Message From Vice Dean for Development

In the name of God, praise God, Prayer and Peace upon the Messenger of Allah.

The decision of establishing the Faculty of Computing and Information Technology in Rabigh is a consequence of the Government's interest in the information technology sector. It came also as a response to the rapid developments taking place in our world in this area. The Faculty started to receive students at the beginning of the first semester of the academic year 1430/1431 AH and started receiving females in the female section at the beginning of the first semester of the academic year 1431/1432 AH.

The Faculty has developed ambitious targets to serve the kingdom development plan, by forming highly qualified specialists in the field of information technology, computer science and information systems. The Faculty also seeks to provide researches, studies and scientific consulting to contribute to the advancement of the community and the local region in particular.

Since its inception, the Faculty accomplished valuable achievements in hiring and attracting highly qualified and experienced faculty members and lecturers for the two sections of the Faculty. This had a positive impact on the educational process and as a result, many scientific research were submitted in the last and current years.

The Faculty established also the new headquarters of the Faculty in the university campus. The lectures, professors and administrators were moved to the new buildings. It has, as well, established the headquarters for the female section and installed all equipments and laboratories that are necessary to start the study.

The Faculty is seeking to take into account international standards to update the curriculum and use the latest methods and teaching aids as a prelude to meet the requirements of the academic accreditation, which will gives additional value to the Faculty and its outputs. Through the provision of distinct studying programs and attractive academic environment, the Faculty hopes to provide students with theoretical and practical information necessary for the development of their intellectual abilities and refine their characters to build self-confidence needed to contribute and participate actively in society and in the local and regional labor market.

In conclusion, I hope this site will be a beacon for this emerging Faculty and be a bridge of communication between students, faculty members, and administration.

May Allah guide us to that, which is good for our beloved country and nation.

God grants success.
