HEC Chairman suggests to set up Pakistan and Oxford windows  

Chairman Higher Education Commission (HEC) Dr. Mukhtar Ahmed has suggested setting up a ‘Pakistan Window’ at the University of Oxford and an ‘Oxford University Window’ at HEC to facilitate the Pakistani students and researchers for availing different opportunities and programmes at the University of Oxford.

He gave the proposal while talking to a delegation of the University of Oxford and Oxford Pakistan Programme (OPP) during their visit to HEC Secretariat in Islamabad.  

Dr. Mukhtar Ahmed assured the delegation of HEC’s support in increasing access of Pakistani students and scholars to the University of Oxford. He said HEC will facilitate institution-to-institution collaboration in academic and research areas.  

Principal Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford University, Prof. Stephen Blyth, hoped that the efforts of HEC to develop university-to-university collaboration will help increase access of Pakistani students to study at Oxford.
