Alhosn varsity to host series of Open Days

The Open Days will highlight the recognised degrees available to students in Alhosn’s three faculties: Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Business, and Faculty of Arts and Science.

In the two Open Days, a number of participating students will have the chance to win a trip to Canada for an intensive English language programme offered by Alhosn University.

The new university to open its doors in September has undertaken an extensive research to determine what programmes are in demand at both local and international levels.

State-of-the-art facilities and world-class lecturers have been obtained by the university to ensure the highest standard of education is provided to students.

Alhosn University has already put initiatives in place to guarantee that a student who graduates with a degree from Alhosn will have their education recognised throughout the world, particularly in the United States and Canada.

“The first of these steps will be applying for ABET accreditation, from the USA” said Professor Saghir, Alhosn University’s vice president. “This and other measures will ensure that a student’s undergraduate degree at our university will be recognised when pursuing graduate studies abroad.”

The purpose-built city campus near the old Airport Road, next to Musallah Al Eid, is currently in the final stages of construction and is set to be ready to accept its first batch of students on September 10 2005.
