DEPARTMENT OF URDU
The Department of Urdu started functioning in the academic year 1952-53, at the
University of Sindh, Elsa Kazi Campus, Hyderabad. Its first chairman was Professor

M.Phil & Ph.D. Research was started in 1956. The First Annual Journal “Sareer-e-
Khama” was first published in 1960. The other Research Journal “TAHQIQ”, that has
achieved reputation and outstanding fame as a literary journal was first published in
1987. The department is proud that 8 volumes of “Sareer-e-Khama” and 34 volumes of
“THAQIQ” have been published to-date. The Department has awarded one D. Litt, 73
Doctoral & 9 M.Phil. degrees to date; some of the recipients are noted scholars. Out of
73 Doctoral Degrees awarded in Urdu, 40 Ph.D. Scholars were supervised by (Late) Dr.
Ghulam Mustafa Khan. This is the second highest number in University of Sindh.
The Department organises different literary functions from time to time. In addition to
this, seminar on “Dr. Ghulam Mustafa Khan” is also arranged regularly each year, while
under “Dr. Najam-ul-Islam Lecture Series”, eminent scholars from all over the country
are invited to deliver lecture.
