The Office of Research, Innovation and Commercialization was established in 2011 under the guidelines from HEC. Our aim is to become the backbone of the country's policy makers by providing sound academic expertise in the decision making process. Applied Research at IBA not only facilitates the decision making bodies, NGO's, transnational organizations and businesses but also transforms individuals into scholars. IBA wants to set a standard of excellence and outline new frontiers in research. We work hard to provide a culture, infrastructure and environment that encourages and supports our people. Every project we support is driven by a desire to make a difference.
