Peshawar Islamia College upgraded to university level
Peshawar, Dec 05: The upgrading of the historic Islamia College to the status of a
full-fledged university was announced at the general body meeting of the Senior
Alumni Association here Tuesday.
NWFP Governor Lt Gen (retd) Ali
Muhammad Jan Aurakzai, who himself is an old Islamian, made the announcement and
renamed the historic institution as the Islamia College University (ICU).
The meeting was largely attended by old as well as new Islamians besides
the students of newly-established girls section of the college.
"The
Islamia College Peshawar stands upgraded to a university," the governor
announced.
Aurakzai said that Islamia College qualified in all respects
to be made a university and all the procedures for upgrading the college to a
university level had been considered. He announced an initial amount of Rs 500
million for the creation of the university.
"It has been the long
cherished desire of everyone attached to this prestigious institution, which has
materialized today," he said.
Caretaker NWFP Chief Minister Shamsul
Mulk, Provincial Minister and Chairman Senior Alumni Association Azam Khan and
Islamia College Principal Prof Nisar Mohammad Nisar were also present on the
occasion.
The governor said that the college had covered a lot of ground
during the preceding years. He made a special mention of the proposed Islamia
College at Swabi, saying that it would be constructed on the pattern of the
Islamia College, Peshawar. "The building will be the same, the layout more or
less will be the same and even the names of the hostels will be the same," he
added.
Aurakzai said that land for the college at Swabi had been
acquired and funds were being generated. He hoped that the construction would
start in June next and an amount of Rs 200 million had already been allocated
for the purpose.
The governor also announced Rs 2.5 million for grant of
different scholarships to students of the Islamia College Peshawar and its girls
section. These include 50 scholarships – 35 for boys and 15 for girls – Rs 0.7
million for the Senior Alumni Association scholarships and 100 scholarships for
students from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas studying in universities
and institutions anywhere in the country. The News
Sorry Islamia College Peshawar, You are no more unique
Prof. Yaseen Iqbal
Islamia College Peshawar was established in 1913 as a unique
institution to educate the people of the province. These were the times when
modern education used to be considered a great sin by the so called illiterate
Mullas; however, the founders of this unique institution were also unique and
were so sincere with the people of this land that they laid down the foundation
stone of this College at the hands of Haji Sahib of Turangzai who was leading
the holy war (Jihad) against the British rulers. Even the British, being
sympathetic with this institution or the people of the region didn't block the
way of Haji Sahib because they knew that without Haji Sahib's involvement this
institution will be a complete failure. Well Done Islamia College Peshawar! You
produced great graduates and stood unique for the last 95 years at undergraduate
level but unfortunately when I look at you today, I cannot compare you with
Government College Lahore of nearly the same age. Government College Lahore was
not fortunate enough to have the blessing of Haji Sahib of Turangzai, no
Sahibzada Abdul Qayuum Khan was there to water its plants, no generous Pukhtuns
gave it hundreds of acres of their lands and probably no Muhammad Ali Jinnah
inherited his one third of property to GC Lahore but still this great college
produced Nobel Laureate like Abdul Salam. Yes, Government College Lahore you are
unique but unfortunately Islamia College Peshawar could not be unique. It is at
the same level as it was 95 years but education needs of the day have changed
too much. Yesterday, we needed education but today we need research and that as
well compatible with our modern day needs.
Let me shed some light on the reasons
why Islamia Collge Peshawar could not be made unique instead of its enormous
financial resources and blessings:
1. Lets presume that may be the people of
this land are not interested in making there institutions unique. If this is
true, then why these people send their kids to various institutions in spite of
their poverty and very limited resources. They split their only living home into
two, sell the one half to educate their kids and live in the other half. This
clearly proves that the people of this land are not fools but sensible 21st
century's human beings with all the five senses in place but unfortunately
helpless to ask for their due rights and hence suffer whatever comes on their
poor heads. After complete disappointment from their institutions, a
considerable number of our youth prefers admissions in other provinces or has
migrated to the outside world and doing odd jobs with the hope for a better
life. It must be noted that this is not the solution and a person thrown out by
his/her own society can never earn respect from others.
