    Dr. Zafar Yusuf
    CEO Evercare Hospital
  • My four-year journey at LUMS taught me the importance of persistence and self-belief in making the impossible possible, a motto that continues to be an integral part of my life. I was fortunate enough to study from some highly experienced and competent teachers who continue to inspire me to date. Despite majoring in Accounting and Finance, I got the chance to take courses from other disciplines such as languages, law, and computer science, an opportunity one rarely gets elsewhere.

     

    Ubaid Ullah Azam ACF' 20
    Audit Associate at PwC Pakistan
  • The Master of Science in Supply Chain and Retail Management programme at SDSB will develop a new breed of strategic leaders who shall manage these complex supply chains to achieve goals of delivering high quality, shorter lead times, mass customisation and innovation at lowest possible costs. I strongly recommend this programme.

     

    Mr. Ahsan Umar

  • I am very excited to be a part of the MS in Financial Management programme as Executive in Residence. We at SDSB aim to educate and train the best of the next generation of financial managers in Pakistan with this modern, rigorous and practical programme. I look forward to developing and deepening the academia-industry linkages that this programme demands, and not least, mentoring and guiding the students.
