Dean's Message
Welcome to the Faculty of Business at Sohar University!
As dean of the faculty, I am extremely proud of the rich tradition of providing practical, experiential-based business education that our faculty has upheld since its founding. The business faculty has both undergraduate and graduate business programs to help prepare our students to be morally and intellectually strong global leaders who can meet the challenges of a time when society is going through a big change.
The content of our coursework and experiential learning is supported by faculty and staff, which creates the perfect environment for students to succeed. We ensure that from day one through graduation, our students experience global real-world business issues in classes and projects. The success of our students is largely due to the hard work of our faculty, staff, alumni, and members of our advisory boards. All these people work hard to help our students learn and grow into global business leaders who will make a positive difference in the world.
The Faculty of Business is a member of the prestigious global business accreditation from AACSB (the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), which correlates with the growth and skillsets required across diverse business degrees both at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. In addition, our accounting graduates are well connected with the ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), which places our graduates on a professional pathway in their careers. The Faculty of Business at Sohar University is near the Port of Sohar in the Al-Batinah region of Oman. It gives our students unique chances to work with companies and communities and learn from them.
The years of leadership and expert knowledge that our diverse faculty members have offered to the curriculum have been vital to the success of our students and alumni. As leaders in their fields, the knowledge of our faculty and research continues to drive change and have a positive effect on society at the university, in the community, and around the world.
I invite all of you who are interested in expanding your knowledge and enriching your careers to explore our faculty further either online or through a visit to campus. I hope that you will join our community of life-long learners.
