The Lahore University of Management and Sciences will not be abbreviated as LUMS, rather it will now be called LUMSU. Interestingly, the ‘U’ in LUMSU stands for University, essentially meaning that the acronym will now feature the word ‘university’ twice.
The name ‘LUMS University’ is to highlight the educational institute’s evolution to a “comprehensive university offering over 30 undergraduate and graduate degree programs”.
