University of Mirpurkhas (UMPK)

The University of Mirpurkhas (UMPK) is a young public-sector general university in Mirpurkhas, Sindh, created by the Sindh Assembly under Act No. XXXVI of 2023 when the former University of Sindh Mirpurkhas campus was upgraded to an independent university. It serves students from Mirpurkhas, Umerkot, Tharparkar and Sanghar districts with BS programmes in computing, business, English and education. HEC maintains a page for ‘The University of Mirpurkhas’ under its Sindh public universities section (Source); applicants should confirm the current recognition status on hec.gov.pk, as the university is new.
