PrefaceInformation is crucial for decision-making and for determining specialization and track. It becomes most important when it is related to the academic future of thousands of undergraduate and postgraduate students and to thousands of university professors. It is within this context that King Abdulaziz University has published this comprehensive bulletin to serve as a reliable guide and academic road map not only for its own students but to
all new high school graduates, to help them take confident steps to realize their desired goals.
This vision has been ever present throughout the course of this bulletin. Users will find it different from previous editions. It is meant to project the uniqueness and progress
of King Abdulaziz University, which bears the name
of the founder of Saudi Arabia, as shown by its model achievements and its ever-developing strategies and mission.
Throughout this academic year (2009-2010), the bulletin editorial team has exerted and organized its efforts meticulously towards getting this latest edition
published in a more modern, user-friendly and comprehensive format. The content has been carefully organized to reflect the high academic status the University has achieved and to project its real- time mission to serve community developments at the highest standards. We have strived to make this bulletin comparable to those of world-class universities in terms of academic content and technical standards of printing and publication.
Special thanks are extended to the University administration for their continued support and for the personal followup by the President of the University and Vice President for Development. Their encouragement has motivated us to exert double efforts to publish both Arabic and English editions of the bulletin simultaneously. Thanks are also due to our colleagues in all faculties for their contribution and their professional cooperation. My special thanks and appreciation goes to all members of the editorial team who have worked with me and endured the pressures and hardships involved in managing this large-scale project. I thank them
for their tremendous efforts,
dedication, and devotion to their University. May this bulletin be a useful and comprehensive guide to everyone.
