Welcome Message
I welcome you all to the Institute of Space Technology, an institution where
innovation is cherished, new ideas are welcomed and academic brilliance is
aspired.
For more than ten years, IST has taken giant leaps in the field of space science
and technology. Initially, IST aspired to be a breeding ground for competent
engineers. However, thanks to the unwavering efforts of all stakeholders, the
institute is now proud to consider itself a major contributor to Pakistan's
development in all sectors of academics and technological fields.
After yet another successful year, IST now ranks fourth amongst the
Engineering and Technology universities of the country according to the Higher
Education Commission of Pakistan which is a clear indicator that our persistent
WELCOME MESSAGE
efforts and uninterrupted growth is more than likely to take us to the summit
of engineering excellence in Pakistan.
In terms of taking an institution to a path of sustainable success, a decade is
not necessarily a lot of time. However, IST has achieved all this only because
the staff and faculty work in unison to provide a great learning experience to
the students. Apart from making our students sound professionals of tomorrow, we also ensure that they are well-
versed in day-to-day administrative issues which they will face in practical life. For this purpose, we also encourage our
students to participate in various programs where there management skills are tested and honed with time.
In today's world, an institute can never rely on its own strengths at all times in order to continue blossoming.
Knowledge is meant to be shared and ideas are meant to be discussed. Therefore, we have successfully established
linkages with some of the most prestigious universities, research institutes and industries around the globe. This also
helps give students a hands-on experience of what it is like to be on the field. Working with some of the most brilliant
minds of the era further enriches a student's experience.
With such a holistic approach, our students, once they have graduated, end up acquiring all the necessary credentials
and skills that are sought by employers around the world. We consider it our prime responsibility that our graduates
enter practical life equipped with the knowledge and skill required to survive and do their part in shaping the future of
research and development.
All courses taught at IST are in line with international standards and aim to develop critical thinking and analytical skills
among the students. Backed by a dedicated and highly qualified faculty, state-of-the-art facility give students all the
tools necessary for them to stay relevant with the continual technological advancements.
With an ambitious, dynamic and friendly environment for all the students and the staff, IST is
home to the future of the country, a future in which technological advancement and academic
brilliance promises to put Pakistan on par with other nations.
IST welcomes you to this growing community of students, faculty and staff who are working in
close collaboration to achieve personal and collective milestones which promise to shape the very
Vice Chancellor
fabric of our society.

Rawalpindi, named after Raja Pindi, is a city bustling with life. It is located on the
northern most part of the Punjab province, strategically located between the
Khyber Pakhtoon Khwa and Azad Jammu & Kashmir. It is also known as the twin
city of Islamabad. It is the military headquarters of the Pakistan Armed Forces and
once served as the nation's capital while Islamabad was being constructed in
1960s. The city is home to many industries and factories with historical buildings,
bazaars, vast parks, chilling winters and hot summers, Rawalpindi has proven its
status as a MUST visit place.

delightful place especially for the residents of Islamabad. Its altitude is 2,300
m (7,500 ft) above sea level. Murree is a place for all seasons; in summers it
is an ideal place to beat the scorching heat of the twin cities and a beautiful
hill station to enjoy snowfall during winters.

Culture. Most of the archaeological sites of Taxila (600 BC to 500 AD) are
located around Taxila Museum. For over one thousand years, when the
Buddhist era touched its glory, Taxila remained famous as a centre of learning
for Gandhara art of sculpture, architecture, education and Buddhism. Today,
Taxila is an archeologist's paradise with over 50 archaeological sites scattered
in a radius of 30 kms around Taxila. Also a museum, comprising various
sections with rich archaeological finds of Taxila has been established close to
the site. It is a popular destination with tourists visiting from all over Pakistan

knowledge construction is increasing exponentially and
is compelling all disciplines to branch into
specializations.
In this milieu the Institute of Space Technology,
Islamabad, was established in September, 2002 with the
focus on the progression of scientific approach and of
critical thinking rather than singularly concentrating
upon the encyclopedic and academic knowledge. At IST
we believe that the new analytical ways of thinking and
the new mental approaches are more vital than the new
knowledge to attain a significant transition to progress in
the society.
The Institute offers undergraduate degrees in Aerospace,
Avionics, Electrical, Mechanical, Materials Science &
Engineering and Space Science as its core disciplines.
The Institute acquired its degree awarding charter in
October, 2005.
