The National College of Arts is an institution where creativity meets excellence;کَسْبِ کَمال کُن کہ عَزیزِ جَہاں شَوی (Seek excellence in your work, so you can be admired by the world). Keeping up to this mission, the National College of Arts (NCA) has maintained a visionary approach to the arts. Evolving from an industrial polytechnic in 1875 to a contemporary arts college in 1958, NCA now boasts an impressive array of undergraduate, graduate, MPhil, and PhD programmes. Our offerings include nine undergraduate, four graduate, and two post-graduate level programs, all designed to cultivate the next generation of artists, architects, designers, filmmakers, cultural researchers, and musicologists.
At NCA, we believe that art and design are powerful mediums that transcend boundaries and bring about meaningful discourse in the society. Our college is a melting pot of diverse talents, where tradition and contemporary practices merge to create an environment ripe for creative exploration and academic rigor. Our curriculum is designed to meet the academic as well as entrepreneurial realms enabling students to challenge their boundaries, and develop the skills necessary to excel in their chosen fields.
Our distinguished faculty members, many of whom are renowned artists and designers, are dedicated to guiding our students through a comprehensive curriculum that fosters critical thinking, hands-on proficiency, and imaginative exploration. Our state-of-the-art facilities and vibrant campus culture provide the perfect backdrop for students to hone their unique skills.
From our acclaimed programmes in fine arts, design, and architecture, to our collaborative projects and international partnerships, we offer a holistic education that prepares our students to become leaders in their respective fields.
In line with our commitment to innovation and growth, we are excited to announce the addition of new departments of Fashion Design and Multimedia to our existing curricular structure. These departments will provide cutting-edge education and training, preparing students to meet the evolving demands of the creative industries. Additionally, we are thrilled to expand our reach with a new campus in Gilgit Baltistan, bringing our unique educational experience to more aspiring artists and designers.
You are invited to join our community and contribute to the ever-evolving creative landscape. We look forward to seeing you at the National College of Arts and supporting you on your journey to achieve your artistic aspirations.
