IQAC is supposed to be engaged in implementation of the strategic improvement plans those will come out from the activities of self-assessment and peer observation of all 25 departments. It will also work on the modification of different existing academic and administrative rules of SUST based on the recommendation of concerned stakeholders. The ultimate goal of IQAC is to enhance and maintain the quality of education of SUST and getting accreditation of SUST nationally and internationally.
