Realizing the importance of business education, Department of Business Administration was established in 1972 in the University of the Punjab. Later on, in 1987, the department was upgraded to the Institute of Business Administration. This was a great mile-stone in the history of the University, as IBA was the second institute in Pakistan, where teaching of business administration was being offered.
