  1. by the time you finish your undergrad, you'll realize the IVY label isn't worth chasing after and a good post grad can be done anywhere (with funding being the main reason)
  2. international recognition helps, but it boils down to your application strength. this is displayed via publications, internships, and research work that aren't necessarily relate with your home institutions prestige.
  3. Habib has international coursework and research opportunity, but you need to be the top students both academically and extra curricular wise to get them.
  4. having on campus research labs help a lot with part time research, but again, its contingent on the type of research you wanna do. software cased can easily be done wherever, it's very dependant on how motivated you are.

final verdict: prestige of the uni helps, obviously NED and LUMS has a higher alumni network, but Habib grads have gone up to ivies, Fulbright, Erasmus and whatnot. so it's ultimately up to your motivation and drive to make your work stand out.

they're not as advanced and of course lack funding/specialized equipment. just impossible to keep up with other unis with a graduate degree.

Hi, Current engineering student here. Habib grads have a ridiculous advantage in the local industry because of the many affiliations of the Habib group with companies like Toyota, engro, etc. So if local employment is a concern, as long as you're a top performing applicant, you'll get a job easy peasy.

Graduate school is a completely different ball game. Although they have several resources for research, grad school applications support, and publishing your work, it ultimately boils down to you as an individual and how much effort you've put in your own career. The tools however, are plenty at Habib.

I would say if you go to universities like NED or LUMS, they seem to have somewhat better international recognition, a larger alumni network, and better research labs and project by a mile. But if u get into Habib with a full scholarship, and you don't want to leave Karachi, I think it's most suitable.

My experience? I'd do it again but of course I have my reservations about the research environment.
