The USPCASW – U.S.-Pakistan Center for Advanced Studies in Water, has recently been established at the Mehran University of Engineering and Technology (MUET) Jamshoro, with the financial support of United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Pakistan under the Cooperative Agreement signed with USAID on December 12, 2014, for five years. The University of Utah (UU), USA is providing technical assistance to MUET for advancing the development and growth of USPCAS-W. The tangible deliverables of the Center include postgraduate degree programs, applied policy research, facilitation of public-private partnerships, and provision of policy advice in a range of water-related disciplines. The main purpose of the applied research component is to deliver relevant and innovative research to meet the needs of industry, civil society, and government.

This center was initially established as the Federal College of Art and Design (FCAD), and it was handed over to the University of Sindh with the status of an affiliated college. The first batch was admitted to the college in 1999. With the passage of time, the Federal College of Art and Design (FCAD) was converted into the Centre of Excellence in Art & Design (CEAD) vide Notification No. F. 5-7 /2002-NI—1(.) Dated 19-08-2004, by the Ministry of Education, Government of Pakistan Islamabad, and the project was handed over to the Mehran University of Engineering and Technology Jamshoro as its academic part. Following the 18th amendment, vide Notification, No. 4-5/2011-Min.I, dated 5 April 2011, the functions of the Centre of Excellence in art and design retained at the Ministry of Education, Islamabad has also been transferred to the Mehran University of Engineering and Technology, Jamshoro. The changing structure of the CEAD allowed the proper focus to Fine Art, Design and Architecture, education with emphasis to initiate postgraduate studies & research programs leading to the Ph.D. degree.

IEC is established to nurture the innovation and entrepreneurship spirit of students. Programs of IEC are designed to appeal to everyone from students, staff, industry, who are just trying to obtain a primer on entrepreneurship, to serial entrepreneurs.

Mehran University has published the quarterly Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (MURJ) since January 1982; the journal is being abstracted at Pakistan Scientific Research Information Center (PASTIC), Islamabad; National Transportation Research Board, USA; American Concrete Institute, USA; HRIS, USA; NTIS, USA; and INSPEC, UK.

MUET is certified as having ISO 9000 compliant business processes since 2003.[17] The university is also a member of Association of Commonwealth Universities of the United Kingdom.[18] On April 28, an independent audit by a team of International Organization for Standardization 9001:2008 found glaring omissions in the MUET examination controller's department. These include lack of clarity of the authorities’ matrix as to who is authorized for what; lack of secrecy in department's security where the doors were found open; manual, handwritten ledgers that have yet to be computerized and untrained coordinators for ISO.[19]
