Govt Post Graduate College (W) Gujranwala

The academic programs at the college aim at imparting interdisciplinary knowledge, a broader vision and a critical awareness of current problems. A generation of students have come to this institution, studied here and left with, what we have, as our internal motto inscribed in our college logo,” know thyself”, an awareness of their potentialities ,going onward on the path of life, searching for new horizon. It is a matter of pleasure for me to congratulate new students in anticipation of their admission to Govt. P/G college for (W),S/town, Gujranwala seeking an educational institution not only to discipline their sensibility but also to refine their vision and graduate to maturity. They are going to shine as stars on the skies of the world as leading scientist, economist, bureaucrats, politicians, and professionals in whatever field they chose. Introducing the 4-years(hons.) degree is a major challenge for higher education institutions in Pakistan.

It is well known fact that 2-years Bachelor Degree clearly lagged behind, both qualitatively and quantitatively in the international academic world and the job market, where 16 years of education leading to graduation is required.In order to produce graduates with quality education at par with international standards, the Govt of Punjab has decided to introduce the 4-years(Hons.) degree program at all the most recognized and prestigious colleges of the Punjab. Govt.P/G college (W) s/town GRW being one such institution has not only accepted the challenge, but has also envisaged it as an opportunity to realize its vision of higher education in its disciplinary and interdisciplinary dimensions. I welcome the new entrants to this old seat of learning, which has become a center of excellence for female education in Gujranwala. I am sure they will have a comfortable stay at their alma –mater and will make every effort to benefit from the excellent faculty and adequate facilities provided by the college.
