University History
A number of faculties affiliated with the University of Aleppo were established in Idlib governorate after the increase in the number of students studying in the governorate, to reduce the burden on the University of Aleppo and also to increase the number of students studying in the governorate, as a number of colleges and intermediate institutes were established in them, which remained administratively affiliated with the University of Aleppo.
Idlib governorate during the Syrian civil war in 2011 witnessed many events, and it was administratively outside the control of the Syrian government, but the faculties remained affiliated with the University of Aleppo until the announcement of the establishment of Idlib University in 2015 to become relatively independent from the University of Aleppo, and a large number of colleges and institutes were created to meet the needs of the governorate.
