APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Ramallah – 29 June 2021. Graduation Ceremony for the 45th and 46th Cohorts of Birzeit University in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

STORYLINE

Birzeit University has started its graduation celebrations for the forty-fifth and forty-sixth cohorts of its students.

Birzeit University is governed by an autonomous Board of Trustees (BoT) consisting of academics and professionals from the Palestinian community and the Diaspora. It is managed by a set of councils that work together to maintain the university’s academic and day-to-day affairs.

Over a century, what began as a small girls’ school in Birzeit town has become the most prestigious Palestinian university, transforming Palestinian higher education through its impact on community awareness, culture and resistance. Birzeit University has been a thorn in the side of the occupation, insisting on playing its role of enlightenment and creating a multicultural Palestinian society on the campus grounds.
