Hamdard Institute of Information Technology (HIIT)

Hamdard Institute of Information Technology, commonly known as HIIT, is a constituent institute of Hamdard University, Islamabad Campus which came into being with the establishment of Islamabad Campus in 2000.

HIIT initially offered programs in Computer Science, Information Technology and Computer System Engineering, and our graduates have earned a high ranking while competing for jobs in public as well as private sector organizations. Later on, the institute introduced engineering programs in Telecommunications and Electronics in 2003. The institution proved its credibility by getting Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) accreditation with the condition of organizing ‘Remedial Education Program’ for the intakes of 2004, 2005 and 2006, for both Telecommunications and Electronics Engineerings. The institute has so far produced hundreds of quality engineers who are serving at various positions within and outside Pakistan.

Now HIIT also offered a computer science for evenings and weekends programs. therefore, job holders and others can also avail the fascilty for becoming Becholars in Computer Science.

HIIT is also offered the Elecectrical Engineering.

Programs

BE (Electrical Engineering)

Recently, on the advice of PEC, the two engineering programs (TE and EE) have been merged to form one program as B.E (Electrical Engineering). This is applicable from the intake of 2007 and onwards. The institute is thus offering BE (Electrical Engineering) with two streams i.e. Telecommunications and Electronics at present. Merging of the two programs has widened the employment scope of our students, and their skills would be better utilized in public as well as corporate sector.

Zero Semester: Under the provision of PEC policy, the institute has introduced Zero Semester (16 weeks) from Spring 2010. This policy allows conducting of Zero Semester for the students who obtain less than 60 and more than 50 percent marks in F.Sc. Subjects of Mathematics, Physics and English are taught in this semester and then a final exam is conducted. The students who secure 60 percent or more marks in Zero Semester are declared eligible to apply for the regular admission in the Engineering programs of this institute provided they meet all other PEC requirements. This has afforded the opportunity to those students who were unable to perform well in F.Sc. due to some reasons or belong to such areas of Pakistan where adequate education facilities are not available. The outcome has been very positive and encouraging for both the parents and the institute.

BS (Computer Science)

The BS (CS) is a four years professional degree program comprising the core courses in science, mathematics, programming and computing. The program focuses on instilling comprehensive Computer Science knowledge among students and exposing them to issues involved in the development of scientific, educational and commercial applications. An integrated approach to meet the hardware and software needs of the industry is adopted using modern techniques to impart knowledge through lectures as well as practical hands on training in the labs. The curriculum is designed as per HEC recommendation and provides core knowledge of specialized technologies. This program gives students a solid background in the theoretical principles underlying computer science and ensures that graduate acquire the intellectual tools necessary to keep up-to-date in this rapidly evolving discipline. The degree program endeavors to produce graduates who could pursue higher education abroad or join the industry in the public or private sector enterprises.

The institute also plans to start B.S and M.S programs in Telecommunications, Electronics and Communication and Networking in near future.

Laboratory Facilities

Electronics Laboratory

The Electronics Laboratory is equipped with a range of necessary equipment like Oscilloscopes, Function Generators, Frequency Counters, assortment of tools / accessories and a variety of Digital/Analogue components. Workbenches, technical books/manuals and engineering software are also essential constituents of this lab. Assistance is provided to the students by Lab Engineer and a team of qualified lab demonstrators under the supervision of faculty members.

These facilities are used for practical work for subjects like Electric and Electronic Circuits, Digital Logic, Computer Organization, Operational Amplifier etc. Students also undertake projects and are encouraged to participate in Electronic/Science Exhibitions.

Communications Laboratory

The Communications Laboratory has trainers for base-band communication, analog / digital modulation and fiber optic communication. The experiments are supported by high frequency signal generators, spectrum analyzers, antenna trainers and digital storage oscilloscopes to perform time-domain and frequency-domain analysis.

Digital Systems Laboratory

Digital System Laboratory provides experimental facilities to study microcontroller and microprocessor systems. Microprocessor Training System is a modularized approach to microprocessor concepts and applications. In addition to these training aids, this laboratory is equipped with a universal programmer used to program microcontrollers of different types as well as EPROMs’ trainers, data acquisition cards, DSP starter kits, lab view I/O interface and digital oscilloscopes so as to enable the students to perform laboratory projects and get hands-on training employing latest technology.

Electrical Machines Laboratory

This laboratory is equipped with transformers, oscilloscopes, DC motors, generators, DMM, load units, galvanometers, and photocell and resistance boxes to support lab work for Physics and Electrical Machines.

Industrial Control Laboratory

Industrial Control Lab has been established recently. The Lab is equipped with PLC trainers, Temperature Transducers, Pentium IV machines and some modules like lift, DC motors, and communication ports. This lab will facilitate performing experiments of instrumentation and industrial electronics. Some robot kits have also been placed in the lab for the final projects by the students.

Simulation & Modeling Laboratory

This laboratory is equipped with 25 dual core workstations with supporting software like Synaptic CAD, Matlab, Auto CAD, Mitsubishi PLC Software for lab work related to Signals and Systems, Digital Signal Processing, Industrial Electronics and Control Systems.

Another microcomputer laboratory with latest workstations is available for programming courses, and to support class room teaching, using necessary software tools.

Wireless Internet Access

Wireless internet access is provided in each of the campus building for internet access to faculty and students.

Achievements

HIIT IC Engineering Programs gets Accreditation from PEC

Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) has granted conditional accreditation to the engineering programs of HUIC. Remedial Education program for affected students will be organized soon as advised by the PEC. The Engineering Council accreditation will not only facilitate the HU graduates in getting the jobs but also help them in pursuing higher education at other universities within and outside Pakistan. All students and faculty members are rejoiced over this achievement and consider it a prominent milestone in the brief history of Islamabad Campus.
