Ah, memories, memories...
Attique Shafaat...what a fine gentleman!
He was my batch mate at NED--so down to earth and so ahead of his peers.
One big reason why Pakistan does not produce good engineers lies in our culture: a culture of looking down at people working with their hands. Attique Shafaat would give a finger salute to that sick culture every single day. When his classmates would prefer solving second order differential equations, the purpose of which they would not comprehend, Attique Shafaat would tinker with guts of cars and would devise practical solutions to problems multinational corporations spend millions on.
Attique did not live too far from where I lived. He lived in a house that his father built by his own hands, with help from Attique and his brother. And what a beautiful house it was--his father called it 'Karol Bagh'.
After graduating from NED University Attique worked for PIA Precision Engineering for a while. A mutual friend tells me Attique Shafaat currently lives in Canada. Lucky Canada!

You have missed
Jadavpur University- Dr. Triguna Sen-1906...
UVCE, Bangalore- Sir M V -1917...
VJTI, Mumbai- 1887
Degree program started after 1856. So, as engineering college all are almost contemporary (Guindy, BEC and COEP are all contemporary)...
