About Afghanistan

Located in the Middle East, Afghanistan is a landlocked country bordered by Pakistan, Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and China. Afghanistan’s Islamic republic is based in the country’s capital, Kabul, which is also its largest city and the fifth fastest-growing city in the world. The terrain is made up of rugged mountains with some plains in the north and southwest. Its arid to semiarid climate features cold winters and hot summers, which effect the beginning and ending of school for students. With natural gas, petroleum, salt, coal, copper and arable land, Afghanistan is rich with natural resources. Afghanistan also produces some of the finest fruits and nuts in the area, including apricots, pomegranates and melons.

Undergraduate Studies in Afghanistan

Afghanistan contains more than 19 public and more than 75 private institutions of higher education, offering students the ability to learn about a variety of subjects and courses of study. Students are able to get bachelor's degrees, as well as master's degrees. Kabul hosts the majority of these schools, but students are also able to utilize on-line campuses and take classes remotely. For a global education, Kabul is one of the finest examples of multiculturalism around, and students from all over the world are encouraged to apply.

The length of the school year depends on its geographic location. In colder areas, school starts in early March and goes until November. In warmer areas though, school runs from September to June. Numerous religious holidays are observed in Afghanistan, and students are given vacations accordingly.

In Afghanistan, bachelor's degree programs are usually four years, or the equivalent of eight semesters to complete. Graduate programs require that you have an undergraduate degree, finish a master’s thesis or research paper and generally take one to two years. For an MBA, schools often want at least two years of experience in the business world as prerequisite as well.

For an experience in international business, Afghanistan offers an experience that no other country can provide. With an economy growing steadily and quickly, after graduation you’ll find top quality working conditions, a wide range of jobs available and a work ethic unlike any other in Central Asia.
