Government College University Lahore

About government college university lahore.

Founded in 1864 as an affiliate of the University of Calcutta, Government College University is a public university located in central Lahore.

Its gothic central building, built in 1877, still testifies to those Raj-era origins. In 1882 affiliation was transferred to the University of the Punjab. Independent degree-awarding powers were attained in 1997 and full separate university status in 2002. Known until 2002 simply as Government College, it remains "GC" in local vernacular. Alumni, known as Ravians, permeate Pakistan’s elite. Among them are four former Prime Ministers of Pakistan including the longest-serving, Nawaz Sharif, two test cricketers including the leg-spinner Abdul Qadir and two Nobel Prize winners. Hassan Amir Shah, the 30th vice-chancellor, has called it the ‘leading educational institution in the Indo-Pak sub-continent’.

GC offers degree courses, which last four years, in 26 disciplines and advanced qualifications in 24. It has 29 academic departments, divided into faculties of Science and Technology, Engineering, Arts and Social sciences and Languages, Islamic and Oriental Learning. There are five research centres for Chinese Studies, Industrial Biotechnology, Sustainable Development, Advanced Physics and Mathematical Sciences.

The School of Mathematical Studies (ASSMS) is named for Abdus Salam, one of GC’s two Nobel laureates. Salam graduated in Maths in 1946 then returned from 1951 to 1954 as Professor of Maths. His award of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1979 made him the first Pakistani, and the first Moslem, to win a science prize. The other GC laureate was Har Gobind Khorana, winner of the 1968 prize for chemistry.

Best Government Colleges In Lahore

Home » Lifestyle » Best Government Colleges In Lahore

Lahore is a city that is known for its educational institutions, especially those that are run by the government. Some of these were established during the British era, and have since kept up with their prestige through consistently excellent curricula and remarkable co-curricular activities that have produced some of the finest alumni in the country. If you are someone who is looking for good institutions for higher education, then have a look at our list of the best government colleges in Lahore.

Government Colleges In Lahore

These are some of the top government colleges in Lahore, a city that is known for its vibrant culture and rich heritage.

Government College University

GCU is one of the oldest universities in Lahore.

Lahore is known for its red-brick structures. It’s a remnant of colonialism, however, many associate them with a resilient structure of high quality. It comes naturally then that red-brick educational institutions are viewed as impairing high quality as well. Government College (GC) is one such institution. 

GC was opened in 1864 by the British government and had professors from the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, Dublin, and Durham. However, it wasn’t until 1876 that the university was moved to its present location, where it now has more than 12,000 students. While this started off as a college, in 2002 it was expanded to become a university with degree programs being offered at undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate levels. Over the years, GC has produced some of the most prominent leaders of Pakistan, including the Nobel Laureate Dr. Abdus Salam, who has been recognized for their contributions across the world.

This is a research-led university that has about five semi-autonomous research centers:

  • Abdus Salam School of Mathematical Sciences (ASSMS) – study of scientific and technological problems by mathematical methods in mathematical sciences.
  • Center for Advanced Studies in Physics (CASP) – Research and Development in Experimental Physics.
  • Institute of Industrial Biotechnology (IIB) – offers degrees in Biotechnology and Microbiology.
  • Sustainable Development Study Center (SDSC) – Research and Development in Environmental science.
  • Center of Excellence of China Studies (CECS) – offers diplomas in Chinese language and China studies.

The college started off as an institute for boys, however, ever since it became a university, it has introduced a co-education system.

This college was named after Lady Mary Jane Kinnaird, a great philanthropist of her time. It was conceived with the idea of providing Punjabi Christian women with an opportunity to learn and improve their socio-economic well being

However, it wasn’t until 2002, that the college was recognized as the official degree awarding institution. Since then, it has introduced degree programs at undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate levels. Its graduate-level studies are particularly renowned for high-quality research. Ever since June 2011, Radio Kinnaird has also been operating successfully, and informing the student body about all important decisions.

It was a good experience, I studied at Government College University Faisalabad. All the memories I’ve there with friends, teachers and other staff are so good. Our teachers were so helpful and polite towards us. One thing that was missing was educational trips. Maybe now the situation is different because I studied there 2 years back.
