national economy by opening new knowledge corridors for the society and humanity. We warmly
welcome all who aspire to become part of NUTECH community as active members of "Science,
Engineering, Technology and Skills Family" in Pakistan.
5. Vision. To be a world-class technology driven research university committed to best serve
society and industry through purposeful education, research and innovation.
6. Mission. To advance knowledge and educate students in science, engineering,
technologies and other areas of scholarship so as to grow knowledge economy and develop
leaders, professionals and skilled workforce embodied with the spirit of discovery, innovation,
entrepreneurship, social responsibilities and ethical practices to best serve the society and
industry.
7. Why Study at NUTECH? Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) play leading role in
teaching and learning while focusing on knowledge, innovations and technologies for the socio-
economic progress of the society and the country. Since 1947, our universities have reasonably
helped the nation in achieving sustainable growth by producing knowledgeable and skilled
manpower to meet the perceived targets of industrial and societal development. However, in the
given context, there is a dire need for soul searching and formulation of strategies with
implementable plans to achieve the much desired effects of our education system and the HEIs.
8. Discipline at NUTECH. It is the duty of the instructor in charge of a room to see that
order is preserved, and he or she is authorized to exclude any student from the room for sufficient
cause. Such exclusion will be reported to the HoD. Students are expected to behave with decorum,
to obey the regulations of the University, and to pay due respect to its officers. Conduct inconsistent
with general good order or persistent neglect of work may be followed by dismissal. If the offense
is a less serious one, the student may be placed on probation. No student shall be withdrawn from
the University for Alleged Misconduct without an investigation and an opportunity to be heard by
the Committee on Discipline (CoD). Please refer to Discipline Policy for further details.
9. Acts of Indiscipline. Details/description of offence/acts of ill-discipline are elaborately
given in the NUTECH Progress and Excellence Leaders Policy (NPELP), and NUTECH Academic
Integrity Policy (NAIP). All complaints related to academic integrity shall be dealt under NUTECH

Note: Violation of federal /provincial Law(s) or Ordinance will be dealt accordingly as covered
under those laws.
10. Academic Honesty. Instructors’ attitudes toward collaboration vary widely, students are
often confused about expectations regarding permissible academic conduct. Different cultural
values and priorities regarding academic honesty increase the need for clearly stated expectations.
Failure to clarify expectations often contributes to cases of academic dishonesty brought before
the Committee on Discipline. Early in the term, faculty members should clarify, in writing, the
expectations regarding permissible academic conduct. While some expectations are obvious, gray
areas exist where standards vary across subjects and departments. NUTECH Academic Integrity
Policy provides guidance for ensuring responsible academic behavior. It is the aim of the Faculty
to administer the discipline of the school so as to maintain a high standard of integrity and a
scrupulous regard for the truth. The attempt of any student to present as his or her own, the work
of another, or any work which he or she has not honestly performed, or to pass any examination
by improper means, is regarded by the Faculty as a most serious offense, and renders the offender
liable to immediate expulsion. The aiding and abetting of a student in any dishonesty is likewise
held to be a grave breach of discipline. For some students, a particularly troublesome area is the
question of working together on problem sets and other homework assignments. The use of old
solution sets or lab reports presents a similar problem. Because homework assignments have two
roles, helping students learn the material and helping instructors evaluate academic performance,
it is not always obvious how much assistance from old materials, if any, the instructor finds
acceptable. Course syllabi should explain precisely the faculty member’s expectations about the
nature and extent of any collaboration or assistance from old materials they permit or encourage.
If assistance from old materials is permitted, the instructor should be certain that the materials are
available to all students equally. If a faculty member believes that a student has violated accepted
standards of academic honesty, he/she has several available courses of action. For more detailed
guidelines, see the Academic Honesty sections of NUTECH Policies & Procedures. Faculty should
report actionable cases of academic dishonesty to the Office of Student Citizenship. Within each
department, a senior member of the Faculty, such as the department head, should be available to
provide guidance to faculty members and students in cases of academic dishonesty. In addition,
assistant and associate deans in the Office of the Dean Undergraduate Education (DUE), the Office
4
of the Dean Students Life (DSL) will be available for consultation with students, faculty and
department heads.
11. Academic Conduct. By the end of first week of the semester, the faculty member
shall inform students of expectations regarding permissible academic conduct. Particular attention
shall be given to such questions as the extent of collaboration permitted or encouraged, and the
use of prior years’ materials in completing problem sets, lab reports, and other assignments.
12. Attendance Policy. Minimum 75% attendance is must to be eligible for award of a
passing grade as per the policy of regulatory authorities. Students having attendance less than
75% in any subject shall be failed. Attendance shall be constantly monitored/ tracked throughout
the semester. Students whose absence becomes 10% shall be counseled and warned in writing
by the academic advisors or research advisors; and in case of undergraduate students, warning
letter will be shared with student’s mentor. Students whose absence becomes 18% shall be
counseled and warned in writing by the Head of Department; and in case of undergraduate
students warning letter may also be shared with the parents/ guardian of the students. The
attendance will be evaluated on actual classes conducted for the purpose of awarding XF grade.
Exception to this attendance policy is onset of special circumstance like pandemic / country wide
strikes/ any natural calamity warranting closure of university leading to amendments in attendance
thresholds.
13. Disabilities Services Offices for Students. As required under Federal Govt. Rules on
the subject, faculty has to share the university’s responsibility to make a reasonable effort in
providing effective alternative means for qualified students with disabilities to fulfill course
requirements. Specifically, faculty is responsible for working with the student and concerned
Disabilities Services staff to identify and provide reasonable accommodation for academic access
and assessment. As members of the university community, faculty must maintain confidentiality
on a need-to-know basis with regard to disclosure of information related to students with disabilities.
14. Registration
a. Process. All NUTECH students shall be required to register. Students will meet on
or before Registration Day with their advisor (if an undergraduate student) or with
their departmental registration officer (if a graduate student) to discuss subject
selections for the semester term. After conferring, the academic advisor or
registration officer will approve the subject selections. The student will be responsible
