Gulf University for Science and Technology is an institution with deep roots and high aspirations – for ourselves as a university and for you as students. Our existence, our ethos, and our ultimate goal is to ensure that you are successful during your time with us, and afterwards.
It is for this that we draw on the vastness of our people’s collective experiences, and to ensure that our grounds are fertile for you to uncover your essence, grow your abilities and thrive on your own. Consider GUST as a place you can find yourself, try new things, and excel in and outside the classroom.
To ensure that you are offered a solid foundation for your future, our University is supported through an affiliation with the University of Missouri - St. Louis, with whom we benchmark our curricula. Furthermore, our university boasts six US accreditations, which are the ABET accreditation for the Computer Science degree, AACSB-International for the CBA undergraduate programs and MBA, Commission on English Language Accreditation (CEA) accreditation for the English Foundation Program, American Communications Association (ACA) accreditation for the Mass Communication Department, and NOSS (National Organization for Student Success) for our Math Foundation Unit.
In 2017, Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) University Rankings first ranked GUST in the top 50 Arab Region Universities out of nearly 1000 universities and colleges in the Arab Region, which made it the first private university in Kuwait to make the list. Later in 2020, GUST was inducted into the global rankings, making us the top-ranked private educational institution in Kuwait. Such achievements would not be possible without talented faculty, dedicating and hardworking staff, engaged graduate & undergraduate students, especially as we navigate the murky waters of the COVID era.
It’s been 20 years since we welcomed our first students, and we are proud of what they’ve accomplished. Many have set up their own prosperous businesses, and we see those as the true hallmarks of our mission’s accomplishments. They are emblematic of what GUST was built to create and form. What’s more, we are also proud of our faculty-members, many of whom have established academic centers on our campus and produce exceptional high quality research articles which are frequently published in highly reputable academic journals, and exciting research outcomes which are solutions to real-world problems.
As a university, we will continuously improve and develop our programs and community involvement to ensure a well-rounded academic experience. As students, you will come to enjoy a lively university experience by means of our vibrant student clubs whose focuses are varied and multifaceted. This, coupled with our study abroad programs, will allow you to expand your cultural horizons and to build meaningful and lasting connections.
As a student at GUST, you are paired with a friendly and competent academic advisor, who will guide you throughout your time with us. Their role is to help you navigate your course, be it with selected classes or finding help with courses you are struggling with. At GUST, communication is key, so be sure to seek help whenever you need it.
We wish you all the best, and hope you enjoy your time with us!
