It is responsible for moving research results and discoveries from the laboratory to the marketplace. It does so by being fully aware of the university R&D activities, invention disclosures and market needs. It assesses commercial potential and successfully transfers technology for commercial applications. It also creates and manages synergies and collaborations with other research entities and organisations to facilitate commercialisation.

Technology Incubation Centre (TIC)

The Centre has been established to facilitate and support the innovation engine of the University. It is the first model technology business incubator of Pakistan established under the academia, to provide an environment that attracts and nurtures technology based start-up companies, and transforms them into commercially viable enterprises. TIC provides a platform for NUST faculty/students, having commercially viable R&D output, to establish their own start-up companies in order to commercialise their R&D work as entrepreneurs.

The objectives of TIC include fostering an entrepreneurial culture, by providing the students and faculty of NUST, an opportunity to transform their technology-based business ideas to reality. These facilities are also open to the general public, provided they contribute to NUST knowledge base. It further aims to facilitate the availability of NUST resources to the incubatees in a mutually beneficial way by liaising with private/public sector funding sources, government agencies, industrial associations, chambers of commerce and industries to provide facilitation and networking for Incubatee companies.

Fact file

Technology Incubation Centre (TIC) is the first incubator established in an academic institution in Pakistan. It was established to promote technology commercialisation and entrepreneurship amongst budding entrepreneurs and NUST students.

Bachelors in Software Engineering

Programme Description

Software is central to our lives. We interact daily with software systems; at home through computer games, at the office through online services and in the car through embedded control systems. Software Engineering applies both, computer science and engineering principles and best practices to the design, implementation, testing, maintenance, and evolution of software. Our Software Engineering programme covers not only the technical aspects of building software systems, but also management issues. This programme is an amalgamation of strong applied science knowledge, applications of engineering practice and an ability to understand the impact of technology. We endeavour to help students carry out both theoretical and experimental research in software engineering and to disseminate the results in the form of publications, patents and technology transfer to industry.

Associated Careers

The software industry has grown exponentially over the years; mechanical and electronic devices in automobiles, aeroplanes, entertainment and communication equipment and manufacturing are being replaced by software components because software is more adaptable, and can provide greater functionality. The ubiquity of software applications has created a multitude of career prospects for our graduates. Our graduates normally find employment with major service providers and large private industrial groups. There are a number of opportunities available within smaller service and technology providers, some of which are highly specialised and technologically advanced.

MS Leading to PhD in Information Security Systems


Cyber threats to federal information systems and cyber-based critical infrastructures are evolving and growing. These threats can be unintentional and intentional, targeted or non-targeted, and can come from a variety of sources, such as foreign nations engaged in espionage and information warfare, criminals, hackers, virus writers, disgruntled employees and contractors working within an organisation. As government, private sector, and personal activities continue to move to networked operations; digital systems add ever more capabilities; wireless systems become more ubiquitous and as the design, manufacture, and service of information technology have moved overseas, the threat will continue to grow. In the absence of robust security programmes, agencies have experienced a wide range of incidents involving data loss or theft, computer intrusions and privacy breaches; underscoring the need for improved security practices.

Information Security Centre of Excellence

This setup is aimed at reducing the vulnerabilities faced by the national information infrastructure and cyber-space, by producing more qualified graduates and researchers in the various disciplines of Information Security, as well as indigenously designing and delivering technological solutions. The research and technical solutions designed at the proposed Information Security Centre of Excellence, will provide import substitute and enhanced level of trust.

Associated Careers

The programme is focused to produce professionals competent enough to offer solution for Information Security problems in the market. Graduates of this programme will be able to address information security related issues in present and future era of Information Technology. The need of Information Security has grown dramatically over the last few years. Like the Industrial Revolution, the Information Technology Boom, which started in the 1990’s and is still present today, has dramatically changed commerce around the world. This is mostly due to advancement of technology in computers, telecommunications equipment, and networking standards, leading to the development and widespread use of the Internet. This propagation of information security has led to an urgent and growing demand for information security professionals in Pakistan and all over the world. A hundred percent of our graduates go into employment or higher studies/professional trainings immediately after completion of their degrees. Our graduates normally pursue careers in major service providers such as PTCL, Warid, Mobilink, Zong, Ufone, Telenor and Special Communication Organisation (SCO); large private industrial groups such as Microsoft, NetSol, Ericsson, and Cisco; and a host of smaller service and technology providers.

