Welcome to the Aga Khan University, a role model for health and education in the developing world. For more than 30 years, AKU has been making a difference in the developing world by enabling outstanding men and women to realize their true potential. In each of the six countries in which we operate, we are: Training Leaders - Because a single leader can have an enormous impact, we equip our graduates with the expertise, practical skills and entrepreneurial outlook needed to lead change in their societies and to thrive in the global economy.
Embodying Excellence - In places where resources are scarce and few institutions are effective, we meet the highest quality standards and demonstrate that excellence is a powerful force for transformation.
Discovering What Works - One of the developing world’s leading sources of health and education research, we are creating new knowledge that saves and enhances lives in some of the world’s poorest places.
Serving the Community - Our prize-winning and influential Urban Health Programme, which has significantly improved life in squatter settlements in Karachi, is just one of many examples of our community service.
Empowering Women - Half our faculty and three of every five AKU students are women. Moreover, our leadership in maternal and child health research is internationally recognized. Providing girls and women with opportunities to thrive will always be one of our top priorities.
Fostering Pluralism - Through our scholarship, curricula and admissions policies, we build respect and understanding across cultural, religious, communal and national boundaries.
Always Connecting - AKU has a long record of partnering successfully with other institutions, and goes out of its way to forge connections between the private and public sectors, the developed and developing worlds, cities and villages, ideas and faiths.
Planning for the Future - In the age of the knowledge economy, great universities are more indispensable than ever before. To equip promising young people for success, we will introduce new undergraduate liberal arts programmes and graduate professional education in both East Africa and Pakistan.

One of the top universities in the country. Offers admission according to merit to only the brightest students. Teaching is on par with international standards. Hostel is also pretty good with strict discipline. The only drawback is its too expensive and unaffordable for the masses.

The Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH) is affiliated with the Aga Khan University in Karachi and was built in 1985. The medical center offers a diverse range of healthcare facilities all under one roof. It also promotes a philosophy of promoting human welfare by providing the people with a sound knowledge and awareness of the latest medical systems and health care benefits that need to be taken advantage of for a healthy lifestyle. It is one of Pakistan’s largest private institutions.

I graduated from this university in 2004 with wonderful memories. My deepest gratitude to his highness, prince Karim and the Ismaili community for providing the Pakistani population with such a world class institute. It is a pride for Pakistan.
