Published 2021-12-31

Abstract

In today's information economy, nations' growth is directly related to individuals' creativity, critical thinking abilities, and ability to explore and use knowledge. Since these nations have recognised the value of higher education in their socio-economic growth, universities are places where individuals learn to think critically and creatively push the frontiers of knowledge. The educational system of a country determines its overall position. In addition to its economic importance, a high-quality higher education system is vital to the social growth of a person, his or her views and values as well as the nation's overall viewpoint. This article's main goal was to reveal the level of education in the Muslim world and to assess higher education in Pakistan. It also aims to showcase government efforts.
