History and Establishment
| The Institute of Environmental Sciences & Engineering was established in 1996 in Rawalpindi for the promotion of higher scientific education in the country, especially in the fields of Environmental Engineering and Sciences. The institute aims to reach its goals by providing a learning environment for research, innovation and technological excellence in environmental sciences and engineering, produce internationally recognised environmental sciences and engineering graduates who are prepared to lead, and are competent to excel as professionals and entrepreneurs, and possess unimpeachable integrity.
The first academic programme was offered in the establishment year (1996). The institute inaugural degree programme was MS in Environmental Engineering. Following a humble start, the Institute gradually expanded and offered a number of degree programmes catering to both Environmental Engineering and Sciences disciplines. Within two decades, SCEE (IESE) has emerged as one of the premier institutes of Pakistan for the education of Environmental Sciences and Engineering. Department of Environmental SciencesThe Department of Environmental Sciences has a rich legacy of academic excellence, with its MS and PhD programs in Environmental Sciences established in 2008 and 2009, respectively. Over the past 15 to 16 years, these programs have contributed significantly to advancing research and fostering innovation in the field. Department of Environmental EngineeringThe educational process at SCEE (IESE) is based on outcome based education (OBE) system, which is focused at achieving certain specified outcomes in terms of individual student learning. Outcomes are the key attributes that students should understand and be able to attain, and the qualities they should develop, by the time they graduate. The educational structure and curriculum for the Programme – Bachelor of Environmental Engineering at SCEE (IESE) is designed to achieve the outcomes, capabilities and qualities as outlined in OUR SAR. Continual Quality Improvement (CQI) seeks to verify achievement of these goals, and take corrective actions if required, to ensure a self-improving system. Result of PEC’s Re-accreditation Visit Held in July 2021:Based on the satisfactory level of compliance against accreditation criteria / quality standards and implementation of the outcome-based assessment procedures and continuous quality improvement, re-accreditation was successfully granted to SCEE (SCEE (IESE))’s BE Environmental Engineering program for two (02) years, i.e., intake batches 2017 and 2018, under Level-II by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC). Result of PEC’s Re-accreditation Visit Held in May 2023:Based on the satisfactory level of compliance against accreditation criteria / quality standards and implementation of the outcome-based assessment procedures and continuous quality improvement, re-accreditation was successfully granted to SCEE (SCEE (IESE))’s BE Environmental Engineering program for four (04) years, i.e., intake batches 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, under Level-II by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).
