The Applied Science University of the Kingdom of Bahrain has also a link with Jordan’s Applied Science University in addition to its affiliation with Moata University, with its civilian and military divisions. Such cooperation takes the form of an academic partnership, and ASU remains an independent educational institution in terms of its faculty and license that was granted by the Bahrain’s Ministry of Education.
ASU seeks to become an oasis of knowledge, academic ethics and excellence. It hopes to mold human resources that observe and comply with our social values and have both the practical and theoretical knowledge, which enables them to keep abreast of various academic developments. In this connection, they will be effectively capable of contributing to the development of the Arabian Gulf community in particular and the entire Arab World.
ASU earned its license and accreditation from the Cabinet under Chapter No.WD140/2004 dated 5th July, 2004 to become one of the first private universities in the Kingdom of Bahrain authorized to teach in both Arabic and English.
In the first semester of the academic year 2006/2007, seventeen students graduated from ASU. In the second semester of the year 2006/2007, a total of 105 students graduated. It obtained a general accreditation of its academic programs from the Ministry of Education pursuant to Ministerial Order No.654, 655.
Vision
The University’s vision stems from the analytical and statistical studies conducted by the University through which the requirements and objectives of the Bahraini community have been identified. The findings of our studies have clearly been reflected in the selection and introduction of modern educational programs that conform to the approach of education in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the Arabian Gulf region.
Mission
The University’s name represents its philosophy of higher education. The University believes that the academic theory must be closely related to practice and to serve as its mission in offering the best educational services that are compatible with the highest international quality systems practiced by well-established academic institutions. This has truly enabled us to enjoy a good reputation among universities in the Kingdom of Bahrain and abroad. Thanks to our reputation, we have been able to sign several academic agreements with established universities known for their strict observation of high academic standards in the selection of their faculty members and academic programs such as Moata University, with its civilian and military divisions. This certainly proves that the University enjoys the technical means, conditions and specifications expected by such a university for signing an academic partnership agreement. Given the University’s brief history, this is considered as a significant academic achievement.
