Ibrahim Ariqat's Company Details
AQB offers 8 bachelors' degree programs, Biology, Computer Science, Economics and Finance, Human Rights and International Law, Political Science, Urban Studies, Media Studies, and Literature and Society. The college has a dynamic mix of faculty from Palestine, Europe, the United States, and around the world. Additionally, the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program serves teachers in history, sciences, biology, English, and mathematics. The MAT program came into reality as a response to a significant need for change in Palestinian public and private education. In this regard, AQB's liberal arts approach comes to value individuals by adopting small classroom models, essay-based exams, and departing from the traditional classic education. It is distinguished by its interdisciplinary programs that overlap in harmony and sequence. This uniqueness contributes to the mainstream-education by adding the liberal arts catalyst that encourages students to think out of the box, be progressive leaders of their communities, and able to self-express themselves in different mediums. It all boils down to that a liberal arts education focuses on reflective writing, openness, civic engagement, search with curiosity, and preparation for the future.AQB is constantly bringing more talents and resources into the university in order to provide students with the necessary knowledge, facilities, and technologies to thrive in a globalizing world. AQB graduates have gone on to top–ranking graduate institutions, including Oxford University, Central European University, SOAS of the University of London, Syracuse University, and AQU's School of Medicine. They have also received highly competitive awards for graduate study, including the HESPAL, the DAAD, and the OSF, and the Chevening. More than that, about 90% of AQB's 300 BA graduates have found employment in their field and/or gone on to postgraduate study.
