Irbid: The Computer Science bachelor's program at the Faculty of Computer and Information Technology at Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST) has achieved a significant milestone by securing Jordanian accreditation for four years, reinforcing its academic standing and commitment to maintaining internationally competitive educational standards.
According to Jordan News Agency, the accreditation was granted by the Higher Education Accreditation and Quality Assurance Commission after the program successfully met the national requirements and standards governing higher education quality in Jordan. This decision marks a new milestone for the university's technology programs and reflects continued efforts to enhance academic quality, modernize curricula, and align learning outcomes with the rapidly evolving needs of the technology sector.
University officials emphasized that the accreditation confirms the program's ability to deliver high-quality education that keeps pace with developments in computer science and information technology. It also equips graduates with the skills required to compete in local, regional, and international labor markets. Dean of the Faculty of Computer and Information Technology, Munir Bani Yaseen, stated that this achievement is the result of ongoing efforts to improve study plans, strengthen the learning environment, and ensure that students receive an education combining academic rigor with practical and professional competencies.
He further noted that the accreditation reflects the collective efforts of faculty members, administrative staff, quality assurance teams, and students, indicating that the faculty will continue pursuing further advances in education, research, and community engagement. The latest accreditation builds on the program's existing international recognition, as the Computer Science bachelor's program has held accreditation from the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) since 2020.
ABET is one of the world's leading accreditation organizations for programs in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Its endorsement indicates that the program meets internationally recognized standards for academic quality and graduate preparedness.
