Once the program is fully completed, the students are able to apply in various universities across the country, however, the trend is of getting oneself enrolled at a specialized engineering university, nevertheless, there are many universities offering engineering degrees.
Eligibility Criteria / Admission Requirements:
All the colleges in Pakistan have different criteria based on their policies, procedures and quality of education. Leading colleges can include 85% to 90% results as their merit, while few of the institutions also offer admissions in F. Sc. Pre-Engineering at 50% marks at matriculation level.

Although, 30% to 40% of result awaiting students also apply for F. Sc. Pre-Engineering in various colleges across the country.
Future of F. Sc. Pre-Engineering Students:
Engineering is highly recognized, respected and well paid profession in Pakistan. More importantly, it is a rich profession in terms of job opportunities. Pakistan has a lot of prospects of engineering projects but there is intense need of intellectuals in this profession that are well-trained and creative. Not only in Pakistan but engineers have a great future in foreign countries too, the availability of jobs in Middle Eastern and European countries for engineers are huge. It is rated second best profession at a global level for living up a healthy and successful life.
The professional careers that can be opted by the students are; Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, Architectural Engineering, Telecom Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Space Engineering and Meteorological Engineering. We hope that all the questions of students related to F. Sc. Pre-Engineering have been discussed, for further information, we would request all aspirants to reach us.
