LUMS -- Lahore University of mis-Management Sciences
Posted by jogii Dec 6, 2003 07:36 am
i was a student of mechanical engineering in college of EME, NUST for three semesters and then i left NUST and came to IBA. the biggest problem that NUST had was they treat the civilians like commissioned cadets too, there are restrictions in NUST, yes. the authorities are very rigid. as a hostelite you cant go out of campus after 10pm, and that too with the written permission of company commander. there was prejudice in NUST. once a civilian does something wrong, hes in for it, but incase of a technical cadet, they wont let anyone know what happened, all the fees that theyre collecting from NUSTians theyre spending on teh Cadets, so there was lots of controversy on these issues.
but theres anotehr side to the picture as well, NUST doubtlessly has the better faculty by far than any otehr institute in the country. i dont know whats teh sourse of ijaz_guls statistics of a student teacher ration of 1-80, its totally incorrect. Let me make one thing clear that EME, MCS, MCE etc are not colleges or universities, these are basically military units. the mechanical, solar and electronic labs, the workshops (automobile, woodworking, welding etc) are all superior to labs in any other institute. they have teh highly skilled staff, and believe me they`re making a good use of it. yes, theres this scarf, dupatta culture, but then male to female ratio is something like one to humdred. what else do u expect to happen.
then theres iba. fortunately theres no such restrictions in iba, hostel is free of any authorities, all departments are under students, no study timings, no dress code ect.
There can absolutely be no comparison between NUST and LUMS or IBA, NUST is a military institute, u cant expect it to be like IBA or LUMS, there has to be all those restrictions and thats understandable.
By the way what extraordinary have LUMS graduates and students achieved living in that ``sans restrictions`` environment? IBA offers more professionalism, all departments such as accounts, hostel management, auditing, sports, conferences, publications, etc are under students. IBA has a much better job market than LUMS, not only in Karachi but all over the country. And thats the reason why i chose IBA over LUMS, it`ll take time for LUMS to get anywhere near IBA, ages i believe!
