Its official programme list starts with the five-year Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and includes PharmD and about 16 BS (Hons.) degrees such as Medical Laboratory Technology.

Students may move between the Lahore City Campus and the Pattoki campus. That makes a light, tough laptop with good battery life the right choice. The software is mainly PDFs, slides, Excel, SPSS and report writing.