Specialisation: Control Systems

Control Systems Engineering is the foundation of modern industrial development. This sequence builds a strong base in systems engineering and links it to the control systems theory of linear and non-linear systems. A heavy dose of abstract linear algebra and control theory enables students to handle systems in domains of their interest as researchers. The continuous-time control theory is also extended to discrete-time to enable the development of modern computer-based control systems. The option also focuses on more modern and sophisticated adaptive, optimal, robust, neuro-fuzzy and learning control concepts, etc.


Modern developments in the world especially in industrial and military applications are mostly due to enhancements in control systems. Most modern control systems happen to be the main technologies behind all the precision machines and weapon systems. The associated developments in sensor technologies, actuating systems, system model identification, digital instrumentation and signal processing tools are playing vital roles in these sophisticated control systems. The faculty members associated with this specialisation are professional engineers and scientists, each actively engaged in research work as well as teaching.

Department of Mechatronics Engineering

Bachelors in Mechatronics Engineering

Mechatronics refers to a flexible, multi-technological approach for integration of mechanical engineering, computer engineering, electronics and information sciences. Mechatronics is essential in the design of intelligent products. It allows engineers to transform their virtual concepts into real life applications. It is a relatively new concept relating to the design of systems, devices and products aimed at achieving an optimal balance between basic mechanical structure and its overall control. The programme involves research and coursework that will push the frontiers of technology in intelligent product design and development. The research activities involve design and control of intelligent robotic systems and automated machines.


Modern state-of-the-art industries have changed rapidly from pure mechanical-, manufacturing-, and process-controlled type to electro-mechanical, fully automated and computerised. It has become the requirement for people working on those processes and production lines to have knowledge of all the related systems.

Department of Engineering Management

MS Leading to PhD in Engineering Management (Evening)

The Engineering Management programme is designed to equip engineers for top management positions, like technical executives in manufacturing and service organisations both in public and private sectors. Latest courses and management tools provide the students with in-depth knowledge and skills in this field. The programme is structured in accordance with the international standards and comparable with similar programmes being offered at other reputed universities in the world.


Effective and efficient management is one of the important aspects in career progression for every engineer, irrespective of discipline, organisation, employment and position. Most of the engineering graduates, after completing their bachelors degree, enter the job market in their respective engineering discipline and are involved in technical work. Within 5-7 years of their employment, they are less involved in technical fields and more in management aspects of technical enterprises. This programme endeavours to transform students, who are already graduate engineers, with a diversified engineering discipline into visionary technical leaders, skilful communicators, and high achievers.

Associated Careers

The engineers so prepared, are the ultimate candidates for the positions of Chief Executive Officers, Chief Operating Officers, Chief Technical Officers, and other technical management positions in technology-oriented industrial and service organisations.

I really found Islamabad a very nice green city and Lahore is a historical city that portrays Pakistan’s cul-tural heritage. Before I came here I didn’t think about Pakistan like this; so my idea about Pakistan has totally changed. NahidAsadi(Iran) I’ve been welcomed very kindly as I find this is gener-ally characteristic for Pakistan. I can rely on any support from my colleagues, the university administration and especially from the IAESTE local team, who are doing a fantastic job!MrAlexanderSchmid(Austria)

As I arrived in Pakistan I was totally surprised how friendly the people here are. They supported me by the first minute of my arrival. At NUST it is even better. I instantly found new friends and everyday is even better than the day before..MrFlorianGasteiger(Germany)

An important element of the undergraduate programme is the industrial design project, designed to strengthen their understanding of engineering fundamentals and develop their advanced engineering skills. The project also develops new outreach activities to inspire promising scholars to study at the University. At a higher level, these industrial design graduates may succeed in making vital equipment inventions.

The School enjoys reciprocal ties with universities in Europe, China and the ASEAN countries, and continues to forge stronger links with the academia and research communities across the world. In this regard, an MoU has been signed with INPT Toulouse, France, a leading university in the field of Simulation and Modelling of Fluid Dynamics. Our Materials Engineering Department is also collaborating in terms of students and teachers’ exchange with Institute of Materials (IMN) Nantes University, France. Several significant industrial projects are at hand, involving private and strategic partners. This is envisioned to provide a framework for present and future collaboration between academia and the industry and to make an important contribution towards re-vitalising the industry’s capability. It is due to this conviction that university-industry linkage is being forged at SCME in line with prevalent higher education policy.

