SICASx

Learning in the 21st century cannot be confined to the parameters of textbooks and exam questions. Young learners need to be holistic in approach and critical in thought. To hone these very creative and critical pursuits, SICAS Liberty Campus regularly hosts distinguished individuals from every walk of life to inspire students. Past guests include noted entrepreneurs, fitness practitioners, innovative educationists, and star bureaucrats.

Education at SICAS is truly beyond-the-classroom. And our 2023-24 keynote speakers are representative of enshrined educational philosophy.

SICAS was honoured to recently host hero cop Shehrbano Naqvi, who courted global fame following her courageous maintenance of public order, for an unforgettable speaker session. Returning to her alma mater, ASP Naqvi shed light on her riveting journey, broke stereotypes and unravelled hard facts.

SICAS prides itself on nurturing model citizens who make a difference, and ASP Naqvi’s extraordinary achievements epitomise the pinnacle of our educational ethos. Her exemplary contribution to public service is a powerful reminder of the impact one can have when it comes to transforming lives and societies.

Mehek, a researcher by profession, presented a nuanced analysis of both: the trials and triumphs registered by the movement to secure child rights in Pakistan as she interacted with students after. Fielding an array of tricky questions, from conflict to generational trauma, ever receptive Mehek shared how her work as a child-specific teacher trainer, programme specialist fired her passion as she inspired SICAS students to do the same.

Matrix

SICAS DHA recently hosted the third edition of its signature event, Matrix, with great enthusiasm and energy.

Over three days, the campus buzzed with excitement as students participated in a series of challenging and engaging tasks, testing their skills and knowledge in a competitive atmosphere. The grounds echoed with cheers, and teams huddled together, strategizing to tackle upcoming challenges, while others relaxed between rounds, enjoying refreshments from various food stalls at the main entrance.

Matrix is not solely restricted to the intellect; it also offers avenues of entertainment through an open-mic session and a musical performance, providing a comprehensive experience for all attendees. The mega event not only fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among participants but also highlights the collaborative spirit and academic vigour of SICAS students.

International Recreational Trips

At SICAS, international trips are both educational and exhilarating opportunities for students to broaden their horizons. These trips not only provide educational insights but also help forge unforgettable memories and friendships, ensuring students at SICAS return home with a deeper appreciation of global cultures and enduring bonds.
