KARACHI, Aug 26: A comprehensive plan is underway for the development of all the departments of the Federal Urdu University for Arts, Science and Technology (FUUAST).

This was announced by FUUAST Vice-Chancellor Dr Syed Iqbal Mohsin.

He was speaking at a seminar organized by the varsity’s Department of Physics.

Dr Mohsin was of the view that without the promotion of higher education and research in science disciplines, the desired results could not be achieved.

A Russian professor Dr Valery Arkan and a professor of King Fahad University, Jeddah, Khursheed Athar Khan, read their papers on the occasion.

The seminar was attended by a number of teachers of the University of Karachi and those of the FUUAST.—APP
