As the largest university in Palestine, An-Najah University’s century-long history is rife with its willingness to change and adapt to modern times and technology. The school has long been a proponent of utilizing the best of both traditional and unconventional pedagogical methods, and having access to world-class XR solutions will enable them to bring their classrooms into the future of interactive teaching.

"We couldn’t be happier to be a part of the EON Reality family and to set up an EON-XR Center in our University. We see multiple benefits with the deployment of the EON-XR platform for our students, faculty and community since we will become a part of the EON Reality’s Global Academic Community for Remote Learning." Prof Maher Natsheh, the University's President said on this occasion.

“A university with as much history as An-Najah National University is always a privilege to work with, because it shows that their passion for education goes far beyond what we see in the modern classroom. By providing them with a variety of EON-XR solutions, we’ll be able to ensure that An-Najah National University remains one of the top schools in Palestine and beyond for years and decades to come. I believe that this is only the beginning of a wonderful partnership with An-Najah National University.” — Dan Lejerskar, Founder of EON Reality

Through EON-XR, the University’s educators will be able to offer “hands-on” training to their students regardless of location or subject matter. By closing the gap in quality between in-person labs and distance learning via XR solutions, An-Najah can provide the best possible academic experience for those on their Nablus campus as well as those studying remotely.

As EON Reality’s first partner in Palestine, the University offers a variety of new possibilities to the XR veterans as well. While the initial partnership will focus on providing EON-XR solutions for students and faculty, the hope is for EON Reality’s presence in the area to expand the desire for the technology beyond the campus walls and to both educators and employers throughout the entire region.