MS Leading to PhD in Materials and Surface Engineering


In the age of nano-technology and nano-materials, research and development in the materials technology has become primordial for a nation like ours. Nano-technology research has primarily focused on molecular manufacturing, creation of tools, materials, machines and devices that will eventually enable us to untie the fundamental building blocks of nature, easily, inexpensively and in particular with defect-free properties. The Masters programme in Materials and Surface Engineering produces scientists and researchers of the future who can develop and use these materials for the betterment of the society. The emphasis of the programme is on the application of nano-technology to produce thin films, nano-composites, electronic and bio-materials, ablatives, photonics materials, armour and blast protection linings.

Associated Careers

Virtually all industries demand people with backgrounds in Materials Engineering. These people may be monitoring impurities in steel destined for an assembly line (in the steel industry), shrinking the size of circuits to improve the reliability of a pager (in the ICT industry), or designing new materials for a missile casing (in the defence industry). Industries may employ materials engineers to reduce the overall weight of a vehicle (in the automobile industry), remove limitations in power plants (in the manufacturing industry), or research product failures for a liability suit (in the legal and corporate sectors). Graduates can also exercise the option of working as researchers and scientists in a number of R&D organisations. The demand for materials engineers working on nano-materials and bio-materials is increasing as we speak. As manufacturing firms look for materials engineering needs, employment growth is expected in professional, scientific, and technical services industries also.

Student Support ServicesA panel of faculty members is designated as advisors who are available to the students for career counselling. They also guide students and solve their problems related to university life.

Alliances and PartnershipsSMME is working closely with institutes and industries like HEC, ENERGEN, NED, National Instruments and other leading automotive and oil companies.

AKI ProjectSMME project with Anwar Khawaja Industries (AKI) Sialkot has proposed a solution to the problem in Quality Control Production line. In order to ensure accuracy in circumference and roundness of footballs, AKI required a reliable, fast and low-cost solution. The annual production of AKI currently stands at 2.5 million balls for world famous brands like SELECT ™, DERBYSTAR ™.

The solution satisfies FIFA inspected accuracy standards. FIFA requires the distance of any two measured points to be not more than 9.66 cm while our proposed solution takes measurements for points that are almost 4.3 cm apart.

Collaboration with National Instruments, USASMME has strong links with National Instruments (NI) USA and have conducted joint events/workshops. SMME is the only educational institute in Pakistan to have a certified National Instruments (USA) faculty, fulfilling one of the key requirements for creating National Instruments Academy in Pakistan. The school is in the process of purchasing state-of-the art hardware and hopefully by the end of first quarter, SMME will become the first Institute in Pakistan to be National Instruments certified. The NI Academy programme combines face-to-face teaching with hands-on lab exercises, preparing students for their future careers by developing their skills in using visual programming language and acquisition systems created by National Instruments (USA).

Other Collaborations

Lubrizol USALubrizol is an oil company mainly conducting research in the area of Engine Lubricants. SMME with its experienced faculty and state-of-the-art labs convinced Lubrizol for a joint project in the field of engine tribology. Lubrizol will provide the hardware for research on the OM646 engine, looking in detail at the effect of formulations on the tribological performance of engine valve train.

BP/Castrol UK Knowing the expertise of our faculty, strong links have been developed with BP/Castrol in the area of engine tribology. For research on cam/tappet interaction, BP/Castrol not only agreed to collaborate in this project but also agreed to donate a heavy-duty diesel engine valve-train test rig worth millions of rupees. Attracting an International oil giant for research collaboration is a great achievement for Pakistan.

Millat Tractors Along with international companies, SMME is also closely working with and supporting local industries. One of the examples is the technical link developed with Millat Tractors. Knowing our expertise in the field of engines, Millat Tractors and SMME are working on a number of joint projects. This includes, development of engine blow-by monitoring system, real time oil consumption measurement system, designing of green engine test bed, etc.

The NUST Emblem

The Book of Knowledge lights up the darkness, through the Vine of Wisdom which bears the two moons and stars facing towards the East and the West, symbolising the diversity of disciplines and the fruit of knowledge.

The Rising Sun brings change, hope and enlightenment. It emanates inspiration and from the light of knowledge, four birds take wing from the nests of light, and spread out to the four corners of the world, symbolising the quest for spiritual gratification through knowledge and wisdom.

The NUST Blue is a colour that represents the future. It carries all the characteristics of the colour blue, like dignity, grace, freshness, professionalism, prudence and resolve.
