MS Structural Engineering
The course focuses on solution of problems in structural engineering by enlarging and deepening students knowledge so
that they have a good grasp of new design concepts and technologies. The course contents encompass advance techniques
for structural analysis, structural dynamics, reinforced concrete structures, and analysis and design of pre-stressed concrete
structures.
MCE
Why join this program?

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 ships-
submarines.

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.

MS and PhD in Mechatronics Engineering
College of E&ME
Mechatronics engineering blends the disciplines of mechanical, electrical and software engineering around the principles of control
systems and automation. Mechatronics engineers create and work with systems that have various degrees of automation, which
are increasingly becoming common such as robots and automobiles. The Masters / PhD program in the department combines
in-depth technical knowledge required to work in this fast-changing discipline with broader aspects of engineering. The program
is strongly influenced by industrial perspectives and has state-of-the-art facilities, which includes equipment related to Robotics,
Manufacturing, Machine Vision, Embedded Systems Labs, Brain Controlled Interface and Prosthetics.
Although the discipline of Mechatronics Engineering is relatively new in Pakistan, yet it has been able to successfully integrate
with the demands of major main stream industry. In the industrial sector employers are looking for specialized skill set and their
perception of these expertise are directly gauged from the courses that are studied by a particular applicant in his Masters degree.
Moreover, majority of mechatronics related indigenous as well as international jobs are available under the umbrella of Robotics,
Automation, Smart Systems, Autonomous Systems, Bio-Medical/Bio-Engineering, Machine Vision and Instrumentation. Therefore,
in order to allow the student to align his/her interest with the industry the department has introduced number of relevant
specializations/streams which include:
Robotics and Industrial Automation: Robotics and Industrial Automation are the hallmark areas of specialization for
mechatronics engineers. Whether operating a small company or a big business, there are a number of robotic component
solutions available for performing a large number of different functions and the industry in Pakistan is now beginning to take
cognizance of this fact. In addition, presently there are a number of highly specialized companies that are fully geared up to
provide complete end to end automation solutions to major local industries (e.g., the Oil & Gas industry, Cement Industry,
Sports Goods Industry, etc.).
Smart ElectroMechanical Systems: Smart Electromechanical Systems is the technology of the future. It encompasses systems
and devices that collect information over sensors, make independent decisions based upon this information, then act upon
it in a suitable manner. Security aspects, reliability, miniaturization, energy consumption and intelligent data processing, all
play a critical role in smart systems. To find successful solutions, it is therefore necessary to consider the smart system and
its environment as an entire strategy. Therefore the field of smart systems is essential in the industry since it allows systems
to make independent decisions regarding maintenance and make intelligent reactions to sensor data which is the focus of
research in most industrially developed nations.
Biomechatronics: Biomechatronics is an applied interdisciplinary science that aims to integrate mechanical elements,
electronics with parts of biological organisms. Biomechatronics includes the aspects of biology, mechanics, and electronics. It
enhances the fields of robotics and neuroscience towards prosthetics, brain-controlled devices and human machine interaction.
Industrial applications of the technology include the development of improved prosthesis, bio-sensors and artificial muscles,
which represents technologies of the future.

This program enables graduates to acquire training in the theory and practice of a broad range of industrially relevant topics within
the fields of Mechatronics Engineering. It is designed specifically to meet the needs of the modern engineer both in industry and
in research or education establishments. One of the foremost and most popular program of studies, offered by almost all leading
universities in the world, is specialization in the field of robotics and automation. Another widely accepted and dominant area of
industrial research is the field of Smart Electromechanical Systems, which is used in a very wide cross-section of industrial systems
in different domains. Finally, Biomechatronics is the latest emerging technology that is based on the principles of mechatronics
engineering.The department of Mechatronics Engineering has taken cognizance of the latest trends and after completion of the
MS program our students will be able to make substantial contributions in all the above mentioned focus areas in the academic as
well as industrial sector.
MS/PhD Coursework
Students will be required to take a total of eight courses in each stream. Out of these eight courses the students will have to take
the specified four core courses (same for all streams) and chose four elective courses that will be offered in each semester. The
scheme of studies including the Core and Elective courses with credit hours for each specialization is given below:

