DHA Suffa University aspires to be ranked

amongst the nation’s top educational institutions.

DHA Suffa University opened its doors in Fall

2012 to the youth of the country, with a vision to

produce world class engineers, computer

scientists, entrepreneurs and business leaders.

DSU offers undergraduate, graduate and

doctoral programs in engineering, computer

science and management sciences. Over the

past three years, DSU has undergone

over-whelming changes to build effective

systems. From infrastructure development to

technology up-gradation, curriculum revamp to

formulation of pedagogy, addition of foreign

qualified faculty to introduction of new programs,

DSU is systematically taking giant leaps towards

achieving its vision of being a Premier

Educational Institution.

HistoryDHA Suffa University was granted Charter by the

Sindh Government in the year 2002. The Charter

is not discipline specific. It gives freedom to

launch programs in any discipline. The

University derives its name from the rectangular

platform in “Masjid-e-Nabwi”, where companions

of the Prophet (PBUH) used to spend most of

their time, day and night in the quest of

knowledge. The University intends to generate

the same zeal and thirst of knowledge among its

students and faculty.

The construction of the present campus on 4

acres of land in DHA Phase VII (Ext). started in

the year 2004 and was completed in the year

2007. The capacity of this campus is 2000

students. The University is setting up its second

campus, spreading over 28 acres of land in DHA

City, Karachi.

The Master Plan of the new campus has been

developed by M/S Osmani & Company (Pvt).

Ltd. one of the leading town planners and real

estate developers in the country. The new

campus will be fully residential for the faculty,

staff and students. It will have the capacity to

accommodate 5,000 students.

The DSU PhilosophyThe educational philosophy of DSU is three

tiered: inculcating relevant knowledge in

students, helping them with their personal

development and giving them a real

professional life experience. This philosophy

makes the DSU experience “a reward for life”.

DSU’s online admissions system, modern

curricula, unique teaching methodologies,

continuous evaluation, online examination

system and an environment that is conducive to

learning make it a progr institution.

DSU believes that no student should be

deprived of education on the basis of his/her

financial status. It therefore, practices a

need-blind policy for admissions, which means

the sole admission criterion for all students is

merit.

Study with our AccomplishedFacultyDSU boasts of a highly accomplished full-time

faculty which is actively engaged in teaching as

well as research activities. Our faculty

members have a vast experience of working for

some of the most prestigious institutions that

are locally and globally recognized in the world

of academia, research and industry. Their

interests include writing research papers,

developing case studies and providing

consultancy services to public and private

organizations. They believe in creation of

knowledge through research and innovation.

Vibrant Student CommunityDSU students hail from widely diverse

backgrounds and they like to pursue a variety

of interests and passions during their stay at

the university. Our students take keen interest

in various activities ranging from Model United

Nations, Sporting Events, Naat Competitions,

Math Olympiads and Programming

Competitions both at home and overseas.

LearningDSU is a university where learning and acquiring knowledge is the core business. During the process of

learning, human faculties of curiosity, understanding and communication are fully activated. At DSU, we

uphold the view that learning is a layered and ongoing process.

DiscoveryThe spirit of curiosity forces the human mind to find reasons for why and how things happen in the natural

world. This leads to an effort to discover or research for finding answers to questions that arise from

observation of the natural world. Discovery or research is only possible after some learning has taken place.

Discovery may need quantitative and qualitative analytical skills which are developed in the students as part

of the learning process at DSU.

DiversityDHA Suffa University promotes diversity and opens its doors to all persons regardless of their gender, religion,

social status, color, caste and creed. DSU is committed to recognizing and appreciating the variety of

characteristics that make individuals unique. It promotes and celebrates individual and collective

achievements.

DHA Suffa University is an equal opportunity institution with no discrimination on the basis of status,

gender, language, religion, region, color, caste or creed. There is no quota for admissions and

employment. Merit is the sole criteria for admission, employment, academic and career progression. DSU

encourages and facilitates students from rural areas, financially constrained families and foreign countries

to study on open merit.

FaithFaith, in general, means confidence or trust in a

person or entity. However, for DHA Suffa

University, faith specifically means confidence or

trust in the Almighty Allah, the creator of the

universe. Faith in the creator is the foundation of

all good human values. It establishes the vital link

between the creator and the creation. All faiths

promote peace and love. DHA Suffa University

also upholds the view that faith and reason are

not mutually exclusive. True faith must exhibit

itself through action. However, we must not

comment on another person’s faith under any

situation.

CharacterCharacter means knowing the difference between

right and wrong and having the courage to do the

right thing. The University lays great emphasis on

character building. DSU firmly believes that

Character is accumulation of thoughts, values,

words and actions. It is established by long-term

conscientious adherence to moral values. Efforts

by parents, teachers and others to instill these

values are important, but ultimately, character is

both formed and revealed by how one deals with

everyday situations as well as extraordinary

pressures and temptations.

To become a globally recognized institution of higher education and research, which would extend the

frontiers of knowledge and contribute significantly in nation building.

Vision

To achieve higher standards in teaching, learning and research for becoming a world renowned

academic institution.
