Welcome to Forman Christian College (A Chartered University). You are about to discover an extraordinary community that is characterized by its learning environment, diversity, excellence in service and commitment to its values of discipline, justice and respect.
Our students come to FCC for various reasons; chief among them is the quality of education we provide. The University is ranked... as a W-category institution by the HEC. Our values of commitment to excellence and service to community have remained strong throughout our 152- year history, just as our academic plans have expanded to include 22 majors at the Baccalaureate level and 15 Postgraduate programs that meet international standards.
Our continued recognition as a center for excellence speaks for the students that study at FCC, the quality of our graduates and our faculty, and the research we conduct. We place special emphasis on building an inclusive community that produces an environment that is safe and friendly and makes education a joy for everyone.
Our campus boasts beautiful buildings and grounds, but apart from that, you will find that there is a wide range of activities going on at FCC. No matter which region you come from, we promise you a variety of eye-opening experiences.
The mission of Forman Christian College (A Chartered University) is to impart, create and disseminate knowledge and to develop informed, ethical and responsible citizens who are prepared and committed to learn, lead and serve; persons who exemplify the FCCU motto, “By love serve one another”.
The vision of FCCU is to be recognized as one of the very best educational institutions in the entire subcontinent. This is in keeping with the distinguished reputation established during the first century in its life.
Enriched with the enduring qualities of a liberal arts education, FCCU seeks to graduate students who are well-prepared for success in their careers. Through the major field of study selected by the student, he or she will receive a basic knowledge of a particular field in enough depth to be successful in entry level positions in a career and to advance successfully to increased levels of responsibility on the job. However, it is impossible to predict what a person will need to know for success on the job twenty years from now, but we do know that in most jobs new knowledge will have to be mastered that does not even exist today. Therefore, it is more important to learn how to learn, how to think, how to solve problems, and how to communicate effectively rather than just to focus narrowly on the content of an academic discipline. The educational program is designed to help students develop these skills.
In the early years, degrees were awarded through the Calcutta University. College level instruction was interrupted in 1869 due to the illness of key faculty members. College classes resumed in 1886, with degrees being awarded through the University of the Punjab. In 2004, FCCU became a chartered University and from 2009 onwards has awarded its own degrees.
FCCU has been a leader for the development of curriculum among the universities of Pakistan. Through the years the college introduced into the curriculum such subjects as the Sciences, Economics, Psychology, Geography, Technical Chemistry and Sociology.
FCCU also has a distinguished record of performing service for the nation. At the time of Independence, the college converted two hostels into a hospital for refugees seeking medical assistance and thus began United Christian Hospital.
In 1972 the college was nationalized by the government. It was returned to the present owners of the college on 19 March 2003. In March 2004, the government granted University status to FCCU. The University embarked upon an exciting new stage in its history in September 2005 when it began a four-year Baccalaureate (Honors) program designed in accordance with world-class standards for accreditation.
FCCU is an HEC-recognized, W-category University. It currently has 6,347 students, 220 full-time faculty members with over 100 PhDs, and over 21,700 registered alumni. The University offers Baccalaureate and Postgraduate programs. The 4-year Baccalaureate Honors program, started in 2005, offers an American style, world-class liberal arts education at tuitions that are affordable. New postgraduate programs started with the MBA in 2007 and now include PhDs, MPhils, Masters and Executive education programs in specific disciplines. FCCU’s generous financial aid program and scholarships for deserving students make high-quality education accessible to students from various socioeconomic backgrounds.
