Graduate Follow-up Unit
Unit Director's Word
The College of Computers and Information pays great attention to its students from the moment they register in the college until the moment they graduate and obtain their academic degrees. During the university study period, the college seeks to provide everything necessary to prepare and qualify the student to engage in practical life and assume various professional positions that enable him to play an important role in building society. Given the presence of a number of annual graduates who leave university life and leave the college with their certificates heading to civil society institutions (local - Arab - foreign) in search of a future career, the college administration has been interested in establishing a unit to follow up on graduates and employ them. This is due to its keenness to follow up on its graduates by qualifying them and helping them as much as possible in obtaining jobs that suit their academic qualifications and abilities, and to maintain contact with them even after they leave the college. Because the college realizes the importance of these graduate students, whom it considers to be its ambassadors representing it in their places of residence, it has seen the necessity of giving these students great attention to follow up on them and knowing their places of work by contacting many institutions, ministries of labor, the public and private sectors, and government agencies by introducing them and doing everything available to provide the largest number of job opportunities for them. To reduce the unemployment rate suffered by graduates, and by establishing a graduate follow-up unit, the College of Computers and Information is fully prepared to assist graduates as well as various community organizations that need the college’s various specializations.
