History
The
genesis of Pakistan Navy Engineering College (PNEC) lies in the Officers
Training Section (OTS) which was established in 1962 as part of PNS
KARSAZ, sailor's training establishment. In 1966, the status of OTS
was upgraded to that of a college and named Pakistan Navy Engineering
College. The same year it got affiliated with the University of Karachi.
In 1977, the affiliation of PNEC was transferred to NED University
of Engineering & Technology. The college was shifted to its present
location in 1982 and commissioned as PNS JAUHAR as an independent
unit of Pakistan Navy. It became a constituent college of National
University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) in November 1995.
The primary role of PN Engineering College is to produce Quality Engineers
for Pakistan Navy and NUST. To achieve this, it conducts degree courses
in the disciplines of Mechanical, Electrical and Electronics Engineering,
and MS/PhD degree courses in the disciplines of Mechanical and Electrical
Engineering. These courses are also availed by other Defense Services and
brotherly countries. Since 1987, limited numbers of civilian students are
also being enrolled in these courses each year. Apart from BE and MS/PhD
degree courses, the college also provides specialized mid career courses
for PN technical officers after they have obtained competency certificate
onboard PN Ships. These include Marine Engineering Systems Management Course
and Weapons Engineering Systems Management Course, specially designed to
meet the service requirements of the officers in their career.
To bring a structured approach to quality assurance and support our continuing
evaluation of the curriculum and the administrative practices, the college
achieved ISO 9001 certification in May 1999 as per 1994 standard. This is a
matter of pride for the Pakistan Navy Engineering College and also for NUST
that PNEC is the first such institution in country to achieve this certification.
In June 2002, the college shifted to the new quality standards i.e. ISO 9001:
2000.
Pakistan
Navy Engineering College is committed to produce high quality professional
engineers who meet the standards set out by Naval Headquarters/NUST
and Pakistan Engineering Council.
