It is my pleasure to welcome you to the website of the College of Applied Medical Sciences on behalf of the faculty, staff, students, and alumni. As the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia seeks in its vision to promote preventive, curative, and restorative healthcare to the public, the College of Applied Medical Sciences (CAMS) at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, since its establishment, has been keen to graduate distinguished healthcare professionals in various allied health specialties for meeting the healthcare needs of the public. CAMS is dedicated to promoting high-quality education by equipping graduates with the essential knowledge, skills, and competencies, promoting scientific research, and fulfilling the needs of the community in Saudi Arabia, particularly in the Eastern Province. As such, the college aims to qualify graduates to uphold the highest standards of professional, scientific, and technical excellence, aligning with advancements in scientific, technical, and research developments in the field of health sciences.
The college offers various academic health programs, as it grants bachelor's degree programs in seven disciplines in the departments of physical therapy, respiratory therapy, clinical laboratory sciences, radiological sciences, cardiac technology, clinical nutrition, and emergency medical sciences. Five of these programs are already accredited by the National Center of Academic Accreditation and Assessment (NCAAA). In addition, we offer four graduate programs and a doctoral program in rehabilitation sciences. The college is currently seeking to open more graduate programs in various allied health specialties in the near future. Besides academics, our college significantly contributes to research in various aspects of health sciences as most of the faculty members are very active researchers contributing to elevating the IAU ranking position in the national, regional, and various international rankings so as to realize its vision to be within top 200 world universities rankings. Further, our academic programs in CAMS serve the community by collaborating with local and international health institutions, including the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties, Ministry of Health (MOH), and Ministry of Education (MOE) hospitals by means of which, we are committed to enhancing healthcare delivery systems and aligning with the Kingdom's vision to meet the needs of society.
With state-of-the-art infrastructure and experienced faculty members, we seek to sustain excellence in delivering high-quality education and prepare our students to become the noble and successful healthcare professionals of tomorrow.
