While Qatar has been blessed with vast natural resources, our greatest and longest-lasting resource is our people. It is our intellectual wealth that will sustain Qatar’s long-term growth and development. The Higher Education Institute was established to promote our greatest resource. We make sure this happens by helping our students earn scholarships to the best colleges and universities in the world, advising and assisting them in the application process and supporting them during their studies and after graduation. The Higher Education Institute is committed to making sure that Qatari students are equipped with the skills they need to be more competitive today and ultimately more successful in tomorrow’s world.

The HEI main objectives are to:

  • Meet workforce needs
  • Develop language, critical thinking and problem-solving skills
  • Develop high potential students to prepare them for leadership roles
  • Promote international awareness of business systems and culture
  • Give flexibility to the best and brightest Qatari students to allow them to pursue interests in fields that benefit society and the economy directly.
