Oldest Universities in Afghanistan

Introduction

What are the oldest Universities in Afghanistan? uniRank answers this question by publishing a list of 96 Afghan Universities sorted by year of foundation and meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

  • being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate Afghan higher education-related organization
  • offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
  • delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

uniRank aims to highlight which Afghan Universities have the longest history and tradition and whether this correlates to their uniRank University Ranking.
