Addressing the press conference, Dr Zafar Mueen said key performance indicators (KPIs) would be developed for monitoring performance which will be communicated to all units.

He said that under the supervision of the vice chancellor, assessment surveys would be conducted at the end of every academic year to audit performance of each academic unit.

He vowed that administration, finance and academics sectors of the university would be improved.

He said the administration would ensure that teachers impart quality education to the students for increasing their productivity and polish their talent.
