In Pakistan there are only a few good schools of higher learning for women. Many families do not feel comfortable in sending their daughters to co-ed institutions. As a result, a good number of talented women are deprived of opportunities to attain intellectual and academic excellence. Riphah International University’s Al Maizan Campus offers its services to such students. It is a model institution of higher learning for females

What is Social Science?

Social science tells us about the world beyond our immediate experience, and can help explain how our own society works – from the causes of unemployment or what helps economic growth, to how and why people vote, or what makes people happy. It provides vital information for governments.
