Students also had the pleasure of connecting with NED alumni at GoodCore—Hassan Raza, Hadiqa Yousuf, and Zameet Sabir—who shared their personal journeys, experiences, and valuable advice on transitioning from academia to industry.
It was truly an enriching day filled with learning, engagement, and inspiration, leaving students motivated to pursue excellence in their professional paths.
Industrial Visit to Dumlottee Division’s Pumping Station
A heartfelt thank you to the Karachi Water and Sewerage Corporation for facilitating a valuable field visit for our Software Engineering students to the Dumlottee Division’s pumping station. The experience was not only instrumental for data collection but also deeply inspiring, as students look forward to translating their insights into a practical solution that ensures efficient water distribution with minimal leakage and wastage.
The Dumlottee Division itself is a remarkable site of historical and engineering significance. Home to 16 wells—including one dating back to 1881—it once supplied water all the way to Empress Market through a gravity-based system. The wells, constructed using stone transported from Kotri by train, still stand strong today. Even the original wooden structures remain intact; standing inside one of these wells, one can hardly believe it has endured for over 150 years without so much as a creak.
The site also features a serene rest house where Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah stayed during his illness before departing for Ziarat. Walking through the area feels like stepping back in time—original oil lamp posts, preserved in their authentic form, and the historic Ruston Engine from England, once coal-powered and later electrified, continue to tell stories of a bygone era. Even the manhole covers bear inscriptions of “KMC,” “DD,” and the year “1940,” reflecting the legacy of early municipal infrastructure.
Beyond its historical richness, the area is a refreshing landscape of greenery and orchards, with a scenic drive along the Malir River leading to this hidden gem. While our primary purpose was academic, the visit turned into a meaningful journey—connecting technology, history, and community.
When passion drives your work, such field visits become more than just data-gathering exercises—they become opportunities to witness impact, understand context, and innovate with purpose. We are excited to build on this experience and develop solutions that help preserve every drop of water in the distribution system.
