Margalla College for Girls Islamabad, one of the oldest girls’ colleges in the region, has received a significant boost with a comprehensive renovation and upgrade, revitalising its facilities after two decades of dilapidation.
One of the most notable additions is a new state-of-the-art computer lab, providing students with access to the latest technology and software, ensuring they are well-equipped for the digital age. This facility is designed to foster technical proficiency and digital literacy, preparing students for the demands of the modern workforce.
The college library has also been overhauled, now featuring additional resources, modern furnishings and digital access to a vast array of academic materials. The updated library not only provides traditional books and journals but also offers e-books and online databases, making research more accessible and convenient for students.
The college dispensary has been upgraded, offering improved medical facilities and services to cater to the health and well-being of the students. Equipped with the latest medical equipment and staffed by qualified healthcare professionals, the dispensary ensures that students have access to prompt and effective medical care.
In a bid to promote creativity, a new art gallery has been established, giving students a dedicated space to display and appreciate their artwork. This gallery will host regular exhibitions and art events.
In addition, a new Skills Training Program (STP) centre has been established in the previously underutilised auditorium. The STP centre offers courses in various trades and professions, equipping students with hands-on experience and industry-relevant skills.
