Our campus life

The Georgetown's campus in Qatar is an architectural marvel. Each university building in Education City has a unique name based on their structure and the University values. The building that houses Hoyas is called the 'Humanitarium' building. This has to do with the School of Foreign Service that focuses on humanitarian affairs. The building is famous for its vast amount of trees and sunlight.
