BUITEMS<br />

Quality & Excellence in Education<br />

FOREWORD<br />

Academic growth of a country is the key to economic development<br />

today. It is an accepted fact that a nation which is educationally<br />

more advanced and technically more sophisticated will always<br />

have an edge on those which are relatively lagging behind.<br />

Bringing modern education to the doorsteps of youth, without<br />

putting undue financial strain on the finances of their parents/<br />

guardians is the cherished ambition of all public sector<br />

universities in the country and they are shouldering this<br />

responsibility to the utmost in comparison with the financial/<br />

material resources being provided to them by the government.<br />

6th Convocation<br />

The three educative domains of good institutions of learning are<br />

(i) cognitive domain where more and more knowledge is gained by<br />

the learners (ii) Inductive domain where they build up their<br />

capabilities to apply the learnt knowledge for the solution of<br />

personal and professional problems and (iii) the behavior domain<br />

which prompts them to go for peaceful and altruistic living. This<br />

third domain, contrary to general perception, is the most<br />

important one, as the opportunity of getting higher education<br />

with open minds should make the students more tolerant towards<br />

people who hold opinions and values different from their own.<br />

Educated people are, more or less, prone to logical reasoning.<br />

They are intrinsically inclined to follow ethically cleaner paths<br />

instead of being blinded by instincts and emotions.<br />

At the same time knowledge has become the most important<br />

contributor to professional and economic development of nations.<br />

The increasing share of knowledge in the world economy and the<br />

power dominance of the developed countries leave no room for the<br />

developing countries like Pakistan to ignore the three essentials<br />

of the knowledge foundation i.e. education, software development<br />

and research oriented development.<br />

Realizing the paramount importance of higher education, the<br />

existence of a premier institution like BUITEMS in a<br />

comparatively under privileged part of the country, gives<br />

assurance that avenues of personal and national development are<br />

being opened in Balochistan, as well.<br />
