NUML notes that fees rise by about 5-10 percent a year; refunds are 100 percent in the first week of classes, 50 percent in the second week and nil after 15 days.

Career Scope in Pakistan

Computer science remains the strongest job market for fresh graduates in Pakistan. BSCS graduates work as software developers, web and mobile app developers, QA engineers, data analysts, network and system administrators, and IT support staff in software houses, banks, telecom operators and startups, and a large share freelance for overseas clients. Demand is strongest for graduates who complete internships and keep a portfolio of real projects.
