Genesis The Punjab Group of Colleges is serving the community with quality education since

1985. Punjab College of Commerce was the first institution to be established by the

Group at Lahore. The Group is continuing to expand its horizons by establishing

branches in various cities of Punjab.

Under the umbrella of the Punjab Group of Colleges, Punjab College of Business

Administration (PCBA) and Punjab Institut of Computer Sciences (PICS) have

emerged as highly specialized business and computer science institutions. Punjab Law

Colleges, Punjab Colleges of Information Technology and Punjab Colleges of

Sciences are some more links to this rapidly expanding chain of colleges.

As a tribute to the name of the Father of the Nation, the Group named its next

ambitious project as Mohammad Ali Jinnah University.

Mohammad Ali Jinnah University is chartered by the Government of Sindh as a

comprehensive institution, authorized to award earned or honorary degrees at all

levels, from Associate to Doctorate, in all disciplines. The University follows the

Semester system of education. It fulfils all the pre-requisites and degree requirements

comparable to any good accredited international university. A number of international

academic evaluation agencies have evaluated our degrees as being equal to a degree

awarded by any accredited international university. The dream to provide quality

education to the youth of Pakistan is gradually being realized with the establishment

of Mohammad Ali Jinnah University, which has two campuses, one at Karachi and

the other at Islamabad.

Mohammad Ali Jinnah University has three focal points in its planning. The first of

course is the range of programs. The University is constantly updating its curriculum

to ensure that it is always in-line with the demands of the time. The programs are

tailored not for the popular market but for the real need of our country's economy and

manpower development.

The second focal point is training. In addition to pure academic programs, the

University runs training programs, seminars and workshops for the University

believes that this is its contribution to development of professional manpower, which

is enriching society as a whole.

7

Finally, the third focal point deals with the University endeavors in Research. The

University is deeply conscious of the fact that research and development are the main

tools countries use to transform their developing economies into developed nations.

The University is investing heavily in facilities, technology and faculty development

to promote research in meaningful and purposeful areas. The University has started

Doctoral level programs in Computer Sciences, Electronic Engineering, and

Management Sciences.

Department of Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics is one of the newest areas of biological sciences. Since the beginning of the 1990s, many laboratories are engaged to concentrate on full genome of several species such as bacteria, yeasts, mice, plant and humans. During these collaborative efforts enormous amounts of data are collected and stored in databases. Besides gathering all these data, it is necessary to compare these nucleotide or amino acid sequences to find similarities and differences. It is not very convenient to compare the sequences of several (hundred) nucleotides or amino acids manually, several computational techniques were developed to approach this problem. In addition, these are less error-prone than a manual approach. Bioinformatics is all about using computing systems to store, manage, and analyze biological information.

BS Bioinformatics This program is designed to produce diversified concepts of Bioinformatics. The curriculum is a well thought out mixture of essential courses from biological sciences, computer sciences and mathematics. Keeping in view the modern requirements, the main focus is not only on biological research, a thorough understanding of divisive concepts such as database, programming and algorithms are also developed. Furthermore, to acquire hands on experience, most of the Bioinformatics courses are supported by projects and labs work. In the final stages of their degree students are also placed in relevant industry as internees to further acquire real life problem-solving skills and gain exposure to the latest technologies in applications. The students are also required to complete a final year project based on either research or industrial problem. The project is expected to have some value to the organization or industry.

A number of general courses in the area of humanities, social sciences, religion and ethics, health & physical education, languages and communication skills are made compulsory for studying with objectives to provide them social, psychological, religious understanding and balanced personality. The overall program provides a highly conducive environment and an excitement driven approach that encourages creativity to accomplish results. Admission Requirements

• Higher Secondary School Certificate or equivalent with Physics, Mathematics/Biology and Chemistry/Computer Science securing at least 45% marks in aggregate

MS Management Sciences The MS program is essentially a research based degree program intended to investigate into and find solutions to the problems besetting our national economy. Two factors contribute to the high quality of research and training of our students: one is a strong foundation in basic topics such as economics, finance, and human resources; the other, a focus on the rigorous analysis of relevant business problems, as opposed to relying on mechanical applications of the latest techniques in modeling or econometrics to the existing literature. Our emphasis on real problems, practical yet rigorous analysis, and commonsense, has played a large role in establishing us as a premier research-oriented private sector university. Specialization areas:

a. Finance b. Human Resource Management c. Marketing
