Al Buraimi University College is the first university college in Al Buraimi Governorate. Its establishment was an immediate interpretation act and an accurate response to the supreme call of His Majesty, Sultan Qaboos Bin Saeed, God Save Him, to the private sector to start investing in higher education through establishing new private academic institutions committed to sustaining more significant educational opportunities in diverse academic fields for the prospective Omani students to meet the needs of the local labor market with skilled local potentials to cope with the global economic changes.
The study at the college commenced at the beginning of the second semester of the academic year (2003 – 2004) was a dynamic starting point based on the incredible experience of partnership with California State University; without Sultan Qaboos Bin Saeed's wisdom and guidance of higher education in Oman, BUC would have had never been the reality we witness. It is a dream that comes true. BUC started enrolling students in the academic year 2003/2004. Since then, the number of students has been increasing year after year. Our hard work and efforts resulted in significant numbers of highly qualified and competent BUC graduates to be proud of. Making excellence happen needs more than successfully achieving targets. Excellence happens when we keep on improving success itself. Keeping success needs a lot of commitment, diligence, follow-up, feedback, and consistency throughout.
Since its establishment, BUC's benefited greatly from the academic affiliation with California State University Northridge (CSUN). The experiences, knowledge, and international standards of CSUN have been very beneficial. We appreciate the valuable supervision and guidance we received from the Ministry of Higher Education. It helped us a lot in developing and getting the higher standards we enjoy now. We, continuously, keep on developing and improving our successful academic programs while providing the academic environment that ensures such success. Good campus facilities and services help students towards more success beyond undergraduate Diplomas and Bachelors aspiring for postgraduate studies. Moving to our new College campus in 2011/2112 has provided such a perfect environment for all BUC's members. Our continuous progress is proof of his royal majesty Sultan Qaboos Bin Said's vision towards a prosperous Oman as a leading nation in higher education.
The supervision of the Omani Ministry of Higher Education, the college affiliation to California State University Northridge, and our persistence to apply quality assurance have considerably enhanced the excellence above and proficiency and have resulted in permanent connections with the various economic sectors (public and private) to promote welfare and progress in the Sultanate. Launching the new college website is an objective response to the ideology of the college administration presided by Shiekh, Ahmed Bin Nasir Al-Nuaimi aiming at innovation and proficiency and has coincided with the inauguration of the new campus, which is deemed a unique turning point to provide a quality and excellent academic environment.
Our goal is to maintain a real and permanent collaboration with all the people accessing our website. Every word of thanks goes to those who exerted exceptional efforts to launch this website, mainly to Shiekh, Ahmed Bin Nasir Al-Nuaimi, for his constant support and encouragement.
Our students and faculty are leading voices in the nation's economic and cultural development, both locally and regionally. Our mission is to provide graduates with the knowledge and skills needed to contribute to our nation's well-being and to actively involve our faculty and staff in the advancement of the public, business, and nonprofit sectors of society.
