The university is made up of 38 constituent colleges, and a range of academic departments which are organised into four divisions.Imran Khan founded Namal College 11 years ago and at that time it was affiliated with University of Bradford.PM Imran was so passionate about the set upment of the knowledge city that when in 2017 a petition was filed seeking his disqualification, he told a journalist that if disqualified he would spend the rest of his life fulfilling his dream.According to the project details, it includes academic blocks, knowledge center, sports complex, hospital, parks, technology, commerce centers, shopping malls, dairy farm, resorts, software houses, hotels, primary school and teachers' colony. The first phase of the knowledge city is estimated to cost $200 million. Initially a technical college was set uped teaching mechanical, electrical and computer sciences.
