    Information technology has become a key driver in most service industries in Pakistan and plays a crucial role in achieving effectiveness, efficiency and productivity. Software houses, web development offices, internet service providers, digital documentation all require highly skilled human resource.

    Our Institute offers several courses in the IT program (link to IT under programs) to train the youth for IT careers. While iACT has established a Computer Lab, more Computer Labs are required for our increasing student body in the IT program. The Computer Lab will enable IT students to learn different software applications and technologies, and offer the following facilities:

    • A well furbished state of the art computer lab with 40 computers
    • Appropriate software for learning
    • DSL Internet connection

    Approximately 500 students (250 male and 250 female students) will benefit from the Computer Lab every year.

    The cost of funding a complete Computer Lab is 2,700,000/- PKR (USD 39,500). The table below shows the cost of funding individual equipment in the lab. Please click here to make a donation.
