Acting Director

It is a unique honour and privilege to be the pioneer Director of Area Study China, which is part of Confucius Institute Islamabad at National University of Modern Languages (NUML). Formally inaugurated in Spring 2018 and 1st batch of under graduate program commenced in Fall 2018, which has now grown into a full-fledged degree program having MoU with Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) for 2+2 program. When fully operationalized, the department will also organize seminars, conferences and produce research publications on the areas of mutual interests, covering wide ranging subjects of bilateral relations. In this context, my priority will be to further enhance the existing academic collaboration between the two universities and eventually further the bonds of friendship between Pakistan and China.
