Introduction

This document presents the Vision, Mission, and Strategic Objectives of the academic departments (programmes) of Al-Hadba University. Each departmental statement is cascaded directly from the Vision, Mission, and Strategic Objectives of its parent college and from the seven strategic goals of the Al-Hadba University Strategic Plan (2025โ€“2030): enhancing internal efficiency, strengthening governance, prioritizing quality and accreditation, fostering scientific research and innovation, expanding global partnerships, improving external efficiency, and promoting sustainability and innovation.

In this way, every programme contributes measurably to the university-wide framework, ensuring vertical alignment (University โ†’ College โ†’ Department) as required by MoHESR guidelines, the Bologna Process, and international quality assurance and accreditation standards.

In line with MoHESR's national directions and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, all programmes have integrated green education, sustainability, and artificial intelligence across their strategic objectives and learning outcomes โ€” preparing graduates who combine disciplinary excellence with green skills and responsible use of intelligent technologies.
