Board of Trustees Letter

Since 30 years of its establishment, IUG has managed to provide quality academic education and serve the local community. With the help and support of all good people in the world, the university campus was converted from simple tents and barracks of asbestos to a modern campus with recent facilities that match the best in the world. IUG has world-wide relations with tens of academic institutions and universities and has many international academic awards. IUG professors, students and graduates proved the best success in the labor market as well as creative research.

During 30 years of achievements, thousands of distinguished students have been graduated from IUG, in more than 50 majors, in the fields of science, engineering, human and religion. Also, IUG has its impressive role in the field of scientific research.

Unfortunately, the Israeli jets have turned the modern equipped buildings into ashes to get 74 scientific labs, including thousands of scientific machines, under those destroyed buildings. The other buildings of the university have been partially damaged. Since its establishment, IUG has faced many challenges and restrictions imposed by the Israeli military authorities. However, the university steadfast and continued its way of success and achievement to help the Palestinian society.

The bombing and shelling come at a time IUG faces major financial difficulties as many students’ families cannot pay fees due to high rate of unemployment caused by the siege imposed by the Israeli army.

The Board of Trustees launched this campaign to reconstruct the university and to help its students. We certainly depend on Allah as well as on the faithful people from Arabic, Islamic nations and humans in the world.

We will continue our message of learning generations as an important way of perseverance in the Palestinian land. Taking part of reconstructing the university and helping its students will be a continued benefaction, a participation of continuing the learning message and a help to the Palestinian community.
