The Universal College Islamabad (UCI), formerly known as University College of Islamabad, is a higher education university based in 40-B, Kirthar Road, Sector H-9/4, Islamabad

Universal College Islamabad was founded in 1992 by Dr. Alan Bicker with the support of prominent Pakistani scientists who noticed a dearth of quality higher education.[1][2] UCI is a pioneer in offering the International Programmes in Pakistan.
