Haider Mullick

Background
Haider had always wanted to come to the U.S. for his higher education.  His goal is to one day return to his home country to aid in rural reconstruction and the development of Pakistan.  Haider speaks several languages including Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, and Saraiki.

Why IUP
IUP afforded Haider the best scholarships and opportunities for an American higher education.  More than just an education, Haider appreciates the small-town culture of the area.

"The calmness of the Oak Grove, the friendly faces of the community, and a campus no less mesmerizing than Harvard" are his first impressions of IUP.

Things You Do
Haider has worked as a peer adviser, helping with recruitment, tutoring, advising and testing incoming students.  He now works as a student assistant to the president of the university.  Haider is also a member of Student Congress where he chairs the Diversity Action Committee, and he participates in the Economics Club, Rotary International, and the social fraternity Kappa Delta Rho.  He is a contributing writer to IUP's student newspaper, The Penn. 

School Stuff
Haider chose Economics as a major in order to become an international economist.  He wants to work to make policies on trade and foreign investment possible for the betterment of developing nations.

He is also a member of the Robert E. Cook Honors College, an area of IUP that offers especially challenging courses and research opportunities for students.  You can visit the Honors College site at http://old.www.iup.edu/honors/.

Around Here
One of Haider's favorite projects was working with a committee to establish a memorial on campus for the victims of September 11.  IUP was the first American university to erect such a monument.

"It is a dramatic monument consisting of black granite and a charred steel remnant of one of the World Trade Center towers," Haider said.  "The milestone became a reality because we were determined, but not because we were faculty members or heads of a construction company; we were just students, just like you."
