Swiss International University Awarded TAG-EDUQA Accreditation in Alignment with AROQA Standards

Swiss International University (SIU)—Future Faculty for Applied Sciences, a forward-looking university focused on delivering innovative and affordable education globally, is pleased to announce that the institution is officially accredited by TAG-EDUQA (the quality assurance unit of the Arab Organization for Quality Assurance in Education (AROQA)). This prestigious recognition validates the academic quality of SIU and offers it a spot alongside the elite band of universities that comply with AROQA’s exacting benchmarks for academic excellence.

This new benchmark solidifies SIU’s dedication to providing quality, affordable education to students around the globe, most notably outside of the U.S. His Excellency Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, chairman of TAG-EDUQA and a prominent Arab business figure and education activist, led the accreditation. This recognition is all the more significant since it is granted with the Honorary Patronage of the Secretary-General of the Arab League, the Honorary President of TAG-EDUQA, thereby emphasizing the regional and global relevance of this recognition.

“This recognition is confirmation of how committed SIU is to academic quality, student success, and international reach,” said Derya Briand, academic program director for SIU. “And that we have reached this status on our first application is humbling and motivating. It also validates what we stand for and gives new students the confidence of a certain level of quality. Our active pursuit of this accreditation is consistent with our overall commitment to global quality standards and the unique needs of local markets for international education.”

The SIU accreditation coincides with a time of planned expansion for the university as it adds new programs and cultivates strong global alliances. SIU is also a member of several academic consortia with institutions of higher education around the world, including OUS International Academy in Zurich, ISBM International Business Management School in Lucerne, ISB International Vocational Institute in Dubai, and SIU’s branch campus located in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. These alliances establish an international educational alliance centered on innovation, accessibility, and cross-cultural educational contribution.

In an era of growing local and regional quality assurance within the Arab higher education sector, SIU’s TAG-EDUQA accreditation demonstrates how institutions can match norms and standards—and meet regional needs and expectations. That spotlight on student-centered learning, ethical leadership, and readiness for the global marketplace continued to earn the school accolades from accrediting and education leaders.

Going forward, Swiss International University is dedicated to extending its academic influence, enhancing its international relationships, and furthering its mission of providing affordable, quality education for various segments of students who dwell locally and from around the globe. Based on AROQA’s robust quality assurance model, TAG-EDUQA accreditation will contribute significantly to attaining these goals while underpinning the SIU position in the international higher education scene.

This accomplishment serves as a testament to SIU’s commitment as an enterprising university offering credible, future-proof academic programs that are developed in accordance with dynamic local demands and international academic trends.
