Syed Hussain Shaheed Soherwordi and Liaquat Ali have successfully completed their doctorate degrees under Higher Education Commission’s Partial Support Programme for PhD studies abroad.
Soherwordi completed his PhD from the School of Social and Political Studies, Centre for South Asian Studies, University of Edinburgh, Scotland. He was awarded scholarship in the final year of his studies.
His research is entitled “Pakistan Foreign Policy Formulation: An Analysis of Institutional Interaction between Pakistani and American Policy Making Bodies.” He has to his credit five international and 20 national publications in the field of international relations and Pakistan-US relations during the war on terror. His thesis is under process of publication in a book form from the Oxford University Press.
Dr Soherwordi is currently working as a senior lecturer in the Department of International Relations, University of Peshawar.
Similarly, Liaquat Ali, a resident of village Dagai, district Swabi, who was pursuing his PhD degree in Earth Resources (Geology) under HEC Programme ‘Strengthening of NCE in Geology, University of Peshawar’ completed his PhD from Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter, UK. He also proceeded abroad under the Partial Support Programme.
His doctoral research is focused on developing exploration tools for precious and base metals using advance mineralogical/geochemical techniques and GIS in remote and glaciated areas of North Pakistan. His research entitled ‘Gold and Base Metal Exploration Studies based on Mineralogical/Geochemical Characterization of Stream Sediments from Pakistan’ proposes a novel way on how stream sediment mineralogical/geochemical studies can be used to predict deposit type (s).
Dr Liaquat Ali is currently working in the National Centre of Excellence in Geology, University of Peshawar.
Dr. Liaqat Ali violated PhD rules of HEC by completing PhD in 5 years instead of the maximum 4 years in addition to changing admission to a third-grade Exeter University after he failed in Manchester University. But the NCE Geology is still hiding the case of students that never returned to the country even their maximum time allowed for PhD has expired already. NCEG has done hundreds of millions of damage to the country and HEC is partner in this fraud.
Camborne School of Mines is a world class place for the study of Economic Geology and Mineral Exploration. Due to his outstanding performance Dr Liaqat Ali has now been awarded with commonwealth scholarship for post doc study at the University of Leeds. Only 3 scientist from Pakistan won this award in the year 2013.
Not by performance but by the corrupt administartion of which Liaqat is a part. By the way, he is is in jail currently. Would you like to tell a little what kind of performance led to his arrest and prosecution?
