  • PP should have mentioned where this university is located. It should not be supposed that every reader knows everything. I am hearing about this university for the first time.

  • All universities follow decadent edication business model … these all lack education and training … ranking is a useless measure ….we see results.

  • I’m a student of UMT and is doing Pharm d. Honestly speaking worst institute with no management system and criteria. They just increasing their fee every month. Infact superior and university of Lahore is better than umt.
    Wallah meri Zindagi ka sabse bura waqt tha jab mene umt ko choose kiya tha 🙏🏻.

  • A university that becomes swimming pool after rain,
    Gutter University, heavily paid parking, increase fee day by day
    At the end its lumber 1 because of the payments and incentives under the table
