Abstract
The emerging interest in Intangible Capital and Intellectual Capital (IC) has shifted from business firms to institutions such as universities and research centers during the last eight to ten years. As for as creating and managing of intangible assets are concerned, Universities are assumed to play an important role in today‟s knowledge based economy. Since there is a high demand for knowledge workers/k. managers/k. leaders in the new kbased world economy, including Pakistan, so the role of the business school of universities in the country has become very vital in producing and then ultimately
meeting this huge demand of the market. This paper is the result of a research study that
explains the factors influencing the Human Intellectual Capital (HIC) of a business
school of a well reputed private sector university. These elements are grouped into seven main components. By measuring the elements of the Human Intellectual Capital (HIC), one can have an idea about the intangible assets which becomes basis for providing the comparative advantage of the business school among the universities.
