In 2022, a unified ACT [2] for all public sector universities in the province was passed, under which UoB currently operates.

UoB is the largest general university in Balochistan, offering higher education across Science, Arts, and Humanities.

Category B: Direct dependents (son/daughter, brother/sister, wife/husband) of Federal Government and Autonomous Organization personnel serving in Balochistan who meet the required academic criteria.

A Fine Arts Department was established in March 1984 with four faculty members, Jamal Shah, Faryal Gohar, Akram Dost and Kaleem Khan.

It deals with painting, drawing, sculpture, and graphic art as well as historical theories of human development through the ages.

The department plays very important role in introducing Balochistan's heritage and its indigenous art, crafts and architecture.

It provides access to 23,000 full-text journals of international repute and 40,000 e-books through the E-brary program, funded by the Higher Education Commission.
