Our vision is to be a pre-eminent academic institution, serving as a catalyst for economic prosperity and social development with a focus on management of resources. We strive to achieve this vision through our teaching and research activities that are nationally and regionally relevant, and meet the highest international standards.

Our institution is distinguished by the quality of our students, faculty and staff. We admit students purely on the basis of merit through a very transparent and competitive process. We aim to attract students who possess the requisite intellectual caliber, desire to excel, stamina for hard work, and a commitment to self-development. Our pedagogical approach is highly interactive and student centric that promotes intellectual development, appreciation of social responsibility and team spirit. We have put in tremendous efforts to provide world class educational facilities and a faculty that is not only competent and current in their respective areas but also thoroughly committed to the development of students.

We also remain committed to ensure that no one admitted to our academic programs is prevented from joining LUMS due to financial constraints and we continue to offer generous financial assistance to those who need it. In order to enable all segments of our society to benefit from LUMS programs, we have launched a National Outreach Program through which we are seeking out talented students from all over the country, especially those from the less privileged backgrounds and less developed areas, with the objective to guide and mentor them for applying to LUMS programs and meeting our admission standards. We have also initiated dedicated efforts to provide the needed financial and social support to these individuals.

As an institution of higher learning, our accomplishments can be measured by the placement of our graduates and the research output of our faculty. Graduates of our MBA Program continue to be sought by the leading local and multinational organizations. Our BSc graduates have not only been placed at some of the top companies but have also been admitted into Masters and PhD programs in some of the top universities in US and UK including Cambridge, Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, Oxford, Stanford and Yale.

We continue to strive to offer world-class academic programs that are relevant and meaningful in the context of our society and heritage. Our goal is to ensure continuous improvement and development of our existing programs and offer new programs that help us achieve our overall vision and mission.
Our commitment is to provide students a challenging learning environment to enable them to prepare for a rewarding and fulfilling career in their chosen fields. At the same time we endeavour to inculcate a sense of social responsibility through all of our programs. If you are looking for an intellectual challenge, I encourage you to apply to LUMS.
