The stories behind the red walls of IUT

Every corner of Islamic University of Technology (IUT) seems to hold a story. The red bricks throughout the campus are not just building blocks; they stand as witnesses to countless memories that have shaped this institution.

The five pillars

Located near the Masjid-e-Zainab mosque, these are the five symbolic pillars each representing one of the five pillars of Islam.

Masjid-e-Zainab

Masjid-e-Zainab stands at the heart of the IUT campus. Apart from being a place of worship for IUT students, the mosque symbolises the spiritual foundation of the university's community.

The central field

Beyond academics, sports is a significant part of the students at IUT. The central field is the place where all the students gather to unwind themselves and enjoy leisure from the pressures of academic life.

Greenery inside IUT

IUT is a green haven with an abundance of trees inside the campus that not only provides a fresh atmosphere but also offers a scenic environment, soothing the mind and body.

Multi-cultural diversity

As an international university, students from all around the world bring bits of their culture – from food and fashion to tradition and stories – to IUT, making campus life feel more colourful and creating a vibrant community.
