Furthermore LUMS SSE is different from other science and engineering universities because it will concentrate initially only on a few key science and engineering disciplines at whose intersection most new discoveries and powerful new products will emerge. We have decided to start with Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics. Additional strategic disciplines may be added later. Therefore we are building this university from the ground up to teach the fundamentals of these key disciplines to all our undergraduates, and to promote inter-disciplinary research amongst our graduate students. There will be no boundaries within the institution; there will simply be clusters of people united by common interests. Today somebody who belongs to the physics cluster may decide tomorrow to move to an electrical engineering cluster. This will make it not only a unique university in Pakistan but probably in the world.

This is a strat of that school , i think from 6 October,2008 and first batch will be out in 2012. So at start less UG programs but as time pass , momentum will grow with hiring more faculty, more funds , more HEC support and new disciplines will be evident. It will be new blend, a new flavour something different from usual 4 years program courses offered by other universities. Something i found here
