About
International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology, Gujranwala is a private-sector institute in Gujranwala, Punjab, recognised by the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan.
International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology is oriented towards engineering and technology, which in Pakistan places it under a second regulator alongside the HEC.
Location and Address
The institution is located at Lahore Road near Sialkot Bypass, Gujranwala-Punjab.
Degree Programs
Admissions
Engineering admission normally combines HSSC (pre-engineering) results with an entry test — the provincial ECAT in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, or an institution’s own test elsewhere. The decisive check is Pakistan Engineering Council accreditation: PEC accredits a specific programme at a specific campus, so a degree title that is accredited at one institution may not be at another. Graduating from a non-accredited engineering programme prevents PEC registration, which is required to practise as an engineer. Ask International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology for the PEC accreditation status of the exact programme and campus you are applying to. As a private-sector institution, fees are set institutionally rather than by government schedule, and can differ substantially between programmes — ask for the full per-semester schedule, not just the first instalment.
Applying in Punjab
Public-sector engineering admission in Punjab runs through the ECAT administered by UET Lahore, while medical and dental admission uses the national MDCAT. Punjab operates one of the country’s largest public university systems, so applicants typically hold offers from several institutions at once and should compare merit positions before accepting.
HEC Recognition and Accreditation
The Higher Education Commission lists International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology as a recognised institution. Recognition means the HEC accepts the institution as competent to award degrees, and that its degrees can be attested and treated as valid for further study and public-sector employment. Recognition is institutional, however, and does not by itself confirm that any particular programme is accredited by its professional body. For engineering programmes the operative approval is Pakistan Engineering Council accreditation of that specific programme at that specific campus.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology recognized by HEC?
Yes. The Higher Education Commission of Pakistan lists International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology as a recognised institution, which means its degrees can be attested by the HEC and are accepted for further study and public-sector employment. Recognition applies to the institution; individual programmes may additionally require accreditation from a professional council.
Is International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology private or government?
International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology is a private-sector institution. Private institutions set their own fee schedules rather than following a government scale, so ask for the complete per-semester cost across the full degree rather than only the first instalment.
What entry test is required for admission to International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology?
Engineering admission normally requires an entry test — the ECAT in Punjab, an ETEA test in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, or an institutional test elsewhere — alongside HSSC pre-engineering results. Confirm the current requirement on the institution's own admissions page, since criteria and closing dates change each cycle.
Does HEC recognition mean every programme at International Institute of Science, Arts and Technology is accredited?
No. HEC recognition confirms the institution is chartered to award degrees. Individual programmes in regulated fields need separate accreditation — the Pakistan Engineering Council for engineering, PMDC for medicine and dentistry, the Pakistan Bar Council for law, NCEAC for computing. A programme can sit inside a recognised institution without holding that professional accreditation, so check the specific programme before enrolling.
