4 Summary
The philosophy of LUMS SSE curriculum is to impart essential knowledge of science and provide them with engineering tools so that they are able to build their independent thinking and solve problems faced by humanity. The students shall be able to grasp the concepts and apply them in their real life. LUMS SSE Graduates are expected to excel in industry and academia alike. Their analytical skills along with their ability to perform to their best shall be at its finest. The overall objective of the SSE Curriculum is to give impetus to the inquisitive nature of the students so that they are able to perform independent research. The structure or the SSE Curriculum is summarized below. The first year of the SSE curriculum is highly focused on teaching fundamental concepts of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computing, and Engineering. Second year exposes the students to fundamental courses of their respective majors while continuing with the SSE core courses. In their third year students are able to experiment with different elective streams of their interest in their major area of specialization. The aim is that by the fourth year the students are brought to a level where they are able to do independent research of exceptional quality. The students are also required to take courses to meet the University requirements. These courses are designed to provide the SSE Graduates soft skills, impart critical thinking and inculcate social responsibility. All the courses are defined in credit hours. The student load for each credit hour of a taught course is defined as one hour of class room teaching accompanied by a two hour of out of class work, where as for one credit hour of lab work a student is expected to spend three hours in lab. A minimum of 130 credits are required to be completed for graduation. These requirements are divided as: University Core of 28 credits, SSE Core of 40 credits, and Major requirements of 62 credits. The Major requirements are further divided into Major Core requirements, Major Electives and Free Electives. In the proposed SSE Curriculum the number of Core and Elective credits required by each Major are: Mathematics 55 credits, Physics 51 credits, Chemistry 56 credits, Biology 53 credits, Computer Science 57 credits, and Electrical Engineering 58 credits. Highlight of this report include: University Core Requirements SSE Core Courses Major Core Requirements Major Elective Requirements Free Electives SSE Service Courses

4.1 University Core Requirements

The University core requirements are of 28 credits. These are suggested by the University Undergraduate Program Committee through the University Registrar. These required credits are divided into three categories of courses. In the first category there are three specific courses: Writing and Communication, Islamic Studies, and Pakistan Studies. In the second category one course is to be taken either from History, or from Philosophy, or from Literature satisfying Humanities requirements. For the remaining third category at least three courses are to be taken from outside of the SSE group. These include courses from Economics, Accounting and Finance, Social Studies, and/or Law. The objectives of the University-wide core requirements are manifold. Apart from fulfilling the regulatory requirements of the Undergraduate Curriculum as recommended by the Government of Pakistan through Higher Education Commission (HEC) the University-wide required courses ensure uniformity in imparting a breadth of knowledge in the areas of humanities and social sciences. The objective is to develop critical thinking and impart social awareness and responsibility among LUMS graduates.

4.2 SSE Core Courses

LUMS SSE provides an integrated education that not only gives the students a sound training in their professional fields, but also develops their intellectual breadth, character and physical wellbeing. Over the course of the 4-year program, all undergraduates are required to take courses in science, mathematics, technology, humanities and social sciences. The foundation of the SSE curriculum is a strong science and mathematics core that is required of all majors. The SSE shares the belief that for a young person to grow into a first-rate scientist or engineer, his/her education must be founded on a broad and thorough understanding of the workings of nature. Today, this understanding is derived from physics, chemistry, and biology with mathematics as the common language of modeling and prediction. This core also prepares students for interdisciplinary modern research by blurring artificial boundaries between disciplines, helping students recognize and exploit connections between different branches of sciences and engineering. Thus most of the freshman (first) year courses and some of the sophomore (second) year courses are required of all majors. They offer a well-balanced mix of theory and original state-of-the-art laboratory experiments. The SSE core courses are of 40 credits divided into the following: Mathematics 15 credits, Physics 13 credits, Chemistry 5 credits, Biology 4 credits, and Computing 3 credits.

4.3 Major Core Requirements

Every major within SSE is required to specify a set of courses required to complete that respective major. These set of courses can range from a minimum of 30 credits to a maximum of 48 credits. For each SSE major these are proposed as: Mathematics 33 credits, Physics 36 credits, Chemistry 47 credits, Biology 40 credits, Computer Science 45 credits, and Electrical Engineering 41 credits.

4.4 Major Elective Requirements

Each major is required to offer a set of elective courses from a given set of streams. A student is allowed to take a minimum of 9 credits from this category, but not exceeding 24 credits. For each SSE major these are proposed as: Mathematics 22 credits, Physics 15 credits, Chemistry 9 credits, Biology 13 credits, Computer Science 12 credits, and Electrical Engineering 17 credits.

4.5 Free Electives

Apart from some required and elective courses from their respective majors of choice, students can take free elective courses from other majors within SSE. Again these courses are limited to a minimum of 9 and a maximum of 24 credits. For each major these are divided into: Mathematics 9 credits, Physics 12 credits, Chemistry 9 credits, Biology 9 credits, Computer Science 9 credits, and Electrical Engineering 9 credits.

4.6 SSE Service Courses

SSE service courses are those courses that are offered by SSE faculty to the rest of the university students. A number of courses are defined in this category and may change in due course as and when need arises.
