Currently the FFHP is in closure stage and target of the projects will be achieved by June 30, 2013.
The Interim Placement of Fresh PhD Program (IPFP) is designed to provide a Tenure Track System based Assistant Professor Position for a maximum of one year period to fresh PhDs from reputed foreign universities to pursue a teaching profession in Pakistani public sector universities / Degree Awarding Institutes. This program, on a preferential basis, will seek placements for these HEC scholars who upon return to Pakistan after obtaining the doctorate degree will be requiring an immediate employment. The program will primarily provide specialized faculty in the country which would reduce the need of expert faculty to a certain extent at least on a short time frame basis. In the long term, the project would result in positive impact on the national economy in general and industry in particular. The program will also attract fresh PhD graduates to Pakistan on a respectable salary and a place to anchor themselves without any waiting period in getting a suitable employment. The qualified applicants selected on merit through this program will only be placed in those universities who have opted for tenure track system and have a position available and are ready to complete the selection as per their procedure within the next six months but not exceeding twelve (12) months.
