Air University, Islamabad, is one of the good universities of the country. It is relatively new as compared to some of the old universities of the country. The buildings are new and well planned. It is situated at the foot of the lush green Margalla Hills. There are plenty of pine trees even in the university campus. Lawns are neat and clean, providing a conducive environment for teaching and learning process. a spacious masjid is available with toilet facilities adjacent to the car park near Administration Block of the university. A market for shopping is also situated in the university campus.

I am proud to say that I am a graduate of Air University. Its still a new institution as compared to other old institutions. But how the university has grown in size and faculties in such a limited time, its appraisable. I still remember when I enrolled in the university back in 2004, it was only the 2nd year of the institution and not many facilities were available that time. But now I feel proud to see the university name among the top engineering universities of Pakistan.

Within a short span of time, the Air University, Islamabad became famous all over the country for its excellence in various disciplines of engineering and other sciences. It is located adjacent to Bahria University, Islamabad near King Faisal Mosque, Islamabad.
