Message from the Chairperson

Welcome to the Department of Humanities at COMSATS University Islamabad.

The Department of Humanities, with its presence across seven campuses of COMSATS University—including Islamabad, Lahore, Abbottabad, Wah, Vehari, Sahiwal, and Attock—stands as a vibrant academic community committed to excellence in education, research, and societal impact. Our collective mission is to foster intellectual curiosity, critical inquiry, and humanistic values in students through diverse academic offerings in English, Psychology, Media and Communication Studies, and related fields.

Each campus brings unique strengths, faculty expertise, and cultural contexts, enriching our shared vision of empowering students to become thoughtful, ethical, and impactful professionals. From our established BS, MS, and PhD programs in English Linguistics and Literature, to emerging disciplines like International Relations, Media Studies and Psychology, we provide students with the tools to navigate a rapidly changing world—grounded in language, discourse, identity, and the human experience.

Our faculty across campuses are dedicated scholars and mentors who inspire students to think creatively, communicate effectively, and lead with integrity. We place strong emphasis on interdisciplinary learning, research excellence, and co-curricular engagement, ensuring our graduates are not only academically prepared but also socially responsible and globally aware.

As Chairperson, I take pride in the unity and diversity of our department across all campuses. We are committed to continuous improvement, innovation in teaching and learning, and collaborative growth. Whether you are a student, researcher, or partner, I invite you to explore the opportunities we offer and become part of a dynamic academic journey that values both knowledge and humanity.

Together, we shape minds, build futures, and contribute meaningfully to society.

Warm regards,
Dr. Ali Ahmad
Chairperson, Department of Humanities
