I would encourage TCM to conduct a series of interviews on Police system of Pakistan. They are already marginalized in Pakistani system of governance. The series must include success stories as well as the reforms agenda of police system in Pakistan.

My university education makes me hate my formal education. It doesn't give me anything. It takes away from me 1)my money 2)my mental health 3)my energy 4) and especially it takes from me, my time which i consider to be my most precious asset. My degree would be a Just a printed paper for which i have to spend so much time and energy.

We are like frogs of the well. We only realise the low standard of our education when we go abroad and the reality hits us. Even our PhD research is mostly useless and based on just changing little bit of someone else’s work. There’s nothing novel about it and is done just fir the sake of the degree. Talking from my own experience and what I have seen.

Rhetoric! Rhetoric! and rhetorics! how can you expect, by teaching them how to swim in the pool, and expect them to survive in the pacific? It is the responsibility of the institutions to look into the matter and make reforms for the technical and modern education system rather than incendiary the already adverse education system of Pakistan.

That is why I like Germany they have Fachhochschule for applied sciences and Technical Universities for research n academics.....

In my university there was a professor who was a Phd holder and he don't eveh know how to teach and even his subject. Now this is the quality of teaching.

He missed the most important issue with Pakistani education: language. You speak one language at home, another outside, and study in a completely foreign language at school. You don't even understand half of what you study, how can you learn anything from it. You learn when something interests you, how can something be interesting when you can't even understand it. No nation has ever climbed the progress ladder on the back of an adapted language, - never, none..

One thing that should also be implemented is that instead of opening many good institutions for one field, govt should open only few institutions for all streams first and those should be of top notch quality. Then once you have secured the cream educationally, then open further institutions slowly. That way, development would be boosted

Solution to improve research standards by Dr Tariq banauri ... Remove MPhil requirement for getting admission in PhD after BS, do you think it will improve research standards???

Universities are useless until grass root level is fragile, school levels are deteriorating day by day. Like wise Aitchison College is a Mandi (Market place) people used to bid for admissions, LGS is only charging except one or two branches, Beacon house same problems, City School is wastage of time, lacas, cheiufat, pakturk, Crescent, dps, all are issuing degrees on fees challans and attendance only. After 5 years requirements are entirely different but we are still in fame/name/status disphora. If not come of this we will producing confused nationals and they tend to be good on corruption as have no skillful career

He was heading HEC a few months ago What reforms did he bring during his tenure???

My 4 years wasted on Computer science degree... Teaching is substandard & students don't want to acquire knowledge by themselves

Still studying Windows XP and C/CPP/VB while demand is for Python etc Intermediate Biology book in Punjab is 2 decades old and there's no even a tiny change of a typo. Yes every year a new cover 😉

Dr.Tariq Banuri highlighted the real facts about Higher education in Pakistan. He is perfect man for HEC Pakistan. He has bringing positive changes in the Higher education system.

As a British Pakistani (and a Pakistani patriot) who loves Pakistan I like this channel because it shows the flaws of Pakistan. My advice to the owners of this channel is to carry on showing these flaws but in a constructive manner which engages the people in power to make changes not in a way that will repel them if that makes sense. Thanks

The Pakistan Higher education system needs a complete over hall. My colleagues did B.Sc. Hons and than M.Sc. Hons and they know nothing about the subject in which they spend 6 years of their life. I wasted 4 years of my life for a piece of paper which is now not even accepted even in Pakistan.

i believe there must be an external examination at the end of a degree program to evaluate if the student actually deserves the degree or not. most private universities (not all) are just degree printing machines.

credit hours should be reduced if universities really want quality education, strange hierarchy in universities is destroying the morale of professors/ lecturers- This govt. is destroying education but we expect better from future govt.

Local universites first hire a professor or lecturer on a contract base. On contract base, there is no proper screening, just they pick a person of their choice through a single test and interview. Later the university give them permanent faculty position.

Very good journalism. Keep up the good work.

We are not trained according to market requirements. For instance, an MBA Finance or Commerce student is not taught how to work on excel, modern ERP softwares, make report writings or how to write a formal email , which are essential attributes to acquire a job but we are more focused on Rata Definitions...

Good work. It accentuates educational challenges. But, no one conducts academic discourse on the structural and rudimentary challenges that Pakistan has been sustaining. These problems are existing and rife with dire and profound reverberations, but it must not discount or overlook the origin of all the problems. This is one of the definitive reasons why Pakistan has been incapacitating to come up with tangible and concrete policies that carry the potential and vigour of altering fate enviably. We have very fundamental problems looming around us from the formative period of Pakistan's existence. Our political system is the fundamental problem. Our political system is an ambivalence of a praetorian democracy. The military is the rudimentary PLAYER behind (almost) every issue. The military has been intransigent on the Kashmir issue. The military does not show resilience to make an effective resolution on the Kashmir issue. The military has been engaging in commercial adventures which only extend profits to military elites. We need a kind of revolution. Talk about these foundational ad structural problems.

