GCU Lahore is a modern, demand-driven, futuristic, quality
conscious and affordable public university. The University wishes to
build its future through internationally recognised research work,
scholarship and learning within a distinctive scholarly environment.
We are committed to be a research led institution that
values knowledge and learning for their own sake, as well as for the
cultural, social and economic benefits it offers. We are committed
to the dissemination of knowledge and learning in an environment in
which leading academicians engage their pupils in rigorous
intellectual activity. We focus increasingly on the
“learner-centred” approach to education and the promotion of
research activities. Our plans embrace three additional strategic
directions: institutional collaboration, international links and
open-learning to increase flexibility and interaction. We aim to
extend the University's reach and its capacity for research
pursuits. We believe in creating an environment in which academic
excellence can be combined with opportunities for personal
development, enabling individuals to make their own future. We
respect the academic freedom of all staff members and students.
This, we believe, is the best means of promoting creativity and
generating innovative solutions to problems.
GCU seeks to recruit staff members and produce students of
high quality. We ensure that our activities are carried out
ethically. GCU believes in pluralist diversity, and is committed to
providing best possible opportunities to all staff members and
students respectively.
Guided by this vision, we attempt to ensure three aspects
in our Academic Programmes:
(i) assurance
of quality teaching;
(ii) high
standards of research and
(iii)
organisational and managerial efficiency.
In order to
convert our vision into a reality, we create research groups within
disciplines, design new curricula and thus ensure the quality of our
graduates.
