can compete with the world-class universities.
GC University
Lahore stands towering among comparable institutions in providing
education of a high class at intermediate & higher levels offering
its students opportunities for overall development in a disciplined
and peaceful environment. Out of its portals have walked men who
went on to become top scientists, teachers, economists, writers,
poets, bureaucrats, politicians and professionals and also Nobel
Laureates
GCU now offers
market-driven applied graduate and postgraduate courses in all the
conventional and upcoming modern disciplines. GCU should address to
contemporary human needs and also engage with old traditions and
core human values. GCU equips its students for the pursuit of latest
knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed in the highly
competitive job market of the 21st century.
GC University,
Lahore has maintained wonderful traditions of academic excellence,
research, promotion of new ideas and above all, respect for others'
belief and views. And it is these traditions that have been the
guiding spirit of our endeavors to maintain GCU as a unique
institution.
