SMIU to establish helpline to facilitate students

VC discusses helpline at a meeting of the students affairs department

KARACHI: Sindh Madressatul Islam University (SMIU) has emerged as one of the most modern varsities of the country providing high-quality education.

SMIU Vice-Chancellor (VC) Dr Muhammad Ali Shaikh said this on Friday while presiding over a meeting of the students affairs and placement department at the varsity.

The SMIU provides a learning environment to students, the VC said. He informed the meeting that a helpline office would be set up at the varsity to promptly provide required information whenever it was needed.



The helpline office will work under the students affairs and placement department, Dr Shaikh said, adding that if students had any problem at the varsity or they wanted to inquire about anything related to their academic issues, they could call the helpline to have their problem resolved.

According to the VC, students could also contact the helpline in case they had forgotten their identity cards due to which they were not being allowed to enter the varsity premises. Such a facility would help students concentrate on their studies with peace of mind, he said.



The meeting was attended by students affairs and placement department head Uzma Batool, along with student welfare officers Zunaira Jalali and Mahgul Nadir, and sports officer Mohammad Kashif.
