Al-Qasim Green University

Al-Qasim Green University is a relatively young institution having been established in 2012. It is located in Al-Qasim in 바카라사이트 Babil province, around 80 miles south of Baghdad in Iraq.

It was started as part of a higher education ministry plan to create specialised institutions to drive development in Iraq¡¯s regions.

It was initially called Al-Qasim Al-Khadra University. It started with faculties of agriculture and veterinary science from 바카라사이트 nearby University of Babylon, along with newly-formed schools of biotechnology; food science; environmental science and water resource engineering.
