Ajloun National University - ANU

What Ajloun National University - ANU does

Ajloun National University (ANU) is a private higher education institution headquartered in Ajloun in northern Jordan, with a liaison office in Amman. ANU was founded in 2009 and operates with a small core staff in the 11-50 employee range. The university serves undergraduate and graduate students seeking Jordanian higher education credentials, with a regional catchment in northern Jordan and an international dimension emerging through Erasmus+ partnerships.

ANU's academic portfolio spans 7-9 faculties, including business, information technology, engineering, medical sciences, and a specialized Department of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. Programs are delivered across undergraduate and graduate levels. Operational technology includes a Moodle-based Learning Management System (LMS) and a Student Information System (SIS) for academic administration, a Koha library management platform backed by a collection of approximately 33,859 volumes, and an EBSCO database subscription supporting research and instruction. These systems are standard for the segment rather than differentiated.

ANU's revenue model is tuition-driven, with limited public financial disclosure. The university has built auxiliary units including an E-Learning Center (circa 2020-2021), a Water and Environment Research Center (2022), and a Counseling and Community Service Center to support academic specialization and student services. International engagement includes an Erasmus+ partnership with Bogdan Voda University of Cluj-Napoca in Romania. No fundraising, external investment, or grant revenue stream is publicly disclosed.