College of Aeronautical Engineering
(CAE), Risalpur
College of Aeronautical Engineering
During the early years of Pakistan Air Force (PAF), aeronautical and electronics engineers were trained abroad as the service had
no such technical training facilities and no engineering university in Pakistan offered curricula in the requisite fields. The initiative
to establish facilities for educating PAF engineers to the level of at least a Bachelors Degree had to be taken by the PAF either
in collaboration with one of the existing engineering institutions or by establishing its own engineering college. PAF set its own
college at Korangi Creek, Karachi in 1965. For a concrete foundation and functioning of the College, the United States Air Force
CAE
lent the services of three qualified and experienced officers for the posts of the Principal and the Heads of the Department of
Aerospace and Avionics Engineering. Colonel John H. Blakelock from USAF Institute of Technology arrived on July 7, 1965 to
be the first Principal. The first batch of students arrived at the College on 24 July, 1965 and instructions for the course started
on 29 July, 1965. Graduation ceremony of the first-degree course was held on 9 November, 1968. Two USAF officers continued
to serve in the faculty of the College till June, 1978. The College was initially affiliated with the University of Karachi. Later, on
the establishment of NED University of Engineering & Technology in March, 1977, affiliation of the College was transferred to
NED University. In May, 1986, CAE was shifted to Risalpur and since then it is an integral part of the PAF Academy. In December,
1994, the College became one of the constituent colleges of National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Islamabad.
In 1997, MS programs in Aerospace and Avionics Engineering commenced at CAE. In 1999 to keep pace with the technological
advancements and to meet the international requirements, ISO 9000 certification for the quality management system of its
academic programs was successfully achieved. Outcome Based Education (OBE) program was started at CAE in 2014 after PEC
became a provisional signatory of the Washington Accord (WA) of International Engineering Alliance (IEA).
Academic Departments
The college has five academic departments:
Humanities & Sciences Department

Aerospace Engineering Department
Avionics Engineering Department
Industrial Engineering Department
Professional Continuing Education Department
QUALITY POLICY
Commitment to make College of Aeronautical Engineering
All the departments have highly qualified faculty with rich a center of excellence for quality education in the field of
academic, research and field experience. Most of them have aeronautical engineering through an enabling environment,
acquired higher education from reputed institutions of USA, adaptive academic mechanisms and competent faculty.
Europe, Australia and China. The research undertaken by the
faculty and students comprises areas related to aerospace
structures, computational fluid dynamics, communication,
control, digital signal processing, microwave engineering,
project management and optimisation.

NUST SEECS Alumni
NUST SEECS is an exceptional institution with regards to the academies geography of

Pakistan in the respect that it offers those individuals who have the will to endeavor, the
chance to take the first steps towards their professional aspirations and ambitions. Having
started and maintained my own startup NUSTBites I was amazed and impressed by the
support and encouragement I received from SEECS faculty, students and even staff. Therefore
for me it will always be the alma matter that guided and groomed me professionally, socially
and academically
Saad bin Khalid (BEE-1)
You want to be proud of yourself? Strive to be a part of SEECS. Yes, I really mean it. It wasnt
easy for me (or anyone in that case) to survive in SEECS but it sure was the best adventure of
my life and a milestone in achieving extraordinary goals. From fun, sports, recreational clubs
to projects, exams and lectures each day was a challenge in its own way which prepared me
for the life ahead creating remarkable memories along the way. I look back to the 4 years with
pride and awe.
Hira Jafri (BICSE 7)
The University you graduate from becomes your identity for lifetime and I am fortunate
enough to be identified as a graduate from one of the most prestigious schools of NUST.
SEECS has undoubtely been a hub for academic excellence from many years but for me as
an indidividual, it has not only provided me with quality academic qualification and a strong
professional start, but also many diverse opportunities to excel in every field of my talent and
interest. I personally feel, the scope of my experience and achivements would not be be this
vast, if I was not part of this multicultural, diverse and supportive college community. Having
represented Pakistan and NUST at various international forums, I can surely say that the level
of exposure you get here is equally competent and inline with international standards and
practises as long as your are willing to benefit from it. To me with all evens and odds, the four
year journey at NUST has been an amazing roller coaster ride!

