Welcome To Galmudug State University

Galmudug State University (GSU) is a prestigious institution situated in Galmudug State, within the Federal Republic of Somalia. Established in 2014, the university owes its inception to the generous support of the UK DFID grant, which was awarded through Comic Relief. This grant aimed to enhance education and foster development in Central Somalia. The initial phase of this transformative initiative involved the allocation of funds to SIMAD University, enabling the establishment of a dedicated campus for teacher training in Galmudug State. 

Since its founding, GSU has made remarkable strides in expanding its academic offerings

It currently encompasses eight faculties, each offering a diverse range of programs and courses. The university takes pride in its student body, which currently comprises approximately 1,000 individuals. Notably, 80% of these enrolled students hail from Central Somalia, with the remaining 20% representing various other regions across Somalia. GSU stands as a testament to the transformative power of education, empowering individuals from diverse backgrounds to acquire knowledge, skills, and competencies necessary for personal growth and national development. With its commitment to academic excellence, GSU continues to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of higher education in Galmudug State and contributing to the overall progress of Somalia.