Yes need reforms this system

To point out weaknesses in any system or an institution is not work of person who is actually running its affairs, but of the one who is outside of it not inside of it. The problem here is that one who is heading an institution or system is pointing out those weakenesses and unable to carry out reforms or implement reforms already recommended. He ia totally right that proffessors have no up-to-date knowledge of his field. Even lacking teaching skills. Despite knowing it, who will then come to rectify these weaknesses? "Farishta" from "Aasman"!.

He himself talking theoretical aspect, lack of practical. In his tenure, HEC has strange policies.

Pay teachers well and hire ONLY on merit.

Sir I am a young 26 years old desperate student of Mphil and seeking for PhD in the near future. I was very motivated after my BS and wanted to work on climate change related issues but unfortunately it wasn't possible because I didn't have the expertise and also i had to earn money. Now with a lot of efforts and online learning from many universities I finally submitted a paper in a very reputable international journal. The question is that I now have the energy and I can learn and work on my desired topic. If I go for earning and other stuff it wouldn't be possible for me to manage otherwise. Bottom line is that there is not any place where we can work in our field and earn. I saw advertisements and they need mphil with research experience, and the salary they offer is 20,000pkr. Now sir tell me what will be my motivation after this? The only option i have now is to leave Pakistan. It's sad but i have to.

Wise man of Pakistan The Tariq Banuri. Love from Balochistan❤️❤️

This guy was HEC chairman for 4 years but no one cares to hold him accountable. What actions did he take? What does he have to show for himself - that these were the reforms I pushed for. It is very easy to lament the vested interests and red tape, if you were unable to do anything then you should have resigned. I would say that the higher education sector is in worse shape today than it was in 2017 (when I started my degree). Once this guy was sacked, the entire vested lobbies went up in arms though.

sir u were the chairman hec u had the authority to solve all these problems which u mentioned .i have listened to all of of ur interviews ,there is a big void in between the work u hav done vs the talk u do.

There are many flaws in Higher Education System of Pakistan. Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) is a MAFIA and don't want to promote BTech Engineering/Engineering Technology. National Technology Council (NTC)'s ACT is pending since 2015 and Service Structure hasn't been approved for BTech Engineers till yet. Actually PEC Engineering and BTech were same and both the Degree students were studying the same books but then this HEC's chairman Mr. Tariq Banouri and PEC MAFIA Engineers changed curriculum of BTech Engineers in 2016/2017 so a new scheme of study was introduced for BTech Engineers and also the title change from BTech Engineers to Engineering Technologists. This chairman, Mr. Tariq Banouri appointed Mr. Imtiaz Gillani as chairman of National Technology Council (NTC) on his Power Basis. Engineering Technology is also 4-Years Degree but 3 years theory and 1 year Internship/Project. Now I studied Diploma of Associate Engineering (DAE) 3-Years in 2011 and after that I have studied BTech Engineering 4-Years in 2015 UET Peshawar, so a total of 7 -Years I have spent in studying Engineering but still PEC MAFIA Engineers say that we don't accept you even PEC MAFIA Engineers have studied only 4-Years Engineering (B.Sc/BE Engineering) . Shame, Shame, Shame 😞 Mr. Tariq Banouri and Mr. Imtiaz Gillani - You both are answerable. KHUDA ko kya jawab dengay ap log jab hanara itna keemti tym waste kiya or pese zaya kiay. ALLAH ap sab ko hidayat de warna to tabah karde ap sab ko. AMEEN.

He remained 2 years as chairman HEC...sir what u have done ???

ji jb tk chairman thy tb kia kya education k lie, ab aesy suggestion de rhe jese pta ni oxford yhi chalaty thy

Fix the primary education once and for all. improvement in secondary and higher education will follow.

He has been in hec for a long time and yet not fixed the system.

Thanks

بہت خوبصورت گفتگو۔۔۔ جزاک اللہ

I would like to request TCM to investigate the matter of BTech Engineering/Engineering Technology, National Technology Council (NTC) ACT and Service Structure for Engineering Technologists.

U r absolutely ri8 sir

First of all. This should not be the words of him as he is the chief Now. He should have talked solutions and his contribution towards system. He is challenging his own competency. But what he said is I totally agree

He is telling the flaws in education system now. Why he didn't resolve these issues when he was HEC chairman for almost more than 2 years

He is like an empty vessel. "Empty vessels just make noise".Thank God, tbe present Government removed him, he could not contribute any thing of substantial nature while he was in office.

All facts are very true👍👍👍

Recently read some PhD theses of QAU available online. So poorly written that you actually felt good on coming across one paragraph without grammatical errors. Same is the case with many theses and one just questions who awarded those people 'PhDs' on the basis of that hogwash. He is right about lots of issues and quality of education.

