Message from the Principal

     The choices you make today are going to have a profound impact on the entire direction of your
     adult life. The decision to pursue a university qualification, and the decision concerning which
     qualification to pursue out of the many on offer, are themselves important decisions, but the most
     crucial of all will be the institution you choose. That is what will set you apart.

     Kinnaird is one of the oldest colleges for women in Pakistan and its rise to prominence for over
     more than a century has been a cumulative result of many factors including the contribution of
     dedicated teachers and the enthusiasm and creativity of its students.

     Kinnaird offers a combination of academic programs in the Arts, Social Sciences and the Sciences.
     Its excellent set up of clubs, societies and a meaningful community service program provide
     integral forums for out of classroom learning, social interaction, leadership training and personal
     development.

     I am sure you will find Kinnaird a stimulating and a supportive place in which to shape your future.
     We believe that real education has the power to transform lives at any and every age and so we
     commit ourselves to develop intellectual capacity, sense of purpose, leadership abilities and a
     commitment to social responsibility in our students.

     This academic year might be very different for all of us and we might not be able to welcome you
     physically due to the corona pandemic. However we sincerely hope and pray that the worse will be
     behind us when you begin and the campus will again be full of life and vigor.

                                                                               Prof. Dr. Rukhsana David

Welcome to Kinnaird

   Kinnaird is one of the esteemed colleges for women in
   Pakistan and we are proud of its history and present
   achievements.

   The name Kinnaird comes from Lady Mary Kinnaird who
   belonged to a titled family of Scotland. During the British
   period in India, certain British philanthropic enterprises, run
   by educated and sometimes very wealthy women from UK,
   worked for the education of women in India. Education was
   also a significant agenda for the family of Lady Kinnaird, who
   was politically involved with India. Her husband and her son
   successively were Chairmen of the committee that spoke on
   Indian issues in the British parliament.

   The Kinnaird family raised financial support and even
   donated personal funds and thus the college evolved in
   1913 from within Kinnaird High School which was already in
   existence. Today Kinnaird ranks as a premier institution of
   Pakistan for education of women, where over 2000 students
   are enrolled every year.

   The college shifted to its present location in 1938 and is
   home to more than 5000 girls who study at the college. The
   beautifully laid out gardens provide a charming setting for
   the twenty acre campus.
