Beaconhouse National University

Lahore, Pakistan

With so many students and faculty interested in South Asia, our new partnership with BNU affords us a unique opportunity to partner with one of Pakistan’s private universities. Its excellent facilities can provide a vital hub for Pardee and BU students and scholarly pursuits in Lahore and Pakistan. Equally, we look forward to welcoming our BNU colleagues to BU.

“As an alumnus of the Pardee School, I am honored to now bring Beaconhouse National University into partnership with such a distinguished institution. This collaboration offers a remarkable opportunity for our students, faculty, and researchers to engage globally, expanding our academic horizons and strengthening BNU’s commitment to producing knowledge that transcends borders. Through shared research, faculty and student exchanges, and joint academic initiatives, we aim to create a dynamic pathway for addressing global challenges together. I am confident that this partnership will empower our community at BNU to learn, innovate, and contribute to a world that is increasingly interconnected.”

London, United Kingdom

As a school, we were thrilled to be introduced by Trustee and Dean’s Advisory Board member Ken Slater to our counterparts at RUSI. The organization boasts an outstanding set of scholars and global policy experts on international affairs and security, a long and illustrious history of impact on public and private sector debates in the UK and around the world. Students and faculty from the Pardee School, and the wider BU community, are excited about the potential for exchange, including collaborations on research, joint presentations, and lectures. We are confident that both Pardee and RUSI will benefit enormously from this partnership.

“We at RUSI hugely value our transatlantic relationships and this new association with the Pardee School of Global Studies and Boston University is an exciting one. I am looking forward to seeing Pardee alumni in London and my colleagues and I will welcome the opportunities to engage with students and faculty in the coming years.”
