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 1990s 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.

MS Leading to PhD in Electrical Engineering (Evening) 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.

I really found Islamabad a very nice green city and Lahore is a historical city that portrays Pakistans cultural heritage. Before I came here I didnt think about Pakistan like this; so my idea about Pakistan has totally changed. Nahid Asadi (Iran) Ive been welcomed very kindly as I find this is generally 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! Mr Alexander Schmid (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.. Mr Florian Gasteiger (Germany)

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 biomaterials, 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.

Structural engineers combine science and art to design and build infrastructure that will resist natural and manmade forces. Buildings, bridges, stadiums and other civil facilities define the traditional core focus of structural engineers. At the periphery of the field, structural engineering extends more broadly to share common interests with mechanical, aerospace and naval engineering for the design of often large, complex systems including power plants, pipelines, aerospace vehicles and shipssubmarines.

SMME 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.
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.
