This collaboration opens new doors for Pakistani students, offering them the opportunity to earn globally recognized University of Essex degrees while studying at local campuses, marking a significant milestone in Pakistan’s academic landscape.
The launch event, held at Beaconhouse International College’s H/11 campus in Islamabad, was graced by Mr. Oliver Christian, His Majesty’s Trade Commissioner to the UK, as the chief guest.
