About the College

Faculty of Education, Humanities, and Applied Sciences—Khawlan, Sana'a University

About:

In line with the Yemeni government’s commitment to expanding access to higher education, Sana’a University has taken the initiative to establish branch faculties in several governorates. This expansion is driven by the growing number of students seeking higher education, with the aim of relieving the annual strain on the university’s faculties in Sana’a and providing higher education opportunities to a wider range of Yemeni citizens. In accordance with this vision, the Faculty of Education, Arts, and Sciences—Khawlan was established, incorporating three distinct faculties (Education, Arts, and Sciences) to serve as the nucleus of a multidisciplinary university and complement Sana’a University by offering education at the same academic level in accordance with quality specifications and international education standards.

 

Establishment:

The Faculty of Education, Arts, and Sciences—Khawlan was founded in the academic year 1997–1998 as one of the branch faculties affiliated with Sana’a University. This establishment was based on the decision of Sana’a University Council No. 421 in its session held on August 6, 1997. The decision outlined the justifications for establishing the Faculty of Education, Arts, and Sciences in Khawlan, emphasizing its role in serving the public interest.

 

Stages of Development:

In accordance with the establishment decision, the name of the faculty included three faculties, namely: the Faculty of Education, Arts, and Sciences. It started with the following departments:
