University Of Technology And Applied Sciences (UTAS) is a public university operated in 9 governorates . It has 11 different branches spread over the different part of the country. It was the first Higher Education institution in Oman. Currently, it is the largest higher education institution in Oman, catering to over 46,000 students studying in various programs.
By virtue of the Royal Decree (76/2020), the former Colleges of Technology (CoTs), the former Colleges of Applied Sciences (CAS), and the former Rustaq College of Education were merged under a single umbrella to form a university, thus, the establishment of a branch-based Higher Education Institution (HEI) called the University of Technology and Applied Sciences (UTAS) in January 2020. Such merging is motivated by the Oman Vision 2040[3] with focus on the National Strategy for Education 2040, Scientific Research Strategy, and the Innovation Strategy, keeping abreast with the modern challenges, priorities, and needs.
The UTAS has a population strength of 46,230 students who are registered in the Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Bachelor levels, taking a wide range of specializations in the fields of Pharmacy, Engineering, Applied Sciences, Business Studies, Information Technology, Applied Photography, Fashion Design, Education, Applied Biotechnology, Engineering, Mass Communication Studies, International Business Administration, Information Technology, and Design. With the increasing number of students, the UTAS has emerged as the largest university in the Sultanate of Oman.
