Virtual University Chancellor’s Message

Quality education plays a crucial role in the socio-economic development of a country and its people. It not only helps in building character but also provides the human capital required for research, innovation, growth, and overall national development. Inclusive and equal access to higher education is equally important as it paves the way for economic and technological progress.

Pakistan’s education sector faces a significant challenge of inadequately qualified faculty to meet the demand. A practical solution to this issue is the efficient use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools while ensuring high education standards that are recognized internationally.

The Virtual University of Pakistan is a leading institution that uses ICTs to provide quality education to students across the country, including those in remote areas and the Pakistani diaspora abroad. Its education approach is highly flexible, allowing students to study at their own pace, and providing opportunities to nurture their skills and abilities.

The Virtual University of Pakistan is contributing to the promotion of education in the country. It is expected that the university will maintain its commitment to providing top-quality education and research in the future.

I wish this institute all the best in its future endeavors

Dr. Arif Alvi
President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan
Chancellor, Virtual University of Pakistan