2. The second reason
could be the lack of vision of our leaders and literate and privileged class to
design and run our institutions consistent with our needs and available human
and natural resources to optimize their utilization. This vision can not only
create jobs for the people but can play a pivotal role in improving the economy
of the land as well. In order to explain this let us have a look at the world
around us and learn from them the manner in which they developed their
societies: In the modern world, the living standards, honour and dignity of both
the individual and society are judged in terms of ranking in the field of
science & technology and the resultant economy. Countries of the world are
categorized, in fact, into "Developed", "Developing" and "Under-developed". The
masses of the under-developed nations don't have the skills, resources or
ability to utilize their resources and their leaders lack a clear vision to
develop their societies. On the other hand, the developed nations have developed
their institutions to exploit their manpower, natural and technical resources.
They have the vision to manipulate their present and future needs and the needs
of their fellow beings and nations. Their leaders have the wisdom to design and
run their institutions to exploit their resources. This clearly means that for
economical survival and development, a nation must have
a) the vision to foresee
their present and future needs
b) the knowledge to manage her natural/mineral
resources and
c) the technical capability to design and produce affordable
products. Keeping the above requirements in mind, one can easily understand the
causes of poverty in the 'under-developed' and 'developing' nations, and the
reasons for prosperity in the developed world. USA was a leading member of the
G7 countries (now G8) but when realized that it must give special preference to
dedicated research in specific hot areas of applied sciences: consequently, the
U.S. National Science Foundation established Materials Research Science &
Engineering Centres. The goal of these centres was to develop the areas of
science & technology exponentially which could directly transform the
scientific ideas into visible market and accelerate the economical growth and
benefit the society. Today, the Pennsylvania State University alone has 24 such
centres. Similar examples, either in one form or the other can be observed all
over the world such as China, India, UK and Japan.
The resources we have are not
ordinary but extraordinary and is called the mineral wealth. The importance of
these resources can be judged from the fact that various eras marking the
developmental stages of human history such as Stone age, Bronze age and Steel
age are defined in terms of the materials used or developed during those
periods. Today, it has become extremely difficult, if not impossible, to draw
solid lines among various disciplines of science and engineering as
semiconductors, physics, chemistry, polymers, cement, metals, ceramics,
composites, biomaterials and tissue engineering are studied and investigated
under the one roof of the Materials Science. Broadly speaking, the engineering
of materials deals with the designing of chemical compositions and controlled
processing to tailor materials with desired properties. Keeping in view the
mineral resources of Pakistan, given proper attention, the field of materials
Science certainly seems to have a bright future not only for the people of NWFP
and Pakistan but for the surrounding regions as well. The upgradation of Islamia
College Peshawar to University Level were really good news for all of us but do
we need to repeat what we already have. If we are interested in developing
another photocopying machine of teachers, then we have enough of it. A
postgraduate degreee can be awarded by any postgraduate college or a couple of
rooms with a few master degree holders as faculty members.
Islamia College has
been unique at undergraduate level and must be unique at postgraduate level. As
it led the province in undergraduate education, it is expected to play a similar
at postgraduate level. It should not be an ordinary university but a unique
institution. The new Islamia College University should be able to address the
issues in hand and make our education compatible with our needs and available
resources. Every government is shouting big slogans of the richness of our land
in mineral resources but none has establish a single institution to
systematically and scientifically characterize and optimize the utilization of
these resources. The establishment of an Institute of Materials or a Materials
University instead of an ordinary degree awarding body or a photocopying Machine
of teachers would have been a really great step towards the prosperity of the
region. This Institute or university would have systematically characterized the
explored minerals and initiated intensive research on engineering of the
available materials into useful products to optimise their utilization. Such
developments would have automatically attracted industry because without a
strong academia-industry linkage, the development of science & technology
has little impact on the society. Unfortunately, I don't see anyone interested
in such activities. A strong linkage between the Academia and Industry of a
country is the key to optimize the utilization of natural, mineral and technical
resources. It is the only way to transform the mineral resources into
world-class products in accordance with national and international consumer
needs through materialization of the innovative ideas and research findings of
the academia. This university-Industry linkage is missing, particularly in this
part of the country. Joblessness, non-technical approach to technical issues,
poor industry and lack of technical manpower are some of the consequences of
this missing linkage. A highly technical Institution would have been a key to
impress our industry to share mutual knowledge and expertise. Our mineral
resources are second to none, our manpower is talented and hardworking but the
problem is the lack of coordination and synchronization of these resources and
availability of sophisticated laboratories to suit the needs of research and
modern day industry. A world class Materials Research Institution is the only
way out. The Way Out It is an established fact that the introduction and
consequent development of the field of Materials Science has already changed the
pace of industry and economy in the developed world. Obviously, today, the
future of our industry and academia will become ever more dependent upon the
quality of our research and ability to innovate. At present, we urgently need
Materials Research Institutes in NWFP and it must be brought to the level to act
as world-class institute on a priority basis. The basic set up should include
material processing kits, phase & micro-structural analysis equipment and
property measurement kits. This institution need to be appropriately staffed and
equipped with facilities consistent with our industrial needs. The staff
diversity in terms of scientists/engineers in the relevant disciplines, are
urgently required. As evident from the preceding description, our mineral
resources need proper characterization to optimize their utilization. Our
manpower needs proper technical training to process the raw minerals and utilize
them in the production of compatible products. All this will need the
development of S&T on a priority basis. Unfortunately, we don't have
Materials Research Centres/Institutes which have processing, phase,
micro-structural analysis and property-measurement laboratories in Pakistan and
such an Institution will be unique and will make Islamia University Unique. We
need to be more practical with clear target-seeking strategies. The file culture
needs to be replaced with trust-based alternatives where quick decisions can be
made.
