College of Education and Sports Health
Overview of Programs
The College of Education began its journey in October 2001, when the proposal to establish the college was submitted by the Board of Trustees during its 7th meeting. After several years of preparation, the Ministry of Education officially approved the establishment of the "College of Education" in July 2010, and it was formally inaugurated on August 1, 2010.
In alignment with the strategic development focus of our institution, which includes elements such as educational technology, sports, and health promotion, we received formal approval from the Ministry of Education in July 2024 to officially rename the college to the "College of Education and Sports Health," effective August 1st, 2024.
