A Message from the Dean of the College
Physical education and sports science are not merely academic disciplines, but rather a fundamental and vital pillar of the integrated public education system. They are the vessel that builds and refines character, an important medium of communication, and a vital outlet for everyone. Our mission is to develop our students physically, psychologically, and socially in a holistic manner within an academic environment imbued with patriotism and a love of knowledge, culminating in purposeful recreation. This process is managed by sports institutions with a rigorous academic and scientific approach. In this context, the college emphasizes that the educational process is an indivisible whole. While we give great attention to the classrooms dedicated to theoretical lessons, we have not neglected the vital practical aspect, given its crucial importance in the field of sports. Thanks be to God, significant efforts have been made, with the direct support and guidance of the University President, Professor Dr. Hassan Shaker Magdy. This commitment has manifested itself in overcoming all obstacles and providing on-site and administrative supervision for all college facilities and its pillars: the faculty, our esteemed students, and all its affiliates.
The College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences is the true source upon which we rely to prepare professors and specialists capable of serving their nation and community with competence and capability. We also strive to be the primary source of distinguished players, referees, and coaches for our national teams, clubs, and federations, both locally and internationally. The college operates from this ambitious vision, aligned with the plans, mission, and objectives of the university and the ministry, recognizing that we represent the bright sporting face of the university of the future. In conclusion, we pray to God Almighty to grant us all success and to make us a driving force in building an Iraq that flourishes with dignity, piety, goodness, and prosperity. He is the All-Hearing, the Responsive.
