Default OIC terms UAF, AKU top Pak universities

The Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC) has ranked the University of Agriculture, Faisalabad second best Pakistani university after Agha Khan University.
This was stated by Prof Dr Iqrar Ahmad Khan, Vice Chancellor of UAF, while addressing the Assistant Professor's meeting as a chief guest held on Friday at New Senate Hall of the university. Dr Iqrar urged the young scientists to explore new avenues as a global researcher as a lot of funding opportunities were available in various funding agencies and global universities in many disciplines. He said that the Australian Nobel Laureate in Microbiology Mr. Berry Marshal has agreed to supervise PhD & post doctoral scholars from the UAF and he asked the young faculty members to enhance their capacity under the supervision of the said Nobel prize winner. Dr Iqrar said due to highest standard of education & research, the number of research projects being run by the university's scientists has increased fourfold during the last three years as in the said tenure, the UAF have won 214 external funded projects worth of Rs. 1085 million as compare to 70 projects worth 200 million three years back. Talking about pay system, he said traditional Basic Pay Scale System is being replaced with Tenure Track System in Public Sector the universities have adopted this mechanism keeping in view enhancement of teaching standards. Now, it is the era of the TTS as it plays pivotal role in grooming of the teachers he said, adding that the teachers on TTS enjoy 30 percent increase in their salaries in the financial year as compare to 15 percent in BPS.
Terming the educationists an engine of growth, he urged them to expedite the pace of work for the development of country as well as common man as he said salaries of the educationists are being paid from the taxes of the common man so they should leave no stone unturned to come up to the expectations of the society and for the welfare of the nation.
Prof Dr Asif Ali, Director of Office of Research, Innovation & Commercialization (ORIC) UAF, said on the occasion that the faculty members are taking keen interest in the research as it could be gauged from the fact that as many as 365 research projects worth 3,000 million are in pipeline that will be executed soon.
