HEC allowined students to pursue dual and joint-degree programs

The Higher Education Commission (HEC) Pakistan has approved a new policy allowing students to pursue dual and joint-degree programs across universities.

Under this initiative, students will be able to enroll in two degree programs at the same time, even from different disciplines, providing greater academic flexibility.

Universities are also permitted to develop joint-degree programs in collaboration with local and international institutions, enabling students to study part of their degree at one university and complete it elsewhere. HEC stated that the move aims to enhance educational opportunities, encourage global partnerships, and improve higher education standards in Pakistan.
