Dear Gents,
Getting admission to higher studies/Phd. Should not depend upon the cgpa or percentage of previous degree.the best thing is to have a specific test like Gre,Gat or any that HEC may develop for admission.
And all those **Gents** who are judging some/all students on there english language skill or criticising that they were not able to write in english in there propsals should mind and remember that English is not the National or widely speaking language in Pakistan. and majority of us( I think) have urdu mediam till inter.so atleast in Pakistan this should not a much strong factor for someone to accept the propsal.
Nodoubt English is must have tool for current acedemics but not ultimate.
as we can see Europe, china and the research and development thay able to get without knowing much English.
So sure it is something else for one to be a Phd, researcher, Highly skilled professinal but not marely cgpa.
I also appologize in advance if my input feel inconvenient to any one here.As all are my teachers and much seniors.
WITH ALL RESPECT.

Most universities have set 3.0 as passing GPA for MS. Below 3.0 passing GPA is normally for undergraduate programs. So 3.0 GPA for PhD is justifiable.Dr MisbahSSUET, Karachi

I believe in PhD the Q1 is the largest filter. The students below 3.00 CGPA would be at a greater risk of failing the qualifying exam part-1.Junaid---------------------------------------

I totally disagree with brother Adnan. We should focus here on quality rather than quantity. Most of the reputed universities in Pakistan have the criteria of atleast CGPA 3.0 for MS degree and I think it is a good step if HEC has done it.Regards,Engr.IhteshamOn Thu, Jul 25, 2013 at 8:02 PM, Sajjad <sajjad_akr@yahoo.com> wrote:

Sent from my iPhoneSalam,I hear that HEC has set up 3.0 CGPA requirement for admission in PhD, whereas the passing criteria for MS degree is 2.5.If a person with fairly good academic record has not been able to secure a CGPA of 3.0 or above then he/she is deprived of getting admission in PhD.Furthermore, students with equal CGPA from different universities have different calibre.With this email, I would like to float a resolution, that the admission in PhD should be the discretion of a university rather than HEC, i.e. every person who has cleared MS should be able to get admission in PhD provided he/she fulfils the criterion of a particular university.kind regards,-adnan

DEAR ALL:The Chinese panel are available at 70/watts ranging from 100 watts to 200watts panels.China with all its high production/low cost is not been able to produce more than 1% electricity from solar panels!We must identify the right application and right place to produce solar based electricity. Unfortunately, no technical survey /mapping/feasibility has been conducted by the govt sector leaving the right application of this technology unattended.AEDB is the organization having deep rooted corruption and obvious incompetency and national level academic organization are silent spectator on the subject.Sincerely yoursMoazzam Ali ToorCeoCapital engineering CorporationShenzhen-Oslo-Islamabad03215299526

I see the problem with people demanding relaxed standards for PhD qualification.Everyone wants to be PhD. Why? Because that is the top of the career ladder in academia. Being masters you just get 25K - 50K, but being PhD your salary gets 100K and above. And you have the power of authority. But think naturally, should every Masters graduate be encouraged to do a PhD? As if there is no other way to excel in your field?Practically, its just the Bachelors graduate degree holders who contribute the most and excel in seniority in the industry. Just 4-6 years professional study and 12+ years practical industry experience.
The society does not need everyone as philosophers like Socrates. Thats why they dont allow all masters to be PhD. They want more practical men with their feet on the ground. Only 1% thinkers are enough. And even those only the clear-headed and useful in practical implementation.

Dear Friends,HEC has already put this matter at the discretion of admitting university by issuing a notification that Admitting University shall approve some Pre-requisite courses for the students (with less than 3.00 CGPA) at the time of admissions for those who have remained somehow week in their Masters studies as to elevate the student knowledge level to cope with hard PhD studies coming ahead for him.As far as course work is concerned, it is customary that Level of course work at PhD level is higher than Masters and undergraduate levels so that indepth knowledge of the subject can be provided to the candidate. However I agree to the point that relevent course work (PhD field/Area specific) should be there for the candidate and all irrelevant courses in the PhD Studies be omitted and the decision to this effect be made at the time of his admission in the university by his supervisor. I also recommend that exemption of 3.00 CGPA condition for PhD Admission for foreigen qualified Masters Degree holders be abolished as to treat all local and foreign students equally.Regards,Dr. Engr.

Subject: Re: [pakgrid] why 3.0 CGPA for PhD AdmissionQuality vs Quantity argument has no ends. Simply put: we need both.If the Supervisor is OK to take the student and University is OK to take the student even if he/she has CGPA<3.0 than HEC should have no objection. Admission of a student is at strictly University's discretion. HEC should focus on specifying the quality criterion of the research produced and ask the Universities to implement those criterion. What's wrong with that?On Fri, Jul 26, 2013 at 10:12 AM, Shafiq Ur Rehman <shafiq.rehmaan@gmail.com> wrote:There is no guarantee of degree from MAJU without hard work, You have to earn it by yourself!

I agree with Sir Qasim Sheikh , it was a well planned agenda by our enemies ,both external and internal .We are still unable to find any solution . Why don't we have proper representation of the concerns related with academia besides writing emails . Do we have any union ? Should we form such forum with some leaders and regular members ?
Thanks
