Career Scope in Pakistan
Multan’s software sector is smaller than Lahore’s but growing, with software houses, the Multan Software Technology Park and freelance communities absorbing BZU computer science graduates, alongside banks, telecom franchises, colleges and the agriculture and textile businesses of the region that increasingly need in-house developers. Many graduates move to Lahore or Karachi for product-company roles, work remotely for foreign clients or continue to MS CS at BZU.
