Education is a lifelong process that does not end in any specific field of knowledge.  It unfolds and spreads widely and is encompassed by individuals and societies. It is not just one skill to learn or even a set of facts to be obtained or to be purchased. Academic university programs, Continuous Education, and academic research are all part of this pedagogical process that we stress in the mission and objectives at Ittihad University (IU).

IU offers individuals from a variety of social backgrounds, the opportunity for university and Continuous Education programs, whether full or part-time. It strives to provide all the requirements that parallel world standard in quality education. The new university campus, the latest advanced teaching approaches, the superb competence of the university faculty, the careful screening and selection of qualified students, and the continuous assessment of programs, teaching faculty, and students are the basis of our vibrant and expanding university.

We believe that the best way to fulfil the needs and potential of individuals and society is to make education responsive to personal aspirations. At IU, we have established a strong bond between the faculty and the students at all levels with the aim of helping the students choose their personal educational needs. Our University strives for flexibility but not at the expense of quality. The curricula at IU motivate the students to make a concerted effort to work hard while encouraging their personal qualities to blossom.

The journey will continue and we will, with the help of Allah, work towards providing our children with an education of the highest possible standard while fulfilling the needs of our society.
