KARACHI – The British Council in Pakistan is hosting the largest cohort of leading UK universities across three cities in Pakistan as part of the Study UK Exhibition Tour.

Studying and working in the UK with some of the top rated universities provides young people and adults increased opportunities in terms of careers across the globe.”
