Our Vision & Mission

We are and will be a school where design and social research drive approaches to studying issues of our time, such as democracy, urbanization, technological change, economic empowerment, sustainability, migration, and globalization. We will be the preeminent intellectual and creative for effective engagement in a Pakistan & world that increasingly demands better-designed objects, communication, systems, and organizations to meet social needs.

Our vision aligns with shifts in the Pakistan economy, society, and environment, which animates our mission and our values:

• Creativity, innovation, and a desire to challenge the status quo will affect what and how we teach and the intellectual ambitions of the school itself.

• Social engagement should orient students' academic experiences to help them become critically engaged citizens, dedicated to solving problems and contributing to the public good.

• The Shaheen School must embrace these principles and innovate to address shifts in the Pakistan economy, society, and environment that require individuals to grapple with complex problems, pursue more fluid and career pathways, and collaboratively create change.
