FEA Philosophy

The FEA is characterized by a modern philosophy based on several central directions, the most important of which is building strategic partnerships to create an environment in which faculty members can realize their potential and participate effectively in the development of the economic and administrative environment of the Kingdom.

Central to this philosophical approach is helping students to develop the knowledge and skills to compete locally, regionally, and internationally. This aspect of our approach relies on supporting the creative and innovative skills of our faculty members and arming outstanding students with the tools needed to become community leaders and entrepreneurs.

Objectives of the Faculty

The FEA seeks to achieve a number of key objectives including:

Developing scientific knowledge in the subjects explored by the academic departments and encouraging basic and applied research related to the working environment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Supplying the labor market in the Kingdom with graduates with the specialized skills and knowledge needed to advance business objectives.