It's truer words. When I studied BSIT course, they taught mein programming on Borland 1992 Turbo C++ Compiler and GWBasic Which obsolete when I was in kindergarten school. Standard should be improve and Education upto date because we creating unemployed Youth who don't eligible yo find job according to piece of paper universities in Pakistan are given. Its alarming and worst

Totally agree with you but how can we implement these suggestions? HEC is not doing enough to counter the contemporary problems Higher education is facing right now in Pakistan.

There should be relation b/w professors and industries ,industries should give problems to professors ,they must solve it .I mean patent culture should be promoted . universities could not affords research expenses , Industries could afford expenses and training to students and professors . Same practice is very effectively and successfully applied in china . If you see profile of chinese professors you will see tons of patents articles .

I am sorry you are saying what should be done but you are in power as a hec chairman you hold the power to put in the effort and make those changes

Truly right. Rooting for you. We need honest and dedicated educationalist's like you.

10 years ago I would agree with Mr. Tariq Banuri but afar working 10 years abroad I found his thinking obsolete . He is mixing Higher Education with the Higher secondary (senior high school) education ... 1. There is no such thing like Higher Education System , there are some set of policies and standard given by the Govt... but the universities are quite independent under that ... and there are very strong reasons for that. if a university is not up to the Govt. standard, it should not be allowed 2. teacher skills ... this is still true at some level . However, I meet very few good teachers from good universities ... but all of the professors from good universities were excellent researcher. I want to say more but if Chairman HEC have this to say, I think my words ........ . So good luck.

It's crucial to take the opinion and experiences of all the stakeholders in this education system into account (the students, teachers, and parents) who are affected directly by it. The authorities never know the ground reality in our schools and colleges, and whatever standards they might set, they usually can't be sustained or even implemented in the first place. Pouring money into education inefficiently never improves it

My request to Respected Chairman Please consider change in Pharm-D curriculum for 5th year

The video is biased. The guest is a controversial figure himself. Invite someone else for this topic as well.

Platform of HEC is for improving educational system in the country all these policies matters should be addressed through that platform for impact.

A very good explanation

HEC ruined the education system of Pakistan by introducing this messed up 4 years degree prog where teachers are forced to pass students to avoid hassle and students don’t work hard because they know they’ll pass anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

Great job guys but why stop the interview in between?

Great person

Quality ky liye kia tamam public and private sector ky pass resources hai. Lab state of the art hai kia?? Sun nay ke had tk talk tu bohut ache hai. Ground reality bhe daikhne chaheye. I am the researcher and i know how much it is difficult to do research timly. Resources nhe hai. Aur resource access bhe bohut mukhl hai. Best hai ky higher education may admission closed kar day. Policy aik bar bana lay, lab upgrade karly. Phr yaha ky student sy bhr university level ke expectation rakhy.

you're so true Sir !

Plz restore previous criteria for faculty appointment

True that ! Degrees without skills acquisition are futile .

This is the best system. World should adopt it.

Kash ye admi HEC k chairman hoti😜😜

Our officials talk in a really good sense. Even our PrimeMinister gives excellent speeches no doubt about that. But then again it’s just talks. Zero implementations. The country of hypocrites 🖕🏻

There is one magical solution to correct Pakistan’s education system. Step-1 HEC shall let everything else to schools, colleges, universities to decide and introduce a central curriculum plus exam for the whole country at elementary (5th), middle school (8th), secondary school (12th), a professional GRE type test for college and university admissions, and at the end a USMLE type professional exam to evaluate if the candidate is fit for the professional training. Step 2. All curriculum and exam conducted by HEC must be updated every 5 years to match the updated technology and modernisation of subjects Step 3. HEC shall focus on hiring a pool of learned, skilled and experienced professionals to prepare and update curriculum and exams required by HEC All the schools, colleges, and universities will automatically update their curriculum, hiring and trainings of the teachers/tutors, exams everything according to HEC. HEC has to do only ONE things to prove it’s integrity and credibility not only locally but globally. I bet within next 10-15 years Pakistan will have the world recognised schools, colleges, universities/institutes and graduates of these institute will be accepted all across the globe with divinity. This is the road map to credible education system

HEC should immediate abolish the local journal and make it open to international level. It may brings quality otherwise we will move in a circle, ends and starts are same

But many things becomes changed for example if you see Bs accounting and finance as a new field also Bs Data science is a new field. So many fields become changed with the time.. If we talk about history etc then i think in todays time very less amount of people prefer to go for such degrees like History botany political science etc.. But nowadays people prefer those degrees which give you benefit in future.. Even though people stop going for BBA..

