The Federal Urdu University of Arts, Sciences & Technology enjoys the unique distinction of being the first ever university in Pakistan, which ultimately aims at using Urdu as the main language of instruction and teaching…

The University was established on 13th November 2002 under Ordinance No. CXIX of 2002 promulgated by the President of Pakistan.
As per provision of this ordinance the university has its principal seat at Islamabad.
The university started functioning in November 2002 by taking over two federal government colleges namely Federal Urdu Science College, Karachi which were established in 1949 by Baba-e-Urdu Dr. Abdul Haq. Whose mission was only to promote Urdu as teaching and also for Urdu language as national language.
He remains struggling till his last moment of life.
