With rapid development in the field of space exploration, the subject of space science has gained tremendous importance in the exploration of natural resources, telecommunications, meteorology and related fields. The University of the Punjab recognizing the importance of space science, decided to start an academic program in this field and consequently the Department of Astronomy was re-organized as the Department of Space Science in 1985. Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore.

Well it seems a lot has changed. I joined this department in second batch - class of 1987 and graduated with B.Sc. Space Science in summer of 1990. I topped with my class fellow Ali Abbas Bokhari that session. We only had visiting teachers at that time but they were best in the field. Retired professors and working members of SUPARCO. They also took us to visit of Suparco in Karachi for over a week or so. What a fun it was - amazing train trip with my class. But I left after B.Sc. and went to Quaid-e-Azam University to do Computer Sc. And graduated there in March of 1993.

It has well discipline environment, well equipped & more enjoyable place for learn & & grow together.

It is good such kind of departments exist in our Universities..... science n technology education is getting importance in Pakistan now.....
