KU has enjoyed a solid reputation in providing quality tertiary education programs since its establishment in 2001. Our alumni have enriched the public and private sectors in the Kingdom of Bahrain through their prominent positions and successful careers. We enjoy a constellation of goals, values, and principles that focus on serving the society and establishing a landmark in education locally, regionally, and internationally in support of the vision of the Kingdom and the mission of the Ministry of Higher Education.

Our faculty and staff are committed to provide a student-centered learning experience where empathy, respect, commitment, inspiration, and excellence are instigated and nurtured. Our hands-on experience educational models are constantly reviewed and developed. The quality of our curriculum in all departments is maintained through benchmarking with those at peer educational institutions and through seeking partnership in undergraduate and graduate programs with reputable international universities. Our engagement in the continuing national reviews by the quality assurance agencies at the Ministry of Higher Education and international program accreditation further enrich the continuous curriculum development and provide credibility for our degrees.

We are currently providing distinguished bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Law, Engineering Design, Business, and Information Technology. We are also considering expansion to other offerings and graduate degrees to satisfy the needs of the local and regional current and future job markets. We constantly engage in discussions with the industry to prepare our students with the knowledge, attitudes, and attributes that enhance their employability especially in light of an anticipated dynamic future job environment. Our strategic dimensions foster a culture of research, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Furthermore, our facilities are growing to accommodate the increasing number of our students and the particular spatial needs in major courses.
