Participating universities include Institute of Cost and Management Accountants of Pakistan, Sukkur Institute of Business Administration, Riphah International University, Air University, University of Arid Agriculture, Institute of Management Sciences, Peshawar, and Sarhad University, Peshawar. The Pakistani students will join more than 850,000 students at 4,400 institutions in 91 countries that benefit from their participation in the Oracle Academy.
