Since its founding, An-Najah National University has provided Palestinians with first-class educational opportunities. From its establishment as a school in 1918 and then as an independent college in 1941, An-Najah followed a path of continuous development that resulted in its transformation into a full fledged university in 1977. Since that time, the University has considerably expanded its programs offering numerous undergraduate and graduate study fields. Today, An-Najah has over 20,000 students and four campuses.
