The Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan has made a three-credit-hour course on Artificial Intelligence (AI) compulsory for all undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes starting from the 2026 academic session. The directive applies to both public and private universities across the country.

Universities have been instructed to incorporate the mandatory AI course into their curricula without delay. The course may be offered as an elective, interdisciplinary subject, or as a supporting course within the existing programme structure.

HEC stated that integrating AI into academic programmes is a necessity in today’s rapidly evolving world. The move aims to equip students with essential knowledge and practical skills to effectively use AI tools in their respective fields, enhancing their academic and professional growth.
