Seen as the founding mother of education in KSA, Queen Effat (as she was affectionately known) worked tirelessly to e stablish it as one of the cornerstones on w hich our society is built. Her legacy of excellence and passion for education lives on in Effat today, and we’re proud to be one of the most forward-looking universities in the Middle East. We work to the highest inter national standards and partner with the world’s finest nstitutions.
We also break new ground; both with the 13 different undergraduate programs and 5 graduate programs we run and the academic quality we deliver. It’s one of the reasons we attract the very best inter national faculty to our strong team, helping give our undergraduate and graduate students a rich and rounded education.
Whether the young women and men at Effat go on to have academic or industry-based careers, we’ve created a direct gateway to success for all of our students.
E at University strives to be recognized as one of the world’s leading institutions in scientific discovery and innovation presenting solutions to societal challenges, and to serve as an agent of change that advances inspired leaders and scholars in fulfilling Queen E at Al Thunayan Al Saud‘s vision (God rest her soul).
