The establishment of Abdul Wali Khan university Mardan is an act of historical significance by the NWFP Government since independence of the country in 1947. Being located at the focal point, the area had witnessed the rise and fall of the famous civilizations that inspired the world with the glorious culture and civilized traditions devoted to learning and scholarship. Unfortunately, with the pas
sage of time and onslaught by the bellicose tribes the human achievements spanning thousands of years were got buried in the debris of time. The establishment of Abdul Wali Khan university is a bold step forward to resurrect and bring back the same dazzling culture by mobilizing the intellectual resources of young scholars and to deepen their vision about the crying need to join together the human society irrespective of caste, colour or creed. Dr. Ihsan Ali a distinguished and experienced educationist who is a promising son of the soil, with rich experiences and deep love for promoting cause of higher education. The university would introduce all the modern departments of teaching basic sciences, social and applied sciences with a credible base of quality education and research to equip the minds of young scholars with worthwhile objectives of life.
