Disappointing State of Affairs
The fact that this year Only 4 Pakistani universities ranked in the top 1000 is disappointing, said Times Higher Education Global Rankings Editorial Director Phil Baty.The low number of Pakistani universities is due to a lack of funding.
However he does seem hopeful that CPEC will turn the situation around,
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor unveiled by Chinese president Xi Jinping in 2013 and now in its first phase of implementation has been touted as a potential way for Pakistan to build the technological capacity of its universities,
He also appreciated the effort by QAU in getting to top 500 despite the tough global competition.