This is not just a PK problem, it's an issue with gen Z generally. Employers are complaining that even western universities are not producing skills needed for the workforce. But agreed that this situation in PK is extremely dire and there is no vision within educational estaiahments apart from factory mass produced chickens

Admin ! The background sound track is disturbing please avoid using it.. Or use b/w comunication gaps.. Thanks

Thanks for this informative interview

universities me koi b practical kam ni hota just theorey prthai jati or bachy grades ki race me lagy rhty ,or teachers b bacho k future se khelty hain kisi ko grades km or kso ko zada dy k

What he has done as chairman hec

Good information

One of the best interview

Now students from all over pakistan should protest agaisnt such educational system due to which student's future is on risk.

HEC private universities Sy paise leti hy or teams baare e naam aa ky aik uni goom lete hy na wo students Sy facilities ky bare mein pochte hy na hi kabi labs equipment konkabi check Kiya. Mostly lab equipment expired hote hy or HEC onhe check hi nhi krti students lac mein semester pay kr rhe

Yes Pakistan definitely needs a better education system

An Interview series on Army officials will be appreciated. It will not only disseminate the knowledge about military hardships but also arise a patriotic feeling among youth

So wired to know, you have been hired to fix this systems that we already know about the problems and concerns. You are getting paid to fix these issues, counting the problems is not what we should do here. Find a solution is what matters at the moment.

Today in Pakistan mostly education industry is existing rather than education service .There are very few institute or teachers those work with dignity. Mostly people have chief purpose is revenue generation in education sector starting from abc public school to xyz .

S se bara munafiq history ma nhi jab tak chairman rha tu PEC ke khushamad karta rha main technologists jo profissionals te un ko technicians declare kia or ab education par lecture darha ha munafqt ke b koi had nhinhote n logo kelia

HEC need to work on curriculum currently we are studying foreign authors books

From queeta Balochistan

Sir meri University me computer k aik professor thy. Unko computer ka koi kam nahi atta tha. Laikin books ka kafi acha ratta lagya hua tha. Wo books ki batain to bayan kar detey thy. Laikin agar koi student General sawal kar de to hamara mou dekhne lag jaty thy. Kion k unko computer ata hi nahi tha. Aik bar laptop ka sound off kar dia aur kehne lagy k kharab ho gia ha, naya lena parhega. Aik bar picture ka size chotta nahi kia ja raha tha. Aik bar cable connect nahi ki aur printer ko kharab kehne lagy. Pakistan ki education ka bohat bura hal ha. Pakistan ka syllabus bohat kharab ha. Bachon ko siruf kahaniya parhai jati han. Kam ki education nahi ha. Me school me siruf kahaniya parhta raha hon.

پاکستان میں انگلش کی غلامی کا اندازہ اس بات سے لگائیں کہ اکثر کمنٹس انگلش میں ھیں۔۔۔ دوسری بات۔۔۔ جو کمنٹس اردو میں ھوں وہ ہم آسانی سے پڑھ لیتے لیکن انگلش والے کمنٹس پڑھنے کے لیے ہمیں زھن پر زور دینا پڑتا ھے۔۔۔ انگلش کی غلامی کے خلاف دلائل اور بھی بہت زیادہ ھیں لیکن ہماری قوم اسی زھنی غلامی کو قبول کر چکی ھے اور انگلش کی غلامی ہی ہماری ترقی کی راہ میں واحد رکاوٹ ھے اور اسی زھنی غلامی کے خلاف مسلسل لڑنے کی ضرورت ھے

You are are a gernalist of US If you are in new York then every one is saying tha AFIA SIDIQE is dead (can you confirm that she is alive) please 😭😭😭😭😭

Degree to degree hoti hai Asli ho ya jaali

What about the role of vice chancellors who never get tired of nepotism and are responsible for the downfall of the education system especially females.

Good job TCM

Apart from this there is also the problem of Islam in pakistani education system and pakistan as a whole. When you have science books gives wrong facts and lies like saying allah made this world, what else you can expect from students.

I passed ICS last year and we were studying Windows fucking XP and Dos commands. 🤷🏼

Excellent

I think you have explained all the necessary things to implement but who will implement. Higher authorities are indulged in corrupt practices and we can't get the desired results. Very unfortunate

Pakistan ka phr kon ye system thk kry ga? As a student i am really disappointed from this system. No enviornment, no recent knowledge. Whi saalon purani books ko ratty lgwaye jaty. Even teachers ko btana parta kindly aj ap ke lecture. Aa kar hmyn parha dyn...

Why music?

Great Sir

This interview was just a waste of time because we wanted to know what "chairman sahib" had contributed to the education department for its development. He just told us about conventional facts, as a chairman, which is ridiculous.

We need to get rid of rote learning its not actual learning just information been stored into the brain the actual learning is the application of that knowledge

We need to stop teaching derivation without concept plus there shouldn't be any derivation in exams
