Chairperson Message

The Center for Associate Degree Programme, The Women University Multan, has been established in 2021 with a two-fold approach: to offer quality post-intermediate two years Associate Degree in a wide range of academic disciplines, and to serve as a central point of liaison to facilitate the communication and correspondence between the affiliated

institutions offering Associate Degree and the relevant academic departments of WUM.The Center for Associate Degree Programme at WUM has been established with a future-oriented vision to meet the demand for a skill-based education incorporated into the syllabi of undergraduate academic degree. As it has been launched as an alternate to the Bachelors of Arts and Bachelors of Science degree programmes, so the practical aspect of learning has been particularly focused upon in the designing of syllabi in all disciplines. We offer internship programmes in almost all categories.

Although the Associate Degree Programme is a newly-launched initiative at WUM, but the response to this initiative has been heartening to say the least. We have so far offered admissions in Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 semesters and have received an enthusiastic response in all categories.

The administrative and academic team at the ADP Center is fully committed to facilitating the students in their curricular and co-curricular ventures. We have an excellent academic faculty involved in the teaching process comprising of dedicated permanent WUM faculty and adjunct faculty with rich and diverse research and teaching experience.

It is hoped that the students graduating from the ADP Center will leave their mark in the society as useful members and will contribute skillfully to the development of the nation. In case of any query, the Center can be contacted at adp@wum.edu.pk.
