Welcome to the International University of Science & Technology in Kuwait (IUK).

It is with deep pride and unwavering commitment that I share with you the vision behind IUK — a university born out of a profound belief in Kuwait’s future and its need for forward-looking, world-class education. Established in 2021, IUK was created to be more than just an academic institution; it was built to serve as a national driver of innovation, knowledge, and sustainable progress.

In line with Kuwait Vision 2035, we have designed IUK to meet the highest global standards in education while remaining rooted in the values of our society. From our cutting-edge campus facilities to our outcome-based, industry-aligned academic programs, everything at IUK is centered around one goal: empowering the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and creators.

Our focus is not only on academic excellence but also on preparing our students to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. We do this through dynamic programs in engineering, business, and the arts, supported by a vibrant campus life, top-tier faculty, and strategic partnerships that connect students to the real world.

The Board of Trustees at IUK enjoys a constellation of leaders from different walks of public and community service, each selected for their invaluable expertise in guiding and monitoring our strategic direction. Their leadership plays a vital role in ensuring the integrity, vision, and sustainability of our mission.

At IUK, we believe that education is not just a path to employment — it is a foundation for nation-building. We are proud to welcome students, parents, and partners who share our mission to build a smarter, more innovative Kuwait.

Thank you for being a part of this journey.
