Recognizing the value placed on integrating engineering and business related programs, it was decided to proceed, inline with the University mission, with an academic structure that comprises five schools; three in engineering, one in business, and one in management of technology at the graduate level. These are:

• School of Communication & Information Technology
• Graduate School of Management of Technology
• School of Business
• School of Engineering & Applied Sciences
• School of Petroleum Engineering & Mining (future expansion)

These schools will cooperate in delivering a wide-range of interdisciplinary programs that meet society’s need for highly qualified personnel in a dynamically changing market place.

Nile University also hosts three centers to support its academic programs, research activities and its far-reaching mission. The first is in support of interdisciplinary applied research, the second is to promote and support entrepreneurship, and incubation of startup companies and the third center is to promote innovation and protection of intellectual property rights.
