Structure and Functioning. College is functioning under the
auspices of Human Resource Development Directorate of Inspector
General Training and Evaluation Branch, GHQ. The College is headed by
a Commandant and is organized into Academic and Administrative Wings.
The Academic Wing is headed by Chief Instructor who is assisted by
heads of departments and a rich faculty. The Administrative Wing is
headed by a separate office.
Boarding Houses. The students are distributed into five boarding
houses. Each house is supervised by a House Master who is assisted by
House Officers. Houses at MCM are named after martyrs i.e. Sher Khan
House, Lalak Jan House, Aziz Bhatti House, Mehfooz House and Tufail
House (Junior House).
Curriculum. MCM is affiliated with Federal Board and offers
intermediate level education in pre-medical, pre-engineering and
computer sciences.
College Academic Council. Academic Council comprises senior staff
members, headed by Commandant. It is primarily responsible for setting
general parameters, pertaining to educational matters and formulating
plans for their implementation. The council also directs research and
development projects and oversees guidance and counseling.
4
Academic Guidance. An elaborate system of academic guidance is
built within the overall academic training at MCM. Efficacy of the system is
reflected in the remarkable performance of students in the Board
Examinations. The paradigm of the academic guidance rests on regular
classes, extra coaching classes for weak students and time-tested
academic evaluation system.
Assessment. Students’ assessment is carried out through a time-
honoured system of evaluation. The overall standing is determined on the
basis of academic results, conduct and participation in co-curricular
activities and games. A student’s promotion to next class is not
guaranteed; it is granted on the basis of academic performance, discipline
and overall conduct. The final authority, in this regard, rests with the
College and in case of very bad discipline, the student may have to repeat
a year, or leave the college.
Academic Facilities. Conventional classroom teaching is
supplemented with modern training aids as required for each subject. The
College has well-equipped Science, Computer and Language
Laboratories, Audio-Visual Rooms and a rich Library.
5
Informal Education. The perspective on development of a
wholesome and healthy personality goes much beyond mere mustering of
textual knowledge. A broad body of highly-structured ‘Informal Education’
is implemented at the College through a wide array of events and activities
to augment a student’s ethical and moral values, interpersonal and
managerial skills, pastimes and habits, dress and mess etiquettes,
hygiene and health, confidence and character, rights and responsibilities
and correct religious and spiritual learning. The activities also include
prominent guest speakers and educational visits for enhancing general
awareness among the students.
Leadership Training. The College caters for leadership training and
character building of its students. The daily schedule of classroom
instruction, co-curricular pursuits and supervised house routine is
specifically tailored to contribute tangibly towards the grooming of the
students. Training is imparted to the students by giving them
responsibilities especially through prefectorial system at the College and
House levels. Appointments are rotated after a pre-determined period to
spread the leadership training canvas.
6
Co-curricular Activities. A series of co-curricular activities are held
at the College throughout the year. These activities help the students
improve and refine their creative and social skills, broaden their mental
horizon and widen their breadth of general outlook. The Literary Society
established at the College, called Bazm-e-Adab provides a forum where
students express their literary talent and an opportunity is afforded to
them to excel in this field. There is a lot of emphasis on the development of
public speaking skills. To provide ample opportunities to the students for
realizing their potential to the full, clubs at the College functions round the
year. These include Drama Club, Debating Club, Science Club, Fine Arts
Club, Riding Club, Photography Club, Computer Club etc. Movies and
documentaries are screened and social get-togethers are meant to be a
healthy interlude to break the routine.
Physical Training. Emphasis is laid on physical training and sports. All
the students are encouraged and afforded an opportunity to participate in
sports. Inter-House sports competitions and sports fixtures with sister
institutions are also held. Adequate sports facilities are available, like
football and cricket grounds, and basketball, volleyball, tennis and squash
courts. A multipurpose hall with indoor sports facilities with a modern
gymnasium will also be built.
7
College Annual Day. Annual Day includes the much awaited Annual Prize Distribution Ceremony. It is organized befittingly with
requisite pomp and show and is attended by a large number of parents, guests and dignitaries.
