Description

GUST opened its doors to eager minds in 2002 as the first private university in Kuwait with the determination of a group of distinguished Kuwaiti academicians and businessmen when they realized the importance of establishing a modern university in Kuwait equal in quality to other prestigious universities abroad and to serve the ever-increasing educational demands of the local society and the Gulf region. Its primary purpose was to prepare generations of young leaders and professionals for the demands of a new global technological era. And ever since, has been steadily improving and expanding its educational and organizational capacities. The importance of having a modern university in Kuwait comparable in quality, to other prestigious universities abroad was not lost on the founders of GUST. And the importance of dedication is not lost on its students. GUST, celebrating its 10 year anniversary this year, has steadily increasing its enrollments. At its first commencement ceremony in June 2007, GUST conferred diplomas on approximately four hundred graduates, many of whom were eagerly received by the leading business sectors in the state of Kuwait.
