The Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences (or PIEAS), formerly known as the Center for Nuclear Studies (CNS), is a public and co-educational research university located in the Islamabad Capital Territory, near the remote town of Nilore. It was established by the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission under the advise of Abdus Salam. It began as a postgraduate institution in 1967 with the University of Islamabad and achieved independence and its current name in 1997. Students reside on grounds of the 150 acres (0.61 km2; 0.23 sq mi) campus while attending the university, which offers academic and technical education in the fields of Computer and Control Systems, Applied Electronics, Applied Mathematics & Numerical Analysis, Analytical Chemistry, Nuclear Engineering, Materials Science and Materials Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Radiation Physics, Optics and Laser Physics, and Nuclear Medicine. The university offers Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. As per HEC rankings, PIEAS is a no.1 engineering institute in Pakistan.
History
PIEAS began as a post-graduate institution in 1967, but in 1969 the University of Islamabad began awarding Master’s degrees in nuclear technology to its graduates. It was upgraded into the Centre for Nuclear Studies (CNS) in 1976 and received its own building in 1978, gradually increasing independence from the University of Islamabad as new facilities were constructed over the following decades. It expanded its scope with the addition of a Master of Science in Systems Engineering in 1988 and in Nuclear Medicine in 1989. In 1997, it received its current name.
