 DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
The Department of Mechanical Engineering has the distinction of being one of
the oldest disciplines since the time when this institution came into being in the
year 1923 as “Maclagan Engineering College”. For quite some time, running of
the Bachelor’s Degree Program in Mechanical Engineering has been the priority
of the institution to meet the local requirements of the country.
In the year 1961 when this institution was upgraded to an independent
Engineering University, Master’s and Doctorate degree programs in Mechanical
Engineering were introduced.
At present, the Department of Mechanical Engineering is successfully running the
following postgraduate programs, in addition to its well established under
graduate program.
• M.Sc. Thermal Power Engineering
• M.Sc. Mechanical Design Engineering
• Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering
Award of an M.Sc. degree in Thermal Power Engineering or M.Sc. degree in
Mechanical Design Engineering will require successful completion of eight theory
subjects of the related field of study; and research thesis.
The course contents of the both Master’s degree programs have been revised
and are applicable from the session starting from September 2006. The courses
offered also fulfill the needs of any registered Ph.D. scholar to study topics
related to his Ph.D. research work.

Research Activities
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is engaged in a number of research
projects of theoretical, experimental as well as computational nature. The main
areas of research include power generation, turbo machines, heat engines, heat
exchangers, exhaust emissions, pollution control, fuels for automobiles, energy
conservation and renewable energy resources. The research areas also deal with
CFD (Computational Fluids Dynamics) modeling of engine flows, fuel sprays
formation, fuel spray-wall interaction and flows across aerodynamic
configurations.
Besides Unigraphics / Solid edge, a number of licensed computer softwares such
as Auto desk Inventor, Matlab, Pro-Engineer, CATIA, Maple, ANSYS, Fluent and
Adams have very recently been added to facilitate the post graduate students to
carry out quality research projects in the related field of study.

 DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGICAL ENGINEERING
Geological Engineering is a relatively new discipline and University of Engineering
and Technology, Lahore introduced it for the first time in Pakistan, in collaboration
with the Mining Engineering Department in 2001. In view of the national demand and
popularity of the degree programme, an independent department Geological
Engineering has been established since January 2006 in its own building.
A bachelor degree in Geological Engineering is the basis of careers concentrating on
the interaction of humans and the earth. Geological Engineering deals with a wide
variety of the resource and geotechnical problems that come with accommodating
more and more people on a finite planet. Foundations for surface structures such as
dams, buildings, roads, under-ground structures i.e. tunnels, shafts and caverns
must be properly evaluated, stabilized and monitored. Groundwater and water
supplies not only properly located but also developed and contaminated sites are
characterized before cleanup. New energy resources must be located and
developed in an environmentally sound manner. Geological Engineers are the
professionals trained to meet these challenges.
The curriculum of Geological Engineering programme has been designed keeping in
view the local needs and international trends. In the first two years the essential
concepts of basic sciences and engineering are taught to give students the required
breadth. The last two years of the programme are designed to give the students the
necessary skills in the following three main areas.
• Rock Engineering and Geo-mechanics (Engineering Geology, Rocks
Mechanics, Soil Mechanics, Excavation Engineering, Slope Stability, earthquake
Seismology and Risk Assessment)
• Ground Water and Environmental Science (Groundwater Systems,
Environmental Geology, Hydrogeology , Geological Aspects of Hazardous Waste
Management)
• Exploration of Natural Resources (Geological Exploration, Petroleum Geology,
Well Logging, Drilling Engineering, Seismic Data Processing and Interpretation.)
Key Research Areas
• Characterization of water quality • Water flooding protection in
• Mechanical Excavation and Non- underground mining
explosive rock fragmentation • Geotechnical Instrumentation

programme in Petroleum & Gas Engineering since 1999 and plans to start the
Ph. D. in Petroleum Engineering as well.

The Master in Petroleum & Gas Engineering is a two-year part time programme.
Besides completion of the required courses, the students have to carry out
comprehensive research projects related to the practical industrial problems.
These projects strengthen the technology support for the industry.

