What Faculties and Academic Disciplines Does MUST Offer?

Updated

MUST (Mirpur University of Science and Technology), Mirpur, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, organizes its academic offerings into six faculties and one institute: Engineering & Technology; Natural & Applied Sciences; Social Sciences & Humanities; Health & Medical Sciences; Management Sciences (FMS); and Mirpur Institute of Technology (MIT). The university describes itself as serving students from AJK, across Pakistan, and abroad, with an emphasis on international-standard curricula and state-of-the-art labs. Below is how those units map to broad study areas, plus how to confirm which specific degree programs are open in a given admission cycle.

Faculties and institutes at a glance

Academic unit Broad discipline area
Faculty of Engineering & Technology Engineering and technology disciplines
Faculty of Natural & Applied Sciences Natural sciences and applied sciences
Faculty of Social Sciences & Humanities Social sciences and humanities
Faculty of Health & Medical Sciences Health and medical sciences
Faculty of Management Sciences (FMS) Business and management studies
Mirpur Institute of Technology (MIT) Technology-focused teaching unit
Journals University publications (not a teaching faculty)

The site lists these units under "MUST Administration & Faculties." It does not publish a per-faculty list of individual degree programs on the page reviewed, so treat the table as the organizational structure rather than a complete program catalog.

What each unit suggests about program choice

Engineering & Technology

This is the faculty to look at if you are considering an engineering or technology degree. MUST also runs its own entry test for this pathway: the State Engineering & Engineering Technology Entry Test (SEET) 2026, with a new test center added for phase-1 at Allama Iqbal Open University, Sector H-8, Islamabad. If engineering is your target, SEET is the gate you need to plan around.

Natural & Applied Sciences and Social Sciences & Humanities

These two faculties cover the science and non-science academic tracks respectively. They are the natural home for students aiming at science subjects or at humanities and social science fields rather than professional engineering or health programs.

Health & Medical Sciences

This faculty covers health and medical disciplines. The site's news items reference a Department of Doctor of Physical Therapy, which sits in this area — a concrete example of the kind of allied-health study available.

Management Sciences (FMS)

FMS is the business and management unit, relevant if you are targeting management or commerce-oriented study.

Mirpur Institute of Technology (MIT)

MIT is listed as a separate teaching unit alongside the faculties. It is worth checking directly whether its offerings differ from the Engineering & Technology faculty before you apply.

Admissions: what the site confirms

MUST publishes admissions for PhD / MS / MPhil / MSc & BS 5th Semester, Fall 2026, and runs a University Graduate Admission Test (UGAT-1), with a press release noting that MUST UGAT-2026 has been rescheduled. For undergrad engineering entry, SEET 2026 applies as above.

Practical steps to confirm your program:

  1. Identify the faculty matching your intended field using the table above.
  2. Check the Fall 2026 admission notice for the specific degree and level (BS, MSc, MS/MPhil, PhD).
  3. Note which test applies — UGAT for graduate admission, SEET for engineering/engineering technology — and track rescheduled dates on the university's news section.
  4. Confirm the department offering your program, since the site names departments (e.g., Doctor of Physical Therapy) without listing every one.

Common sticking points

  • Faculty ≠ program list. The site names faculties but not every degree within them; do not assume a specific major is offered just because its faculty exists.
  • Test type matters. Engineering applicants need SEET; graduate applicants need UGAT. Mixing these up is an easy way to miss a deadline.
  • Dates change. The UGAT-2026 reschedule notice shows dates are not fixed — recheck before planning travel to a test center.

For the most current program and eligibility details, use the admission notices and faculty pages on must.edu.pk rather than relying on the faculty names alone.
