Vice-Chancellors Message
Dear Student,
Welcome to Allama lqbal Open University, the First Distance Education University in South
Asia, that caters to the educational needs of 1.3 million students to enable them to study at
their own place, at their own pace and at their own convenience. The University goes to the
doorsteps of the students, irrespective of the distance and location of students. One can become
a student of this university at any age as we consider education a life-long and continuous
process. The University has a vast menu of educational program at different levels, starting
from basic literacy program to the PhD program. The courses are regularly revised in order to
keep them contemporary, relevant, and internationally compatible. Self explanatory course
material helps the students to comprehend the course concepts without physical presence of
the teacher. The self-assessment activities, included in the books, help ensure the acquisition of earning outcomes. This
university offers maximum number of specialization at post-graduate level through four faculties -- Faculty of Arabic and
Islamic Studies, Faculty of Education, Faculty of Sciences, and Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities. The faculty
members at the university and a huge network of tutors, resource persons, specialists and experts make sure that the courses
being offered in these programs enable the students to become independent learners and critical thinkers. Post-graduate level
studies invite you to critically examine what has already been done in your field of interest and then research to offer
innovations.
I welcome you to the postgraduate studies at AIOU and wish you a challenging yet successful journey ahead.

provided necessary guidance by their respective tutors.

Moreover, the university has established full time study
centres, wherein the students of MBA (IT), MBA (Banking
and Finance), BS (CS), BS (Chemistry), BS (Micro Biology)
etc. are being provided instruction, guidance and
counselling through face-to-face education. AIOU is
offering four year under graduate degrees.
Allama Iqbal Open University, a Mega university was

established in 1974 under an Act of Parliament. The main
campus of the university is situated in sector H-8,
Islamabad. It was the second open university of the world
and the first of its kind in Asia and Africa. The aim of
establishing AIOU was to provide affordable and
accessible education through distance learning at the doorsteps to those people who could not continue their
education journey through formal system of education.
AIOU operates on semester system and admits students in
Autumn and Spring semesters. Under graduate admissions
are offered in both the semesters where as post graduates
programmes are offered once a year. The enrolled students
are given course books specially prepared by the university
on self instructional principles. However at post graduate
level reprints of foreign books, allied material with
university prepared study guides help students to polish
their skills.
Apart from curricular and extra-curricular activities

during the academic year, the AIOU and its regional centres
actively participate in the co-curricular activities by
arranging educational and literary seminars, workshops and
conferences, attended not only by the students and faculties
of the university but also by the renowned dignitaries and
scholars. For the science students and research scholars, a
science complex has been built where they use the latest
equipment of international standard for experiments and
research. To meet the present day challenges internet facility
is also available in the student's hostel and the Central
Library where computers have been provided to enable
students to access latest information available through open
source databases.
At present, the AIOU is offering programs from

Matric to PhD level in diverse disciplines comprises of four
faculties. The university has established study centres
across the country, where distance education students are
addition, there are many labs for practical work, teaching and
research, and instrumentation labs for analysis.
FACULTY OF SCIENCES
Faculty of Sciences forms an important and integral part of the
university. Since its establishment in 1982 with five teaching
departments, it has undergone major development changes. It
now comprises nine teaching and research departments which
are offering courses at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels
to more than ten thousands students. The Faculty operates under
the basic guidelines of the University Act and on Education for
All as Convenient basis so that maximum students get benefit
from its academic programs and educational facilities. This
principle has necessitated some structural changes in the nonformal mode, particularly at the postgraduate level, in the
offering of theory courses and practical lab work.
This conceptual adjustment has been quite successful
and many of its in-service students are benefiting from
the postgraduate study programs. Improvement in qualifications
for a better life is a right of everyone and the Facultys programs
meet this challenge by offering opportunities to all. In particular
a significant number of beneficiaries are those who cannot afford
education in formal institutions due to a variety of reasons.
Two Model labs have been developed in the Research Complex

with the assistance of the Higher Education Commission to meet
the training needs of science teachers. This development is
significant for training of teachers since under the new
educational policy four-year BS program has started in
undergraduate educational institutions.
More than fifty highly qualified full-time faculty members are on
the roll of the Faculty of Sciences. Their role in the planning,
designing and development of courses to meet students needs is
vital. Faculty members also engage in imparting and supervising
of instructions so that high standards are maintained. In addition
highly qualified and experienced professors are also engaged on
contractual basis or as part time instructors for postgraduate
study programs. The Faculty is also offering academic positions
under the tenure-track system to attract the best minds in
scientific and technological fields.
Research is an integral part of the postgraduate study programs
leading to MSc, MPhil and PhD degrees in Agricultural Sciences,
Chemistry, Computer Sciences, Home and Health Sciences,
Physics, Mathematics and Statistics. Rules and regulations
governing the postgraduate study programs are those approved by
the Higher Education Commission (HEC).
Realizing the importance of science education and growing needs of

the Faculty of Sciences, the University has completed a building,
the Research Complex, at a cost of Rs 35 million. The Research
Complex now accommodates departments of Agricultural Sciences,
Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Sciences, Home & Health
Sciences, Mathematics & Statistics and Physics. These departments
are running a variety of postgraduate technical, scientific and
professional programs successfully. The Research Complex also
has a Computer Lab with Internet and On-line Library Facility for
literature survey, Seminar Room, Lecture Hall and Library. In
The Faculty has also launched BS program in Chemistry and

Microbiology from semester Spring 2009. The four-year BS
program is structured according to the recent policies of the
Higher Education Commission for the improvement of the
standard of education so as to bring it at par with the
international standards.
Multimedia Centre and Open Learning Institute of Virtual

Education (OLIVE) have been established at AIOU. In addition
to research activities in the area of software engineering
communication, networking, and multimedia, the department
focuses on the e-learning research in instruction design,
communication, course management, e-assessment, and other
related areas of e-learning.

The course of all level courses have been designed and updated
recently after consulting syllabi of national and international
universities. It helps to strengthen the statistical concepts and the
logical thinking to our students.
DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS
Introduction:
The Department was established in 1988. Initially, Computer
Science and Mathematics were also its part, then in November,
1999, Computer Science was established as an independent
Department. Similarly, in May, 2014. The Mathematics
Department was also announced as an independent Department.
At the beginning, the Department introduced various programs
of Computer Science along with a variety of Mathematics and
Statistics courses.
The mission of Department of Statistics is to advance the
frontiers of statistical science research in both theory and
applications; to provide learning environments that produce well
educated statisticians; to join with others in bringing the
strengths of the statistical sciences to address the needs of the
