The Adamjee Government Science College is one of the most prestigious colleges of Karachi, Pakistan and the first choice of the cream of students of Karachi. It was established by Adamjee Group. The college is a legacy of Sir Haji Dawood Adamjee’s family. Sir Adamjee was not only a very successful industrialist, but also a very passionate philanthropist and educationist and his family kept his passion alive. His sons, particularly Abdul Wahid Adamjee, deserve the credit for financing and building the college.

It is located near the mausoleum of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, in the area of Garden East on Business Recorder Road, Karachi.

The college was inaugurated by President Ayub Khan in 1962 and the All Pakistan Memon Educational and Welfare Society with the generous donation of the Adamjee Family.

Adamjee Science College was inaugurated in 1961 by the then President of Pakistan, Field Marshall Ayub Khan.
