Graduate level study is the advanced preparation and mastery of a specialized discipline. It is the point from which the
course of a student’s global future is set. It ensures the conservation and preservation of existing knowledge. Graduate
studies have become increasingly important to professional development and career advancement.
I am delighted to welcome you to the website of the Deanship of Graduate Studies at King Fahd University of
Petroleum & Minerals, one of Middle East’s top research universities. In scope and quality, our graduate programs are
splendid. We offer Master and Doctoral programs in a full range of traditional disciplines, as well as interdisciplinary
programs that anticipate market trends and respond to national needs. We currently offer 52 graduate programs
leading to advanced degrees in 31 different disciplines of engineering, science and management. International
graduate students from various countries add to the richness of our diversity.
The Deanship’s webpage is designed to provide prospective students with information about graduate programs,
admission requirements and its processes. This site also provides current KFUPM graduate students various types of
information.
Any queries or suggestions pertaining to the Graduate Studies are most welcome.
Yours sincerely,
Prof. Salam A. Zummo
