KFUPM Leadership

The university’s accolades and high achievements are owed, in part, to our leaders who provide clear direction and seek to continue KFUPM’s legacy as a center of excellence.

Their energy reflects a commitment to advancing higher education through knowledge and partnerships that evoke progress and create meaningful opportunities for faculty, researchers, and students alike.
