Higher education in Pakistan is the systematic process of students continuing their education beyond secondary school, learned societies and two-year colleges. The governance of higher education is maintained under the Higher Education Commission (Pakistan) (HEC), which oversees the financial funding, research outputs, and teaching quality in the country.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> In Pakistan, the higher education system includes the public, private and military universities accredited by the HEC. Since independence, new universities have expanded throughout the country with support provided by the University Grants Commission (UGC), which had been an autonomous institution of recognizing universities until 2002, when it was replaced by the Higher Education Commission. As of 2024, 262 universities are providing higher education in Pakistan, which produce about 445,000 graduates and 50,000 computer science graduates annually.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Following public and private higher education institutions are active in the country:
