HEC has developed a number of faculty hiring programs focused to ease the critical shortage of qualified faculty in the public sector institutions of higher education and also to produce fine engineers and scientists across a broad range of disciplines by only hiring experienced pedagogues where ever available, specially expatriates.

In a nutshell, through the Faculty Hiring Program, HEC aspires to bring a positive change in the culture of higher education institutions in all domains of academic activities including development of infrastructure, academic standards, curriculum, knowledge dissemination through refined teaching / examination / grading methodologies, industry-academia linkage, international collaborative research and fine supervisory acumen which results in creation of knowledge. There has been considerable progress in the targeted areas due to the faculty hiring Programs.

The Program will generate linkages between local and foreign institutions, encouraging long-term sustainable scientific collaborations. Foreign faculty members will be expected to supervise world class graduate level research and deliver cutting-edge graduate level courses in their academic disciplines.
