About Middle East College

MIDDLE EAST COLLEGE

In 2000, two entrepreneurs set up Middle East College to further Information Technology (IT) education in the Sultanate of Oman. This dynamic institution soon diversified into other academic areas to keep up with the demands of a fast-growing economy. Middle East College is now one of the leading higher education institutions in the Sultanate of Oman, with over 5000 students studying undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in different areas of Engineering, Business, and Technology.

MISSION

Middle East College strives to educate students in the true sense of the word - equipping them with the values, knowledge and life skills needed to enrich their lives and contribute to the progress of society. All students are assigned academic advisors, offering advice, guidance and support throughout their studies. This provides a creative, nurturing campus environment, where students can make a positive difference to the community, the state and the world.

EMPLOYABILITY

Middle East College is one of the leaders in the private Higher Education sector in Oman, and has permanent members of Industry involved in curriculum design and development. This fundamental engagement with Industry ensures that students graduate industry-ready and employable, acquiring Industry Certifications without any further tutoring.

EXCELLENCE

Middle East College is set over 100,000 square metres in the Knowledge Oasis, Muscat, which represents a key stage in the continuing development of the Sultanate as an emerging technology hub.
