The College of Home Economics is a unique institution of the University of Peshawar. The purpose of its establishment was to provide education with specific skills to female students in an environment conducive to the culture and traditions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Over the period of time the College has expanded in terms of its purpose and scope of its academic programmes. The college is now providing education in five specialized disciplines and preparing its graduates to serve the nation in diverse areas. The College has well-equipped laboratories and has qualified and devoted faculty members. Student's talent of entrepreneurship is promoted by whetting their creativity. Following in the footsteps of the other postgraduate institutions of University of Peshawar, the College of Home Economics has moved toward knowledge based learning by encouraging the process of research among its students and faculty members. The effort of the Principal, Professor Dr. Shehnaz Khattak, is highly commendable and I have no doubt that the College will reach the pinnacle of glory under her able leadership with the support of motivated students and staff members.
