| No e-mail available | | Description | | In view of the fact that education is a major contributing factor to the well-being of any society, the Emir of Qatar issued a decree in 1973 proclaiming the establishment of the College of Education. 57 male and 93 female students were admitted in that first year.
In later years, rapid development in the country made it necessary for the College of Education to be expanded to accommodate new areas of specialization.
As a result of this, the University of Qatar was founded in 1977 with four colleges: Education; Humanities & Social Sciences; Shariaa, Law, & Islamic Studies; and Science. By 1985, two other colleges (Engineering and Business & Economics) had been established.
At present, the University of Qatar is comprised of six colleges, namely: the College of Education, the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Shariaa and Islamic Studies, the College of Engineering, the College of Law, and the College of Business and Economics.
The University of Qatar is an intellectual and scholarly community characterized by open discussion, the free exchange of ideas, respectful debate, and a commitment to rigorous inquiry. All members of the University - faculty, staff, and students - are expected to advance the scholarly and social values embodied by the university.
Our Mission:
The education offered by the University will be broad, laying the foundation for a successful professional life and for positive citizenship. Also, it will prepare students to accept individual responsibility, take initiative, and work effectively in teams. University graduates will possess the skills required for critical thinking, effective communication, and independent learning. They will have a firm grasp of the principles of mathematics and science, as well as a solid understanding of their own cultural heritage. University graduates will also see the world from a global perspective, and show understanding and tolerance for other cultures.
