As so rightly said by Ama Ata Aidoo: “the best thing about memories is making them”.
I am so glad that I joined this academia, not just for the knowledge I acquired here but for giving me challenges, mentors, batch mates and memories of a lifetime. The best thing about Iqra University is that along with theoretical classes, we were always given chances to explore the practical side of the learning through projects, activities and corporate visits.
Now, when I look back, I realize that IU has played a vital role in the early success of my career as by all these activities and projects, the two key things that they helped us learn were teamwork and collaboration, which surely are the essence for growth in corporate life.

Designation: Deputy Manager HR
Organization: Dollar Industries Pvt. Limited (Stationery Manufacturers)
After detailed research, I chose Iqra University to be my alma mater because I was convinced that the MBA program at Iqra University possessed the type of content that I needed to carve my path as a future leader in the field. The biggest advantage was to learn from PHDs who had proven knowledge and skills, in addition to that, most of my professors were professionals and entrepreneurs who used to come after work to teach us and channelize their knowledge and wisdom.
In addition, high-quality guest speakers were also invited during each course to share their real market experiences. This let me build my professional network, which in the future created better opportunities for me, as well as the Job Fairs conducted every year for the students. Iqra University has one of the best libraries in Pakistan, and the research work done here in the supervision of PHDs is of international quality. Iqra University had a lasting impression on my personality and career.
Currently, I am in a role where I am leading a section, mentoring my subordinates, helping the business to progress and gaining the experience which I need to reach my career goals, and I thank Iqra University for that!

It was a great journey of studying at Iqra University. The MBA program was elaborative, interesting, and practical to my work needs. Both the faculty and administrative staff were welcoming and helpful, and I gained so much more than I expected. Studying at IU was a great choice – it is an amazing city where wonders are created with dynamic moves. There are many things beyond your imagination, but finally, you will find you are the reason these miracles are happening. Studying in this place enabled me to widen my horizon and reinforce my vigour. When I look back to the good old days in IU, I feel so thankful and miss the people and my friends so much.
Abdul Mannan
Studied: MBA, HR
Attended: Batch of 2012, 2018
Designation: Manager Human Resources
Organization: Hashwani Group of Companies
My experience as a both graduate and postgraduate student in the Iqra University prepared me well for my role where I am today as a Manager Human Resources in Hashwani Group of Companies.
Iqra University was really attractive because of the hands-on experience. Where students were able to visit different companies for projects and learn about company cultures and how they work, it has helped to complement my profile in a significant way and increase my personal and professional potential.
The entire experience has been so exhilarating, the most valuable thing that I would like to highlight about the Iqra University is the excellent quality of its human resources; both the teaching and its administrative staff, always ready to assist and guide students throughout your degree program as well as post completion.
After writing this, it is ever more superficial to me that the journey is not over now; graduation is not the end, it is only the end of the beginning…!!
