The Academic section falls under the supervision of the Academic Services Group - they are responsible for assembling the curriculum, making class schedules, and appointing teaching staff for Undergraduate, Post Graduate, and Doctoral Studies.

History

On 1 April 1957, the College of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering was established at Quetta as EME School. In 1969, EME School was given the status of a college and civilians were also admitted. In 1981, a BSc program started at EME and a few years later in April 1984, EME moved to its current location in Rawalpindi from Quetta. From 1984 to 1993, it was affiliated with the University of Engineering & Technology, Lahore.

In 1977, the polytechnic institute at Peshawar Road, Rawalpindi, was closed down by Gen Zia-ul-Haq, and was converted into EME College.

In 2003, EME received ISO 9001-2000 certification. Its Ph.D. program started in 2006.^[5]

Student achievements

The Devrim II is the first-ever hybrid car in Pakistan, designed and fabricated by students of the National University of Sciences and Technology, Pakistan (NUST), in 2010. In 2012, students from the Department of Mechanical Engineering recorded a 72 km/L mileage for a road-acceptable mini-car at the Eco-marathon held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The "Lipton Talent Hunt" contest organized by Unilever in 2013 was won by students of the Electrical Engineering department.^[7] In 2019, Team Pagri participated in the Agriculture Robotics Competition in China and stood second on a national level.

In August 2019, a startup called Respond.io, with offices in 4 different countries, with the Department of Computer Engineering as the CTO, along with two other co-founders from El Salvador and Canada respectively - raised $1.8 million (USD) to fund the development and innovation of their eponymous SaaS-based business messaging platform used by more than 40,000 organizations worldwide.^[8]
