　　As a Social Scientist with PhD in International Relations, I have spent the over two decades in teaching, research and publication as well as managing and developing academic programs at three prominent universities, including University of Oxford, England, Eastern Mediterranean University, Turkish Cyprus, and Quaid-i-Azam University, Pakistan. I have benefitted from several prestigious fellowships, including Fulbright fellowship at University of California, Santa Barbra and Hans-Seidel fellowship at Christian-Albrecht University, Germany. I have published extensively on Pakistan, South Asia and Muslim world affairs, and organized and spoken at several international conferences at various global platforms. I have recently assumed the position of Vice Chancellor, University of Sargodha, where I intend to translate my vast exposure to higher education at home and abroad into tangible reforms in teaching and research, knowledge economy and academic collaborations.
