About National Textile University
National Textile University (NTU) is a public federal university located in Faisalabad, Punjab — Pakistan's textile capital. Originally established as the Pakistan Textile Institute in 1959, it was upgraded to a full degree-awarding institution and granted university status in 2002 under the Ministry of Textile Industry, Government of Pakistan. NTU is HEC-chartered and operates under a federal mandate to serve Pakistan's textile and apparel industry.
NTU is the only textile-specialised federal university in Pakistan. It offers undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programmes in Textile Engineering and Technology as well as interdisciplinary programmes in Computer Science, Business Administration, and Natural Sciences. The university's graduates are in high demand across Pakistan's export-oriented textile sector, which accounts for over 60% of the country's total export earnings.
NTU follows the semester system and applies the standard HEC 4.0 grading scale across all programmes. The university campus features textile engineering labs, spinning/weaving/finishing workshops, a chemistry and materials science block, a library, and student hostels.
NTU Grading Scale (Official 10-Grade System)
NTU follows the HEC-standard 10-grade 4.0 scale, uniform across all HEC-chartered universities in Pakistan:
| Grade | Grade Points | Percentage | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| A+ / A | 4.00 | 85–100% | Excellent / Outstanding |
| A- | 3.67 | 80–84% | Very Good |
| B+ | 3.33 | 75–79% | Good |
| B | 3.00 | 70–74% | Above Average |
| B- | 2.67 | 65–69% | Average |
| C+ | 2.33 | 60–64% | Below Average |
| C | 2.00 | 55–59% | Satisfactory |
| C- | 1.67 | 50–54% | Pass |
| D | 1.00 | 45–49% | Minimum Pass |
| F | 0.00 | Below 45% | Fail |
The minimum passing grade at NTU is D (45–49%, 1.00 grade point). An F (below 45%) carries 0.00 grade points and the course must be cleared before graduation.
How to Calculate Your NTU GPA
Your NTU semester GPA is a credit-weighted average of grade points across all enrolled courses:
- Find the grade point for each course (e.g., A- = 3.67, B+ = 3.33).
- Multiply each grade point by the course's credit hours to get Quality Points.
- Add all Quality Points together.
- Divide by total credit hours enrolled that semester.
Formula: GPA = Σ(Grade Points × Credit Hours) ÷ Σ(Credit Hours)
Example (BE Textile Engineering Semester 3): Yarn Manufacturing (3 cr, A = 4.00) + Textile Chemistry (3 cr, B+ = 3.33) + Fluid Mechanics (3 cr, A- = 3.67) + Islamic Studies (2 cr, B = 3.00): QP = 12.00 + 9.99 + 11.01 + 6.00 = 39.00. Credits = 11. GPA = 39.00 ÷ 11 = 3.55.
How to Calculate Your NTU CGPA
Your NTU Cumulative GPA (CGPA) tracks your academic performance across all completed semesters:
CGPA Formula: CGPA = Total Quality Points (All Semesters) ÷ Total Credit Hours Completed
Use the CGPA tab above — enter each semester's GPA and credit hours to get your cumulative CGPA automatically.
Example: Semester 1: GPA 3.40, 18 cr (61.20 QP). Semester 2: GPA 3.55, 17 cr (60.35 QP). Semester 3: GPA 3.20, 18 cr (57.60 QP). CGPA = 179.15 ÷ 53 = 3.38.
Convert NTU CGPA to Percentage
For employment, textile industry certifications, or further study requiring a percentage, use the HEC-approved formula:
Percentage = (CGPA ÷ 4.0) × 100
| NTU CGPA | Equivalent Percentage | Division |
|---|---|---|
| 3.50 – 4.00 | 87.5% – 100% | First Division (Distinction) |
| 3.00 – 3.49 | 75.0% – 87.2% | First Division |
| 2.50 – 2.99 | 62.5% – 74.7% | Second Division |
| 2.00 – 2.49 | 50.0% – 62.2% | Pass |
| Below 2.00 | Below 50% | Probation / Fail |

Absolute vs Relative Grading at NTU
NTU uses absolute grading as required by HEC policy. Fixed percentage thresholds determine letter grades regardless of class performance:
| Approach | How It Works | Implication for Students |
|---|---|---|
| Absolute Grading (NTU standard) | Fixed percentage thresholds define grades (85%+ = A) | Your grade depends only on your own score, not class rank |
| Relative Grading (curve-based) | Grade distribution adjusted to class average or rank | Class performance affects individual grade thresholds |
NTU's engineering courses include practical lab assessments, project components, and theory examinations — all assessed on the absolute grading scale with clearly defined rubrics.

Is NTU a government or private university?
National Textile University is a public federal university under the Ministry of Textile Industry, Government of Pakistan. It is HEC-chartered and its degrees are fully recognised for government employment, postgraduate admissions, and international purposes. It is not a provincial university but a federal institution specifically mandated to serve Pakistan's textile industry.
Can NTU students study Computer Science even though it's a textile university?
Yes — NTU offers a fully HEC-approved BS Computer Science programme alongside its core textile engineering degrees. NTU also offers BBA, MBA, and BS Natural Sciences. These non-textile programmes are run under separate academic departments and lead to standard HEC-recognised degrees. The BS CS at NTU is increasingly popular due to NTU's low fee structure as a federal university.
What entry test is required for NTU BE Textile Engineering admission?
Admission to NTU's BE Textile Engineering requires an ECAT (Engineering College Admission Test) or NTS-NAT engineering score. The ECAT/NTS score carries 60% weight in the merit aggregate. Candidates must have FSc Pre-Engineering with at least 60% marks. Merit lists are based on the combined aggregate of Matric (10%), FSc (30%), and ECAT/NTS (60%).
