The Aga Khan
University (AKU) is a pioneering
institution of higher education
whose mission is to improve the
quality of life in the developing
world and beyond, through
world-class teaching, research
and healthcare delivery. AKU
educates students for local and
global leadership from
campuses and teaching
hospitals in six countries,
primarily in Asia and Africa. It
generates new knowledge to
solve problems that affect
millions of people, especially
the most vulnerable. The

AKU is establishing a Faculty of

values. The Faculty of Arts and
Sciences aims to develop
leaders through transformative
education that is endlessly
challenging and intellectually
stimulating — one that prepares
graduates for innovative
thought and consequential
action. The hallmarks of our
graduates will include what we
refer to as the four C's and the
three E's: critical thinking, clear
communication, creativity,
commitment to service,
entrepreneurial outlook,
engagement with pluralism and
ethical action.
