Universities in Pakistan are playing a very important role in the over all development of the country. Their importance lies not only in providing degrees and thus producing quality human resources for various sectors of the economy, but also in making the youth agents of bringing about socio-economic changes in the country. However University education in Pakistan needs to be revamped for making it accessible and more relevant to the changing circumstances.
There are at present 49 General Universities in the Public sector, 36 Universities in the private sector, 8 degree awarding institutes in the private sector and 18 degree awarding institutes in the private sector. The University education in Pakistan is not accessible to a large section of the population, which is evident from the fact that during the year 2003-4, the percentage of population, between the age group 18 to 23, enrolled in a University of Pakistan was a meager 2.38% (Economic Survey of Pakistan 2004-05 data).
In order to improve the quality of University education in Pakistan, making it accessible and relevant, the Higher Education Commission is undertaking various reforms. The Commission is also committed to making the indigenous universities of Pakistan world-class institutes.
