Homs University

The university was established in 1979 as Al-Baath University under Hafez al-Assad's Presidential Decree No. 44 during the Ba'athist era. As of 2005 the University had 22 faculties, 5 intermediate institutes, 40,000 regular students, around 100,000 students and 1400 faculty members. The library contains some 63,000 volumes (as of 2011). Following the fall of the Assad regime, the university was renamed to "Homs University" by interim prime minister Mohammed al-Bashir of the Syrian caretaker government on 25 December 2024. ==Gallery==
