problem-solving approach. They are
encouraged to explore and solve
problems, to break new grounds and to
cultivate leadership qualities. Pakistan is
on the threshold of a major breakthrough
in the techno-industrial fields and needs
professionals with ability and vision to lead
the way. The Institute aims at producing
such professionals with a strong base of

commitment to the national ideals.

Skills (3-0-3): The course aims to equip the
students with the necessary language and
communication skills to cope with their academic
and professional needs. The module effectively
integrates the four basic skills of language i.e.,
reading, writing, listening and speaking. The oral
communicative competence of the students is
enhanced by focusing on the phonological
aspects of language. The students are motivated
to take part in the classroom sessions where they
are encouraged to take the dynamics of stress and
intonation in consideration while speaking. The
learners are also introduced to the principles of
effective writing from the sentence level to full-
length texts with special emphasis on logical
organization of materials.

HM111 Islamic Studies/Ephics (2-0-2): The


course of Islamic Studies presents Islam as a
balanced mode of life by incorporating basic financial problems. The course provides step-by-
aspects of human rights and rule of law, step guidance through sample problems and
brotherhood. Students are also taught the solutions related to banking, credit, basic finance,
concepts relative to respect of other religions, and investment. Students will also gain an
