Ahmed Bashir

I had a pleasant and memorable experience being at GIFT University. The BSCS program not only equipped me with the necessary skill set in the field of Computer Science, but also with interpersonal, and management skills. The faculty is well-experienced and knowledgeable. Moreover, one should not be worried when the institute has mentors like Dr. Fakhar ul Islam Lodhi and Dr. Qaiser Shehryar Durrani. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.
