Dear Student,

Welcome to Allama lqbal Open University, the first Distance Education University in South
Asia, that caters to the educational needs of 1.3 million students to enable them to study at
their own place, at their own pace and at their own convenience. The University goes to the
doorsteps of the students, irrespective of the distance and location of students. One can
become a student of this university at any age as we consider education a life-long and
continuous process. The University has a vast menu of educational programs at different
levels, starting from basic literacy program to the PhD program. The courses are regularly
revised in order to keep them contemporary, relevant, and internationally compatible. Self
explanatory course material helps the students to comprehend the course concepts without
physical presence of the teacher. The self-assessment activities, included in the books, help
ensure the acquisition of earning outcomes. This university offers maximum number of specialization at post-graduate level
through four faculties - Faculty of Arabic and Islamic Studies, Faculty of Education, Faculty of Sciences, and Faculty of Social
Sciences and Humanities. The faculty members at the university and a huge network of tutors, resource persons, specialists and
experts make sure that the courses being offered in these programs enable the students to become independent learners and
critical thinkers. Post-graduate level studies invite you to critically examine what has already been done in your field of interest
and then research to offer innovations.

I welcome you to the postgraduate studies at AIOU and wish you a challenging yet successful journey ahead.

(Prof. Dr. Shahid Sddiqui)

Vice Chancellor, AIOU
