UK Education Tour Autumn 2012:
Erbil & Sulaymaniyah

UK Education Tour's mission is to introduce highly qualified, internationally-focussed students to British universities, colleges and quality language schools. Our events are 100% UK focussed, and promote the UK through Studybritish.com, social and traditional media to reach the target segment for UK education.

We will be beginning the Tour in Sulaymaniyah, a vibrant commercial city in the east of the region, and home to the Univeristy of Sulaymaniyah. We will then head to Erbil, capital of Iraqi Kurdistan and one of the oldest continually-inhabited cities in the world. As well as the University of Salahaddin, there are several public and private universities in Erbil and surrounding cities. 

The Human Capacity Development Program in Higher Education (HCDP) is an ambitious program that aims to develop human capacities in Kurdistan Region in the field of higher education. An annual KRG budget of one hundred and twenty billion dinars (GBP62 million) is allocated to the scheme. It provides an opportunity for thousands of distinguished young men and women to continue their education in internationally renowned universities. Over 60% of the students awarded scholarships so far have travelled to the UK.
