Admission Information
Dawood University of Engineering and Technology (DUET) Karachi runs one undergraduate intake per year. As of October 2026 the Fall 2026 undergraduate cycle is in its late phase: the application deadline (reported as 29 June 2026) and entry test (12 July 2026) have passed, merit lists have been issued and the admissions news page shows a vacant-seats notice for BE Materials Engineering, BE Energy & Environment Engineering, BS Management & Technology, BS Industrial Management & Technology, BS Material Science and BS Environmental Science (Source). Postgraduate (MS/PhD) admissions for Fall 2026 are advertised separately. DUET does not run a Spring undergraduate intake, so the next opportunity is Fall 2027.
