Muhammad Yar Khuhawar is a Pakistani analytical chemist who is Professor Emeritus at the [[Institute of Advanced Research Studies in Chemical Sciences, High Tech Central Resource Laboratory, Dr M.A Kazi Institute of Chemistry [1], University of Sindh, Jamshoro]].[2][better source needed][3]

He is working with more than 50 researchers, focusing in the field of chromatography and electrophoresis for analytical method development for metals, non-metals and biological active compounds from a wide variety of samples. His research group has synthesized a number of Schiff base polymers[4] and has developed a new stationary phase for Gas Chromatography and sensitive Liquid Chromatography procedures for the determination of pesticide malathion.

He has also published a number of research papers in the field of environmental monitoring of water resources of Sindh province including: Indus River, canals, lakes, natural springs, sea, underground water resources, municipal sewerage and receiving bodies in terms of pollution and utilities for biological life inhabiting the area.[5]
