In 2010, after the 18th amendment to the Constitution, NISTE was upgraded into Degree Awarding Institute (DAI) to offer various undergraduate and graduate-level engineering technologies programs.

The National Skills University Islamabad, Sarmad Tanveer Campus, was established in Muridke, Sheikhupura District, after obtaining a provisional NOC from the Higher Education Commission.

The National Skills University Islamabad (Sarmad Tanveer Campus) Muridke plans to expand its educational activities and facilities in the future by offering degree programs, diplomas, and short courses in various technical fields.

The NSU (STC) Muridke has also been allocated a spacious area by the Government of Punjab, with an approximately 7,000-square-foot building for launching Bachelor Degree programs in Computer Science and Medical Laboratory Technology, with admissions planned to start in Fall 2024.

The NSU (STC) Muridke follows all educational standards set by HEC, NAVTTC and NVQF in terms of curriculum, faculty, and lab equipment.

The successful commencement of the short courses and adherence to technical standards demonstrate the campus's commitment to quality education and preparing students for the job market.
