Что это такое?

Education City is a huge campus on the outskirts of Doha where some of the world's most famous universities have built branch campuses right next to each other. Students from Qatar and from countries all around the world come here to study science, medicine, art, engineering, and much more - all in one place.

Расскажите подробнее

Education City is managed by the Qatar Foundation and covers about 14 square kilometres - almost the size of a small town. Inside you can find campuses of universities from the United States, France, and the United Kingdom, all teaching in their own languages and styles but right next to each other. It is like a village of different schools from different countries.

The Qatar National Library sits at the heart of Education City. It is one of the most beautiful modern libraries in the world, designed to look like an open book from above. Inside it holds millions of books and digital resources and has special sections for children with storytelling areas and interactive displays.

Education City is also home to sports facilities, art studios, an innovation hub for young inventors, and a science and technology park. The campus hosts concerts, film screenings, and exhibitions open to the public. The idea is that learning should be exciting, open, and at the centre of Qatar's future - and Education City puts that idea into a physical place.
