LAHORE: DAWN is organising the 13th annual nationwide Education Expo 2016 at the Faletti’s Hotel in Lahore. The two-day exhibition will open on Tuesday (today) at 11am.

The event is the largest Education Expo to be held in Pakistan, which will assemble leading international and local universities, colleges and higher education institutes, notably from the UK, Australia, Malaysia, Turkey, UAE, USA, Germany, Canada and North Cyprus.

The exhibition is organised with the specific objective of helping institutes of higher learning reach a national cross section of Pakistani students who have the qualifications and means to pursue education in Pakistan or abroad. Faculty, admission officers and career counsellors will interact with visiting students directly on a one-on-one basis.

The event has been scheduled at a time when most participating institutions are enrolling students.

The exhibition will be open from 11am to 7pm on Feb 9 and 10 and entry to the event is free.

A similar event was held on Feb 6-7 at the Karachi Expo Centre. The exhibition after travelling from Karachi and Lahore will conclude in Islamabad on Feb 14.
