Language used in the KFUPM is English
so that students do not need to have the ability to Arabic. Civitas

seminar, workshop or short course was held with our
materials from a variety of institutions.

working days Saturday to Wednesday. Each class session usually be 75
minutes. Spring semester is February to June while the Fall

can apply for a Research Assistant / RA (to apply for S2) or
Lecturer-B (for applying for S3).
Acceptance of new students is done twice a year at the Spring

Lecturer o-B can get a house allowance of SAR 8,000 per year if

home eliminated.
- Free medical service in the Medical Center campus and 50% subsidy for

RA / Lecturer-B may also participate in the funded project and
acquire additional SAR around 500 per month. Funded project to

SAR can reach about 1,000 per month. As part of the
participation in the project funded, RA / Lecturer-B is also an opportunity
for publication in journals or seminars either regional or
international. Among the institutions that have research cooperation
KFUPM is with Saudi Aramco, SABIC (the largest public company in
Saudi Arabia), Saudi Telecom Company, and King Abdul Aziz City for
Science and Technology.

Publications are also supported for example through financial assistance
to attend the conference. In years 1996-2006 the range KFUPM
have recorded in the 3800 publication of the journals indexed CONTENTS
with the rank 111 of 939 institutions based on the amount of paper in
field of engineering. As a comparison, in the time range
same Universiti Malaya and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia
each has a 3340 and 1335 publications. While
universities in Indonesia have not reached the 1000 publication.

In addition, all departments have been accredited at KFUPM by ABET
(a non-profit institutions in the United States, which is known to give
accreditation for institutions of education in science and
technology). Recently KFUPM also ranked 330an
the ranking list issued by the prestigious THE-QS (times
higher education) and is the first university of the region
achieve the rank so that claimed to be the best university in East middle.

RA / Lecturer-B has an obligation to assist the operational departments
or university. Some examples of common assignment given
Practice or is teaching the class S1, oversee the test, the task
administration and the like. So there is a kind of contract between
students and KFUPM; contract is signed before the need to
departure. Almost all S2/S3 students (non-part time) from outside the Arab
Saudi has this status.
