The College of Applied Studies was established on February 5th, 2005 according to a decision made by the University of Bahrain Board of Trustees in its 11th regular meeting with a clear vision of producing highly qualified and very well-trained graduates at the Associate Diploma level for the local as well as the Gulf labor markets.
The College has two departments, the Department of Administrative and Technical programs, and the Department of Engineering Programs. The Department of Engineering Programs offers Associate Diploma in Industrial Engineering Technology, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. The Department of Administrative and Technical programs offers Associate Diploma in Networks Administration, Cybersecurity Operations, Web and Multimedia Development, Business Administration, Accounting and Office Management.
These programs are designed to respond to the needs of the labor market and to provide market ready students with skills that match the aims of the university’s strategies, the national economic objective, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