SEECS
coursework of the MS-IS program has been designed with a special emphasis on preparing research-ready students that can
undertake significant postgraduate research work, as well as equipping them with practical knowledge needed to pursue a career
in information security engineering.

Information security is one of the most essential requirements for an information-based economy of the future. Organisations
and people that use and depend on information technology must ensure that their systems are not compromised and exploited
by attackers. This program will expose the students to the advanced technologies in attacking computer and communication
systems as well as preventing attacks. Students will have a solid foundation to conduct research and development in new security
technologies which will give them a competitive advantage in the industry. It should be noted that this degree is intellectually
challenging and students with a passion for problem solving using mathematics and/or computer programming will find this
course very interesting and rewarding.

Thrust areas of Materials Engineering

1. Metallurgy
Metallurgy is the technology of metals: the way in which science is applied to the production of metals, and the engineering
of metal components for usage in products for consumers and manufacturers. It is also the study of physical and chemical be-
havior of metallic elements, their intermetallic compounds, and their alloys. The production of metals involves the processing
of ores to extract the metal they contain, and the mixture of metals, sometimes with other elements, to produce alloys. The
curriculum has been designed so as to fulfill the requirement of our industry.
2. Corrosion & Protection
Corrosion is a natural process, which converts a refined metal to a more stable form, such as its oxide or hydroxide. It is the
gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical reaction with their environment. Corrosion Engineering is the
field dedicated to controlling and stopping corrosion The problem of corrosion is commonly present in industry like oil & gas
sector, paper & pulp industry, automobile industry, railway and aircraft industry etc. SCME trains its students of Materials
Engineering to understand science of corrosion and apply their knowledge towards its mitigation.
3. Polymers Science & Engineering
A polymer is a large molecule, or macromolecule, composed of many repeated subunits. Polymers range from familiar syn-
thetic plastics such as polystyrene to natural biopolymers such as DNA and proteins that are fundamental to biological struc-
ture and function. The trend of promoting the light weight objects is equally important as the use of biodegradable polymer
materials. Polymer science is the field of diverse studies which touched its boundaries with chemical as well as materials
science and technology. The incorporation of nanotechnology in polymer science makes it diverse and robust in this domain.

Research Center for Modelling and
Simulation, (RCMS), Islamabad
Research Center for Modelling and Simulation (RCMS)
In order to set up modeling and simulation facilities for design and development in various disciplines through education,
training and research, Research Center for Modeling and Simulation was established at NUST in 2007. The center was founded to
act as a platform to integrate design and development efforts by the government, academia and industry through collaborative
cross-disciplinary research and educational programs. Specifically, there was a need for integrating analytical and computational
RCMS
techniques with advances in computer hardware and software.

RCMS started its first MS program in Computational Science and Engineering in Fall 2008. In Fall, 2010, the program was
extended to PhD in Computational Science and Engineering. In Fall 2013, RCMS launched Pakistans first ever MS program of
Systems Engineering. Facilitated by the enabling environment comprising state of the art constituent laboratories, library and
adaptive mechanisms, faculty and students at RCMS developed a multi-disciplinary approach to research and education, making
many notable contributions. Recently, the education, training and research activities have been divided into two main streams or
departments, namely: Computational Sciences; and Computational Engineering. These departments have been further divided
into divisions to keep the activities focused, better managed as well as synergized. Computational Sciences comprises Computer
Science, Bio-informatics, and Computational & Applied Mathematics. Similarly, Computational Engineering division is divided into
Engineering Sciences, Systems Engineering and Operations Research.

MS in Systems Engineering
Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary field of engineering focusing on how complex engineering projects and products
should be designed and managed over their entire life cycles. The aim of education in Systems Engineering is to simply formal-
ize the approach and in doing so, identify new methods and research opportunities similar to the way it occurs in other fields of
engineering. As an approach, Systems Engineering is holistic and interdisciplinary.
Its focus is on integration and overall system optimization to ensure that all likely aspects of a project, product or system are
taken into consideration and embedded into design and management planning. It is a considered opinion that Systems Engineer-
ing will play an important role for the future of the scientific discovery process and engineering design.
