Vision

A pioneering knowledge-producing university that contributes to sustainable development and global Competition

Mission

We, the University of Baghdad, are an integrated system of scientific and humanities colleges, institutes, and long-standing research centres. We believe that human building is the basis for the existence of generations capable of leading society and building the nation. Its purpose is manifested in learning, teaching, research, and community service by providing a stimulating university environment, distinguished human resources, and curricula that are compatible with the requirements of the labor market. Such a purpose helps prepare qualified graduates and leads the university to be characterized by its minds, scientists, and innovators, and its openness to society to achieve partnership and sustainable development,  emphasizing ultimately the integration of theoretical and applied knowledge, and global competition.
