Doha: Qatar University’s (QU) Gulf Studies Center (GSC) has developed rapidly in just a few years as it aims to advance in-depth knowledge of issues related to the Gulf region.
The center works on fostering thoughtful dialogue among students, scholars, and practitioners of Gulf affairs. It facilitates the free flow of ideas and knowledge, thus promoting scholarly interest in the region.
It aims to achieve this by offering multidisciplinary postgraduate academic programs and innovative research.
