Dr. Riazuddin was one of Pakistan's top scientists and is widely known theoretical physicists in Pakistan and abroad. Starting his scientific research in physics in 1958, dr. Riazuddin was one of the senior scientist and considered one of the early pioneers of Pakistan's atomic detterence development when he was the director of the Theoretical Physics Department of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission from 1974 till 1984. Riazuddin had remained the only pupil of Nobel laureate in Physics Professor Abdus Salam.He carried out his international and leading-edge research from International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC), European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and Daresbury Laboratory where he published important papers in mathematics and physics. Riazuddin also played an important role in education in Pakistan, and contributed in the rise of science in Pakistan. Riazuddin authored thirteenth scientific books on different topics of physics including particle physics, quantum mechanics and need of contemporary physics. Riazuddin made original research contributions of high international standard in theoretical physics and mathematics.
