Mr. Ejaz Ahmad Mehboob Malik RHSA - BNU

Prof. Ejaz Malik is a distinguished academic and architect, currently serving as a Professor at the Razia Hassan School of Architecture (RHSA) at Beaconhouse National University. With an extensive background in architecture and interior design, he has played a pivotal role in shaping architectural education in Pakistan. Prof. Malik has been instrumental in establishing and developing various academic programs, including the undergraduate degree at RHSA. His academic journey spans multiple institutions, where he has held key leadership roles such as Dean and Chairman at the Department of Architecture and Design at COMSATS University. His commitment to architectural education has led to the successful creation of undergraduate and postgraduate programs in interior design and architecture, leaving a lasting impact on students and institutions alike.

Beyond academia, Prof. Malik is a prolific artist and researcher, whose work bridges the disciplines of architecture, sculpture, and fine arts. His artistic contributions include numerous solo and group exhibitions, both nationally and internationally, with works displayed in prestigious galleries such as the National Gallery of Pakistan, Lahore Art Gallery, and multiple exhibitions in France. His extensive research on portraiture and calligraphy has resulted in an impressive body of work, including the "Bismillah Series"—a collection of over 6,500 drawings, as well as the publication of a monograph on his architectural philosophy, particularly his personal residence, KK House. His ability to merge architectural thought with artistic expression has earned him recognition as a visionary in contemporary design and art.

Prof. Malik's contributions extend beyond academia and art; his expertise in architectural consultancy and project management has been integral to the development of architectural and design departments in multiple institutions. His role in the establishment of the Department of Architecture and Construction at Beaconhouse Corporate Office and his leadership in the creation of faculty programs at GIFT University and NCA underscore his influence in the field. His work continues to inspire future generations of architects and designers, making him an invaluable asset to BNU and the broader architectural community.
