Franklin Roosevelt ,
7380-748: The worldwide standard, the courses have been merged. The primary role of PNEC is to produce navy engineers for the Pakistan Navy and the government of Pakistan. To achieve this, it conducts degree courses in the disciplines of Mechanical, Electrical and Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering and as of today, the school has highly regarded M.S./Ph.D. programs courses in the disciplines of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering. The Pakistan Army's officers from Pakistan Army Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (EME Corps) have done their science and engineering programs from PNEC from 1982 to 1988, during this time period Army's college of EME

Apart from BS and MS/PhD degree courses, the college also provides specialized mid career courses for Navy's technical engineer and science officers after they have obtained competency certificate on board Naval service. These include courses on Marine Engineering, Weapon Systems Management and Weapons Engineering Systems, specially designed to meet
8010-443: Was referred to as PNS Jauhar but it gained university-level accreditation and was renamed as "Navy Engineering College" by the Pakistan government The Pakistan Navy felt a need of establishing the science and engineering school to manage its engineering and science facilities apart from the using the personnel of Pakistan Army .
