Princess Nourah Bint Abdul Rahman University

The university was founded in 1970 as the first College of Education for women in the Kingdom. Within the following 25 years, there were 102 similar colleges in 72 cities around the country, accommodating 60,000 students. There were 6 colleges in the city of Riyadh alone, primarily in the fields of education, social service, science, arts, and home economics. In 2004, the decision was made to unify all of the women's colleges in Riyadh, thus creating the first all-female university in the Kingdom. Other colleges around the Kingdom were unified and expanded in their respected regions into independent universities.

In 2008, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud inaugurated the campus and changed the university’s name to “Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman University” after Princess Nourah Bint Abdulrahman, the sister of the country’s first king and leader, King Abdulaziz. Nourah in Arabic means "light." With this launch was the building of the world's largest and most modern women's institution of higher education in a self-contained higher education city.

On 12 June 2011, the new campus was opened in an official ceremony by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, during which he said:

"Women carry a responsibility that is more than a duty, to maintain the stability of society and contribute to building the economy of the nation, and to represent the community and the nation to the highest standards, outside and inside the country. To be the caring mother, exemplary citizen and productive employee. Outside the nation, to be the ambassador of her country and community, and to represent well her religion, faith and our values."

In February 2017, the University was the host of the first-ever opera in Saudi Arabia. The show, "Antar and Alba", was produced by Opera Lebanon

(Arabic: جامعة الأميرة نورة بنت عبد الرحمن‎) is a public women’s university located in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. It is the largest women's university in the world and the largest one in Saudi Arabia.

This is highly needed for separate educational system for female.Princess Nourah Bint Abdul Rahman University is one of the best educational institution for girls those who have eagerness for higher education.

Education is needed for both male and female. If our women remain uneducated they can’t teach their children. So education of female is highly necessary . Similarly we have to emphasize on the environment where women would be able to take their education without any difficulties. Alhamdulillah, Princess Nourah Bint Abdul Rahman University offers these opportunities of its students. So female students bothe native and aboard can take education from here without any hesitation by depending on Almighty.
