Institute of Business Administration (IBA), Karachi
IBA is the oldest business school outside North America. It was established in
1955 with initial technical support provided by the world famous Wharton School
of Finance, University of Pennsylvania; later, the University of Southern California
set up various facilities at the Institute and several prominent American professors
were assigned to the IBA. The course contents, the curriculum, the pedagogical
tools and the assessment and testing methods were developed under the guidance
of reputed scholars from these two institutions. IBA has jealously guarded the
high standards and academic traditions it had inherited from Wharton and USC while
adapting and adjusting them with the passage of time. A large number of Pakistani
faculty members received advanced degrees from Wharton and the University of Southern
California.
Till 1994, the University of Karachi awarded degrees to the graduates. In that
year the Sindh Assembly elevated the Institute's status to that of a degree-awarding
institution. A bill is pending in the Assembly for conferring the status of a
University to IBA. Inspite of a rapid increase in the number of business schools,
the IBA has maintained its position as the premier institution of higher learning
in the field of management and business administration.
The IBA initially offered MBA program only for day scholars. In 1957, an Evening
Program was started to cater to the needs of the numerous working executives and
managers who were interested in furthering their careers through part-time business
studies. In 1982, a three-year BBA (Honors) Program was introduced which has now
been upgraded into a four-year BBA program.
The Center for Computer Studies was established in 1983 with the collaboration
of IBM, Pakistan. It initially offered a diploma in system analysis to overcome
a shortage of software professionals in the country. It now offers BBA (MIS),
MBA (MIS) and BS (Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology),
MS (Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology) and PhD programs.
The PhD degree is being offered in the areas of Computer Science and Engineering
(CSE), Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Operations Research, Artificial
Intelligence, Cryptography, Numerical Analysis and Numerical Computing. In addition
a PhD program in MIS/Computer Science and Engineering/ICT has been launched from
August 2005.
The Center for Executive Education offers Executive MBA programs for mid level
public sector, non–profit sector and private sector executives, organizes
customized courses for the corporate clients and holds short courses on emerging
issues and themes for those engaged in business. A new Center for Entrepreneurial
Development is being established and will become fully functional in 2010.
