MY MINI WORLD!!!

My university is a mini world for me its “KARACHI UNIERSITY”

Karachi University has a main campus which sprawls over 1,800 acres, a small town in itself. It has 52 departments and 3 faculties, and I am a part of this small world. YES! I am proud student of “KARACHI UNIVERSITY”

Besides, local civilians many people came across the world to study here as it has many fields of education.

Karachi university has many factors which makes me proud to be kurians,

First of all it’s teaching staff and faculty members are well experienced and educated.

Secondly it does not provide only an  academic environment but also for student’s interest it organizes many events like Pegham e Aman, Book fair, Students week, Independence day and much more and for the last 1.5 year I am attending all the events and having a lot of fun beside education.

Karachi University has a signature cuisine that has become famous. The mini samosas served straight out of the fryer in the university’s own food street ‘Prem Gali’, to the halwa puri and other luncheon options at Majeeday, besides there are many tuck shops, cafes and eating from different departs tasting all the specialties of all departs is my all time favorite activity.

As I am also interested in historical things so here again there are a number of museums on campus at different departments including Zoology, Geology, History and Sociology where rare artifacts and cultural items are on display. Not to mention Karachi University has its own botanical gardens as well, and these gardens are so beautiful...I visited many times.

Karachi University has one of the largest libraries in Pakistan. Its central, Mehmood Hussain library has close to 350, 000 books, including the personal collection of the Quaid, Mohammad Ali Jinnah and It’s a very calm place to study and every type of book is available there.

 My department Masscom also operated the fm 90.6 fm radio and has its own printing press.

Although I don’t live in the university hostel, but I like that there are many hostels inside the university.

I am a proud student of my university and I am having a great experience of studying in Karachi University. I am not just studying over here as I am also gaining the best experience of my life.
