Program values:

The success of the program's strategic plan requires achieving the goals of the strategic plan (for the university) and defining a set of values ​​governing work at the university. It is necessary to find processes to support these values ​​so that they get  transformed from mere slogans into tangible and influential actions and be a solid foundation for university dealings at all levels. The most important values ​​that represent the basic logic governing the behaviors of project workers have also been identified, and these values ​​include the following:

• Justice in learning opportunities: We believe in the importance of achieving equity in learning opportunities and making it a legitimate right for all.

• Excellence: achieving the highest levels of quality.

• Empowerment.

• Team effort: We believe that combined efforts between all parties achieve additional value that cannot be achieved by one party alone, and we achieve this by activating the role of specialized committees.

• One goal: We believe that we are one team with one goal. Therefore, we were moved by a firm desire to achieve the university’s vision and message