The department has a highly qualified faculty. In addition to the regular faculty,
the department has a number of prominent petroleum engineers on its list of
experts who can be invited as visiting teachers, research advisors and
examiners. The research interests of the faculty include Reservoir Engineering,

 SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE
The Department of Architecture is a major department of the School of
Architecture and Design. It was established in 1962. It has the distinction of
being the first in the country to offer a bachelor’s degree in Architecture. The
Department, thus, has been the fundamental contributor towards the founding
and establishment of the profession of Architecture in Pakistan and maintaining
its leading role in further higher programmes of Architectural education. These
programmes include Master of Architecture (M.Arch) Master of Philosophy (M.
Phil) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D).
The Master’s degree programme in Architecture was instituted in 1990. The
M.Arch is primarily a taught course though the research content is also
significant. Both options of courses, one year full time and two year part time,
are offered. Ever since it began, students from all over the country as well as
from abroad have shown keen interest to obtain admission. The M.Arch students
have carried out comprehensive research projects related to various aspects of
our built environment and architectural heritage. The projects help understand
hitherto unexposed aspects of our built environment and propose innovative
solutions. The M. Phil and Ph.D. courses are by research only.

The department has a highly qualified faculty. At present six of the eighteen
faculty members hold Ph.D. degrees. Another two are reading for the degree of
Ph.D. In addition to the regular faculty, the department also invites a number of
prominent architects and other professionals from the field as visiting teachers,
members of jury and examiners. Most of the faculty is also involved in research.
The research interests of faculty include architectural heritage of Pakistan,
conservation of historic built environment, energy studies, planning and design
for disaster-prone areas, housing and urban studies.

In addition to above, a fully equipped departmental computer laboratory has also

been set up to meet the academic and research requirements. The department
is also working to establish a Centre for Architecture in Pakistan, which will focus
on studying the past, present and the future trends for the development of built
environment in Pakistan.

The working environment within the Department is pleasant and intimate.

Contributing factors towards which are the small number of admissions each
year and a high teacher student ratio. The department also offers a pleasant
working environment for girl students. The tradition of co-education in the
department spans over three decades and recently the proportion of girl
students has been more than fifty percent.

The postgraduate programmes offered are meant for mature architects. It is

generally expected that architects who wish to join these programmes have had
- 50 -
significant professional experience and that they have developed an interest in
some particular aspects of the built environment which they wish to explore
further. It is hoped that these programmes will help, develop the culture of
research and enquiry beyond the realm of academic world, and will thus
contribute towards the maturity of the profession of architecture in Pakistan.

The general objective of the courses in the Department of Humanities, Management and Social Sciences are to offset the
narrowness of perception and outlook that results from early specialization in a technical field. The department offers
courses in such disciplines as Communication Skills, Industrial & Engineering Economics, Project Management,
Concumer Behavior, Marketing, Economics for Planners and Management subjects. Since engineers are responsible
members of commercial enterprises and technical associations of a relatively high caliber, these disciplines help them to
perform better in their job assignments and become high acheivers in their respective fields.

English is the medium for all technical and scientific disciplines in Pakistan.The department offers courses in
remedial English and Technical Report writing. The department also offers a course entitled Ethics and Pakistan
Studies especially designed for Non-Muslim students, who take it up in lieu of a compulsory course that is Islamic &
Pak Studies.
 DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES
The engineering curricula in the University are supplemented with courses in Islamic Studies. These are meant to
appraise the students of the cultural, political, economic and other aspects of Islamic Ideology, to make them realize the
richness of their heritage and enable them to be not only competent engineers but also staunch Muslims.

Courses Offered
For the realization of these objectives the subject of Islamic studies was introduced in the University as an optional
subject in 1961. In the subsequent years, due to its importance the subject was made compulsory for all the Muslim
students and its scope was progressively enlarged. Now the department teaches Islamic Studies to the Engineering
classes as well as Architecture and City & Regional Planning.

In 1982 the Government of Pakistan prescribed Pakistan Studies as an essential component of the syllabi at all levels of
education. Since then the Department is teaching this subject also.

Research and Other Activities

The teachers of the department are engaged in writing research papers and articles on the socio-economic problems of the country
and their solutions.
