Overview<\/h2>\n

Amoud University is a well-known public university in Borama, Somaliland, established in 1998. It started with 66 students and two faculties and has since expanded into a multi-faculty institution with a growing student body of about 5,000+ learners across roughly fifteen faculties and schools. Built on a mission focused on peace, development, and community service, Amoud University aims to connect academic training with real-world needs in the region.<\/p>\n

The university includes a dedicated College of Health Sciences, alongside faculties such as Engineering, Agriculture, Business, Education, Computing, Law, and Public Administration.
