Vice Chancellor's Message
|
| |
| Esteemed
Colleagues and Friends of LUMS,
LUMS has been enriched by the commitment
and dedication of many people, especially
the members of the board and the faculty,
and it is now ready to assume an even
greater leadership role in national
and international education and research.
The well-deserved reputation of LUMS
as a premier educational institution
provides a solid foundation for the
future. Working together, we can make
LUMS an outstanding example of hope,
opportunity, and knowledge for all.
I am honored and delighted to have been
chosen to lead LUMS, and I deeply cherish
the thought of returning to contribute
to higher education in the country of
my birth. |
|
|
|
| |
| In my view
the three leaves of the famous LUMS insignia
stand for a core of institutional excellence,
high-quality education and research, and leadership
beyond the boundaries of our campus: |
| |
- At the center is the core of institutional
excellence, which includes all the facilities,
services, and policies that produce a positive
climate for learning and growth. These we
must strengthen. To increase effectiveness
we will review and streamline the university
functions. Important initial groundwork
on a transparent governance structure and
other important policy matters has already
been done. We will finalize and implement
these initiatives as soon as possible.
- On one side is learning and research,
studying the wisdom of the past and discovering
new understandings in the disciplines. Ground-breaking
research expands our own knowledge, but
it also enables us to engage disciplinary
communities beyond the university and across
the world.
- On the other side is the branch of civic
and international engagement–leadership
beyond the boundaries of our campus. We
must be a part of economic development and
growth of Lahore as well as engage in its
rich civic and cultural activities. We must
always remain open and willing to collaborate
with those who are committed to excellence
in education, to other research groups nationally
and regionally, and to institutions committed
to solving crucial economic, social, and
environmental problems.
|
| |
| Implicit in
our vision of a flourishing institution is the
promise that here at LUMS every individual can
reach his or her full potential and make a valued
contribution to the university and to society.
LUMS needs all of us, every scholar, teacher,
staff member, groundskeeper, and each student–among
many others–to work toward our goals,
to suggest better ways of achieving them, and
to help build a unique learning community. |
| |
| I foresee
a marvelous future for LUMS that we can achieve
together, and I urge all alumni, faculty, students,
board members, and friends of LUMS to join me
in this exciting endeavor. Your careers and
this campus will flourish as together, we turn
this fertile ground into a university of high
values and vital knowledge so critically needed
for the well being of our society. |
