As the knowledge economy rises at a global level, the essential role of technology innovation and entrepreneurship in the economic development of countries is becoming highly recognised. In the MS TME Programme, we actively seek a broad range of industry engagements, including but not limited to joint collaborative ventures, exchange of ideas for commercialisation, entrepreneurial motivation and hands-on training for the right skill sets. I am confident that curating this degree with SDSB will open many avenues for more interesting partnerships. 

The launch of the LUMS MS BPP programme with a duration of 1.5 years provides experienced professionals with an opportunity to take a short break from their careers to polish their skill set and develop and expand their knowledge on policy making and analysis through multiple frameworks and participant-centred learning. With an excellent faculty and a wide range of academic and extra-curricular resources at your disposal during your stay, the LUMS experience is transformational. 

Just like any other person coming out of their A levels, I was anxious whether LUMS was the right choice for me or not. Now, I look back to a delightful journey that has made me who I am today. LUMS is a place where there’s no lacuna of opportunities. If you have the drive to follow your passion, LUMS will provide the platforms to accelerate your growth across every possible realm; be it academics, professional experience, or extra-curricular activities.

In terms of academics, LUMS gives you the opportunity to study a myriad of inter disciplinary courses and build a holistic perspective. As a Management Science student, I have taken courses in programming and political science, apart from a variety of different courses offered at the business school. The diversity in coursework has enhanced my creativity and polished my technical skills. Through various corporate exposure programs hosted by the business school, I got the chance to network and learn from industry leaders, which helped build my business acumen.

The LUMS experience was truly transformational. The case method really helped to develop a structured thought process, honed analytical skills and taught me to develop a very fact-based and unbiased approach to decision making. While those skills and the LUMS MBA degree helped throughout my career, the most valuable part was the people and the friendships built during that period. 

The LUMS EMBA programme opened new avenues of learning for me as I could manage my professional and personal commitments and attend EMBA classes over the weekend. The diverse culture, case study method approach, amazingly talented and experienced faculty and my EMBA batch mates at LUMS helped me acquire knowledge and ideas about marketing, customer service, budgeting, accounting, developing business models, supply chain, asset and resource management, innovation, business law and ethics and managing teams effectively. 

At LUMS, we are surrounded by students and faculty who are passionate about improving the quality of the healthcare system. This passion resonates in the classroom no matter how diverse the audience.
