My dear students
I am fully convinced that you are the future architects of
prosperous Pakistan. If you want a thriving Pakistan then it has to
be a knowledge based Pakistan. You therefore enter the University
to seek knowledge and leave to disseminate knowledge. In today's
world high
stexpectations and demands are placed on the centres of higher
education. The 21 century calls for new approaches to learning,
innovative thinking, the acquisition of specific knowledge not just
about the discipline that they belong to but also about the
environment, health and citizenship, and the promotion of ethical
values and attitudes. In our rapidly changing and interdependent
world, the universities not only have to ensure that students
acquire solid skills in basic subjects, but also that they become
responsible local and global citizens, at ease with new
technologies and able to make informed decisions about health, the
environment and other local and global challenges. Going glocal is
the recipe to international peace, harmony and prosperity.
Furthermore, remember one thing; education and all its forms crown
those who cultureth her. Character building is an important aspect
of education. It is our social capital. Strength of character
includes faith, discipline, tolerance, patience, sharing, caring
and compassion. Development of these qualities in our institutions
will help us reduce trust deficit and intolerance which exist in
our society today.
Let us therefore, work together to build knowledge based
prosperous Pakistan.

The City MultanMultan, the city of saints, has been a center of
learning, culture and civilization for centuries . It is one of the
oldest living cities of the world. Its original name as described
by Hiuen Tsang, a Chinese traveller, who visited the city in
October 641 A.D., was Mu-lo-san-pu-lu, which is believed to be a
translation of Mulasthana-Pura. Al-Beruni, who came to South Asia
in 1015 A.D. alongwith his Master Sultan Mahmud Ghaznavi, writes
about the town as Mulatana. He visited Multan the same year and
recorded that Multan was originally called Kasyapapura, then
Hansapura, then Bhagapura, then Sambapura and then Mulasthana. Sir
Gen. Alexander Cunningham, after conducting excavations in the old
fort in 1853 A.D. and 1864 A.D., further adds to these names those
of Prahladapura and Adysthana. The first recorded event in the
history is the invasion of Alexander the Great in February 325
B.C.
Several other important historians visited Multan including
Masudi (915 A.D.), Istakhri (951 A.D.) and Ibn Batuta (1334 A.D.)
and they all wrote about the social, cultural and educational
activities in Multan. Multans importance has always been
acknowledged and it has always maintained its distinguished and
honorable position among the cities of this region.
The city (740 ft. above sea level) is located almost in the
center of Pakistan. It is at a distance of approximately 950 km
from Karachi and 630 km from Islamabad, right on the main highway
and about six kilometers from the mighty Chenab, in a bend created
by the five confluent rivers. The vast plain of Multan Division is
dissected by rivers, canals and narrow water channels, forming an
ideal agricultural base for the economic development of the
region.

The UniversityMultan has always remained a centre of excellence
in education. Hazrat Bahauddin Zakariya (1172 - 1262 A.D.), a
Muslim religious scholar and saint, established a school of higher
learning in theology in Multan; where scholars from all over the
world came for studies and research. Multan has maintained its
central position and centuries old cultural heritage and therefore
suited ideally to become a center of learning. Thus the University
of Multan was established in 1975 by an Act of the Punjab
Legislative Assembly. To pay homage to the Great Saint, the name
was changed from University of Multan to Bahauddin Zakariya
University in 1979.
The University is located at a distance of 10 km from the city
center. The main Campus is spread over 960 acres of land. The
University has a fleet of 28 buses and 3 coaches which provides
transport facilities to students and staff. The University started
functioning in 1975 in rented buildings with 8 departments.
Presently, it has more than 30 departments/institutes/colleges. Out
of its 523 faculty members, 175 hold doctoral degrees and among its
around 14,000 students, half are female.
The University offers a wide range of programs: M.A., M.Sc.,
MBA, M.Com., MCS, M.Phil, and Ph.D. Additionlly, in recent years,
the University has taken a lead in introducing 4-Year Undergraduate
programs in Science, Commerce, Business, Pharmacy, Engineering, and
English Literature and Linguistics. Various short-time courses and
diplomas have become popular with the general public and are
offered from time to time.
The University is widely known as an institution of strong
performance and high ambition because it has continued to
make excellent progress toward its goals. It plays a significant
role in developing indigenous human resources through its highly
productive achievements, both in sciences and humanities.
The University through different phases has made tremendous
progress, but some recent developments are remarkable. To promote
the activities of art and culture, Multan College of Arts was
established in 2003. In order to cater the needs of textile
industry, which is a major industry of the area, the University
College of Textile Engineering was established in 2004. The
University has also established three sub-campuses at Sahiwal, D.G.
Khan and Layyah to provide education facility at the doorsteps of
the people as part of the policy of the Government. Steps have been
taken to establish the University's linkages with the community and

through a network after the completion of the computerization
process.
