Our college is one of the edifices of this generous country. It has spared no effort through its graduates, students, and faculty members in contributing to the development and prosperity witnessed by Saudi Arabia. Over more than two decades, the college is still the main source of IT professionals in all branches of computer engineering, computer science and information systems, and has the honor of being the first college to lead the development of technology and information systems in the Kingdom.
The college prides itself in being the first to have girls department majoring in information technology, and still keep pace with new developments as it established a software engineering department, after careful consideration to the needs of the labor market.
Programs of graduate studies in all disciplines offers master’s degrees which graduated hundreds of male and female professionals who are working in the education and information technology sectors. We hope the newly launched PhD program will contribute to meeting the need of the cadres in the education sector and research centers. We look forward to stay the best in local and regional level and seek to achieve global leadership.
