National Textile University

The mission of National Textile University is to contribute towards sustainable socio-economic development of society and welfare of humanity through pursuit of excellence in education, research and innovation in areas of National importance, with special emphasis on textile and clothing. The idea of establishing a Textile Institute of world fame was conceived by a group of visionary industrialists in 1954. To realize this idea the Government of Punjab joined hands with the leading textile industrialists to form an Institute of Textile Technology in Faisalabad (then Lyallpur) and provided sixty-two acres of state owned land free of cost.
