History of the College of Arts (now College of Humanities)
The College of Arts was established on August 31, 1971, at the University of Sulaymaniyah in Sulaymaniyah city. At that time, it only included the Department of Kurdish Language.
Later, during the academic year 1974/1975, the Department of Sociology was opened. Following that, in the academic year 1976/1977, the Department of Arabic Language was inaugurated.
In 1981, the College of Arts, along with the university, was relocated to Erbil city. From that point on, the university’s name was changed from the University of Sulaymaniyah to Salahaddin University. By then, the College of Arts consisted of three departments: Kurdish Language, Arabic Language, and Sociology.
During the academic year 1985-1986, both the History Department and the English Language Department were opened. In the academic year 1986-1987, the Geography Department was also established.
Afterward, in the academic year 1995-1996, the Department of Islamic Studies was added. Then, in the academic year 1998-1999, the Department of Persian Language was opened. For the academic year 2000-2001, the Department of Archaeology and the Evening English Language Department were opened. Later, in the academic year 2002-2003, evening branches were opened in the Departments of Sociology, Kurdish, History, and Geography. For the academic year 2003-2004, the Department of Translation and the Evening Arabic Language Department were opened.
Transformation and Expansion
The College of Arts underwent significant changes and developments throughout its history. Following this expansion and growth, in the academic year 2004-2005, the language departments were separated from our college and became the College of Languages. Similarly, the Department of Islamic Studies was separated from our college in the academic year 2004-2005, and a new college named the College of Islamic Sciences was formed from it. As a result of these major changes, the name of the College of Arts was changed to the College of Humanities in the academic year 2003-2004.
Further Department Openings and Name Reversion
After this separation, the Department of Media was opened in the academic year 2004-2005, the Department of Philosophy in the academic year 2007-2008, the Department of Social Work in the academic year 2007-2008, and the Department of Psychology in the academic year 2009-2010, all within the College of Arts.
In the academic year 2017-2018, the College Council requested that the college’s name be changed back to its old name. Consequently, in the academic year 2018-2019, its name was changed back to the College of Arts.
Current Structure
Currently, the College of Arts consists of eight departments, which are: Sociology, History, Geography, Archaeology, Media, Philosophy, Social Work, and Psychology.
