The National Management Foundation (NMF), was granted a charter by the Government of Pakistan for establishing the University on March 8, 1985. Through this charter, the University was given the legal right to establish degree-granting programs. In addition to this, the government also granted authorisation to set up other schools under the aegis of the "Lahore University of Management Sciences".

The BSc Honours Program at LUMS was initiated in 1994 and in 1996, the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) was formed to administer the undergraduate programs. The School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) initially housed the Computer Science (both BSc and MS), Economics, Social Sciences, and Mathematics majors along with the Accounting and Finance minor.

LUMS also introduced PhD programs in Computer Science, Computer Engineering and Mathematics in line with its aim to promote research in the country. To date, 10 candidates have obtained PhD degrees in these disciplines. In 2006, a PhD in Management was added to the list of doctoral programs at LUMS, to cater to the growing need of organisational management and operations management experts.

In 2011, two majors were introduced to the undergraduate programs at LUMS. The School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law added a BA History to their extensive list of majors. The Suleman Dawood School of Business started offering a BSc in Management Science to cater to the increased demand of a business major at the undergraduate level. Living up to its commitment of offering new graduate programs, the university added new MS and PhD programs to the portfolio of the School of Science and Engineering in 2012. New MS degree in Electrical Engineering was introduced along with new doctoral programs in Biology, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering, and Physics.
