Overview

In Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University is dedicated to advancing scientific research both locally and globally, contributing to global security and stability, which in turn impacts economic growth, public health, and the well-being of societies. Through the university's Deanship of Scientific Research and Libraries, we recognize the critical role of scientific research in addressing societal challenges and developing evidence-based solutions.
