The Architecture Department in the College of Architectural Engineering and Digital Design, at Dar AlUloom University, DAU, has been prepared to welcome the third visit of the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is scheduled during Fall, 2018.   The Bachelor of Architecture (B. Arch.) degree offered by the Program of Architecture at Dar Al Uloom University is in the process of being reviewed and assessed by the NAAB’s Substantial Equivalency (SE) program. The term “Substantial Equivalency” identifies a program as comparable in educational outcomes in all significant aspects to a U.S.-based program accredited by the NAAB and indicates that it provides an educational experience meeting acceptable standards, even though such program may differ in format or method of delivery. As part of the final stage of the SE process, DAU will welcome a NAAB assessment team for visit three in fall 2018. The SE designation is valid for six years beginning 1 January of the year in which the final visit (visit three) took place.   DAU is always committed to support their students and build a very high standard educational environment to assure that all the students are highly qualified and ready for real Professional practice. The College of Architectural Engineering and Digital Design has been accommodated in a newly unique building, designed and equipped with very high standards and state of the art technologies in terms of  labs, studios, classrooms, library, theater, and all the physical resources, together with distinguished faculty members and great support by the college and university administration.
