follow a career path in food and nutrition. "Our curriculum covers every aspect
of life including science as well as the arts. A Home economics degree helps
young girls a lot and it teaches us many things which we can utilise at
professional as well as domestic level." Just as hospitals offer
internships to students of the MS programme, many textile factories as well as
other establishments offer internships to Home Economics graduates, she
said. Second position holder Wajiha Jamal also evinced interest in the
field of food and nutrition. She also expressed the need for the government to
increase funding to Ra'ana Liaquat Ali Khan Government College of Home
Economics. "The electricity of the college remained suspended for several months
due to non-payment of bills," she said. If the authority concerned paid
attention to such issues, students could better focus on their studies. "We do
not have gas connections so we had to use gas-cylinders, which are dangerous as
well as expensive. Teachers managed the refilling of the cylinders from the
college funds, there should still be a proper gas line," she stressed. The news
