The University of Karachi is making headlines with its latest academic reforms, decided during a council meeting led by Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Khalid Mehmood Iraqi. The meeting brought some significant changes that are set to improve the university’s education system and introduce fresh opportunities for students.
One of the major decisions is the introduction of semester-based exams for degree programs at affiliated colleges. This shift will affect programs like the Associate Degree in Arts (ADA), Associate Degree in Commerce (ADC), and Associate Degree in Science. Each subject under these programs will now graded on a 100-mark exam. What’s different this time is that Karachi University’s Examination Department will handle the entire process, including marking, to maintain consistent standards.
Another exciting development is the launch of a four-year Bachelor of Science (BS) program in Artificial Intelligence. This program will offered by the Department of Computer Science, focusing on one of the most sought-after fields today.
These changes reflect Karachi University’s commitment to staying relevant in a fast-evolving educational landscape. Students now have more structured systems and advanced study options, paving the way for academic excellence.
For current and prospective students, these updates promise better organization and a wider range of academic paths to choose from. It’s clear that Karachi University is stepping up its game, ensuring its programs match the needs of today’s competitive world.