A national campaign is required to stimulate both our academia and
industry to look for improved ways of working together to ensure that the
training of our graduates and research scholars meets the challenges of the 21st
century such as innovation in industrial and academic sectors, and addressing of
the issues regarding the conservation of energy, environment and health. We are
not the only nation undergoing this conflicting experience but most of the
nations including Europe and USA went through these experiences and we must
learn from their technological history, realize the problem in the real sense
and step forward before it is too late. The upgradation of Islamia Collge
Peshawar to University provided us with a golden opportunity to make our
education in accordance with our needs and available and I was to present the
same proposal to the Governor and Chief Minister NWFP but my Keynote Talk was
excluded from the Schedule at the 11th hour, excusing that the Honourable
Governor will be short of time and it is not possible. This is enough for me to
believe that every sincere effort is discouraged in this land. I hope the people
involved will realise the situation and will not allow the unique Islamia
College Peshawar to loose its uniqueness. F.P

"In the last few years the college made great achievements like up gradation to University, Swabi branch and girls section thats why I dont think that Govt College Lahore is unique in Pakistan, in my opinion Islamia College is Unique in the country. And I am confident to say that we can make this institution unique in the Asia and even throughout the world if our countrys Leaders specifically Leader of Pukhtunkhwa pay attention to it. I hope the administration and teachers of the institute will keep up their good work in making this institution unique at undergraduate and postgraduate levels as it is at Intermediate level. "

"Every one know & admitted & have 2 admit that Islamia College was/is/vl the Outstanding & leading College of the Country as vl as of the world. I remain n Islamia as vl as n University Of Peshawar , so I know ( every one ) about Islamia college vry vl. (I like it 2 Much...2 Much......) But I never consider the Islamia College & University Of Peshawar as different Institutes . (I thing up to now all students & peoples consider it same) & actually it is one & same Institute a part of each other .............. 2 B very frankly today it separated due to politics present n faculty & staff ... I think it vl not as fruitful as we consider ..... if the administration sped these money in Islamia college as vl as n University of Peshawar, thn v can achieve a big goal but any way the they ( means... ) don't care about that , they looking 4 thr own benefits only.
I don't think that there are two Universities require exactly at same place.... I don't know ,,,,, I don't think so.... If any one want 2 establish Islamia University, there z a lot of other places were one can establish Islamia University.
Sorry, & u can give comments on my discussion ..... Welcome. Javed Ali, University of Glasgow,UK ."

"I became really very happy after hearing that Islamia college has been upgraded to the university level because I have the honour of being the student by myself as well as my father of this great institute of learning. I have my B.Sc in Bio sciences(Chem+Bio) in 1995. After my M.Sc from Gomal I joined PCSIR Labs of Pakistan(peshawar) as SO in 2000. After serving there for about 4 and a half year I got admission in PhD in QAU Islamabad in Organic chemistry after qualifying for HEC indigenous fellowship. Now I am at the university of Bristol UK for six months fellowship again after qualifying another HEC fellowship. I am fan of Islamia College not only for its very high stanadard staff but also for its very very impressive environment.I do hope that the Institue will be well equipped with all the required facilities in all fields of research/technology within a few years.I always pray for institues like this one to be able all the time to convey the message of success in both the worlds to our people."
