Recommended Posts

The University of Damascus is the largest and oldest University in Syria, located in the capital of Damascus, and has campuses in other Syrian cities. It was founded in 1923 through the School of Medicine (established 1903) and the Institute of Law (established 1913). Until 1958 it was named the Syrian University, but the name changed after the founding of the University of Aleppo. There are nine public universities and more than ten private ones in Syria. Damascus University and the entire education system in Syria were degraded dramatically during former President Hafez al-Assad and then Bashar al-Assad's reign. It used to be a leading university in the Arab World. However, currently, its world ranking is 4152, and its Arab World ranking is 114, according to the "Webometrics Ranking of World Universities."
