Dear Colleague,

Greetings from Yarmouk University of Jordan (https://www.yu.edu.jo/en/). It's really our pleasure to seek your interest to collaborate with us in the different upcoming calls of Erasmus+ programs.

While we are a comprehensive university, we focus more on the following study/research fields:

1- Archaeology: http://archaeology.yu.edu.jo/en 2- Engineering: http://hijjawi.yu.edu.jo/en 3- Information Technology: http://it.yu.edu.jo/en 4- Natural Sciences: http://science.yu.edu.jo/ 5- Refugees Studies: http://rdfmsc.yu.edu.jo/en 6- Arabic Language for non-Arabic Speakers: http://langcenter.yu.edu.jo/en

Yarmouk University (YU) was founded in 1976 with a mission to provide quality education to its students in the various fields of specializations at the BSc, MSc, and PhD levels. YU found that this cannot be done without the international collaboration with leading schools, worldwide. Collaboration forms include the development and implementation of joint projects that can establish new structures and/or policies or modernize existing ones. Other forms include exchanging students to pursue graduate studies and exchanging academic and administrative staff for knowledge transfer via sharing projects development and implementations. One ultimate objective is to fuel economic growth and development of Jordan, and that would also contribute to human welfare and prosperity in its wider context. YU has 63 bachelors, 67 masters, and 18 PhD programs located in 15 faculties. It has also 18 research and service centers, including the quality and academic development center and the Refugees, Displaced Persons and Forced Migration Studies Center. Student enrollment at YU is approximately 30,000 students in the undergraduate programs and is approximately 5,000 students in the graduate programs. The instruction language in most fields of study of Yarmouk University is English. YU is involved in several European funded projects including Erasmus+ CBHE and ICM, ENI CBC Med, and H2020 (Previously, Tempus, Erasmus Mundus, ENPI CBC Med, and FP7).

We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
