About
ARID International University for Graduate Studies is a natural extension of a pioneering idea that originated from the "ARID" scientific platform, which established a cutting-edge digital environment to serve scientific research and education. The idea of creating the university was born from a comprehensive vision aiming to establish an international research university that relies on digital education and promotes scientific values. The university project was approved through meetings of the administrative bodies of the "ARID" platform, including the General Secretariat, the Advisory Board, and the Board of Directors.
The university aims to offer innovative and diverse academic programs in collaboration with prestigious international universities, providing a unique educational experience that leverages the latest educational technologies and distance learning applications. In January 2024, the Founding Council, formed to oversee the university's establishment, approved the university's philosophy, identity, and strategic plan, paving the way for achieving its ambitious goals of delivering high-quality education in line with the best global standards.
ARID International University aspires to become a leading model in scientific research and innovation at the international level, with a commitment to offering academic programs that align with modern developments and meet the needs of the global job market.
