KAU campus
The suburban campus of KAU combines features of an urban and rural campus. It is located outside the big city, which allows you to focus on your studies. However, it is also not too far, opening up access to more types of recreation, both outdoors and in the city (theaters, museums, restaurants). The university has a library where students can do their homework, write scientific papers or just read interesting books. The exchange of intercultural experience occupies a special place in training at KAU. The educational institution regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs and organizes various joint events.
If you want to stay in Saudi Arabia after graduation, one of your options is to apply for a work visa. To do this, you need to get an offer from an employer.
