Dr. Faisal Shehzad

Currently, I am serving as a Lecturer in Botany in the Department of Life Sciences, Khwaja Fareed University of Engineering and Information Technology, Rahim Yar Khan. I have completed my Doctorate in Botany (Plant Stress Physiology and Nutrition) from the Government College University, Faisalabad, Pakistan.  I had also served as a Research Associate in the HEC-Pakistan-funded project for a period of 3 years. During my Ph.D, my dissertation title was “ Growth and yield nutritional quality of maize (Zea mays L.) fertigated with Zn-lysine under water deficit conditions. My main goal is to achieve excellence through high-quality education and research relevant to local, regional, and national needs, and through coordination with leading researchers and educators both in Pakistan and abroad to explore, understand, and conserve plant diversity. I have published many research articles, book chapters, and review articles in well-known international journals.
