Yarmouk University participated in the activities of the seventh international educational exhibition specialized in educational tourism in the City of Erbil in the Kurdistan region in Iraq, which was opened under the patronage of the Governor of Erbil, Omid Khoshnaw, in the presence of the Jordanian Consul General in Erbil, Fouad Majali. Yarmouk's participation was supported by the Tourism Promotion Board, in cooperation with the International Student Affairs Unit at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research and the Jordanian Consulate General in Erbil.
Representing Yarmouk at the exhibition, the Head of the Marketing and Advertising Department, Shaza Saadoun, and the Head of the Documents and Information Department, Rami Al-Khatib, presented introductory brochures about the University and the various specializations it offers for the undergraduate and graduate levels in its various faculties, credit hour fees, and job opportunities for its graduates, in addition to the specializations that Yarmouk University recently developed and will start teaching starting from the next academic year 2024/2025. Al-Saadoun and Al-Khatib also met with the Jordanian Consul in Erbil, Fouad Al-Majali, during his tour of the corridors of the pavilions of Jordanian universities at the exhibition, where Al-Majali praised the reputation of Yarmouk University and the distinguished level of its graduates, stressing the importance of the participation of Jordanian universities in such international educational exhibitions, which enables them to market their various specializations and attract international students.
It is noteworthy that the participation of Jordan in this exhibition comes after the decision of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in the Kurdistan Region to officially recognize all Jordanian public and private universities that participated in the activities of the Jordanian-Kurdistan Higher Education Forum (Erbil-2024), which was held last May of 2024, where participating universities signed agreements with Kurdish universities in the governorates of Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, and Dohuk.
