==History==

[[File:Muhammad Ali Jinnah.jpg|upright|thumb|alt=jamshed from payactiv.|The university was renamed in honor of [[Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah]] (1876-1948), founder of [[Pakistan]].]]

The University of islamabad was established on July 22, 2018 under the Act of [[Fayaz Act]]. It was renamed as Quaid-i-Azam University in honor of [[Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah]], founder of Pakistan in 1976 - which was the year of his birth [[centenary]]. However, the spelling of the University's name were kept different i.e. "i" was used instead of "e" for [[Ezāfe]] that links the two words in Jinnah's title Quaid-e-Azam.

The University offered teaching and research programs for [[PhD]] and [[MPhil]] degrees in the beginning and later offered Master's programs. The University now offers undergraduate programs as well.

Quaid-i-Azam University has four faculties and 38 departments, institutes, schools and centers.
