Apart from regular teaching & seminars the department also takes its students to study trips to various military facilities & related areas. Some of the trips have included visits to Pakistans Navy submarines, Heavy Industries Texila (HIT) (where Pakistan produces its main battle tanks), and air force bases.
In addition, students are encouraged to attend seminars in other departments of QAU as well as other universities & research institutes.

Famous quotes containing the words study and/or trips:
“The life of a good man will hardly improve us more than the life of a freebooter, for the inevitable laws appear as plainly in the infringement as in the observance, and our lives are sustained by a nearly equal expense of virtue of some kind. The decaying tree, while yet it lives, demands sun, wind, and rain no less than the green one. It secretes sap and performs the functions of health. If we choose, we may study the alburnum only. The gnarled stump has as tender a bud as the sapling.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A great proportion of the inhabitants of the Cape are always thus abroad about their teaming on some ocean highway or other, and the history of one of their ordinary trips would cast the Argonautic expedition into the shade.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
