Al Hussein Technical University receives first batch of students

AMMAN — Al Hussein Technical University (HTU), which was established by the Crown Prince Foundation, on Sunday received the first batch of students at its headquarters in the King Hussein Business Park.

The reception ceremony, held in the presence of French Ambassador to Jordan David Bertolotti and students’ families, included guidance sessions on the university’s policy and its values, educational system and plans, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

University President Labib Khadra said that the university is a “turning point” in the Kingdom’s higher education sector, due to the fact that its syllabi include more practical accredited hours. Bertolotti noted that the educational institution has recently signed a cooperation agreement with a French association of technical university institutes to help it establish the energy engineering department.
