Mutah University was founded in 1981 by a Royal Decree as a national institution for civil and military higher education. The University started functioning in its military wing in the year 1984 on its permanent site at Mutah in the Karak governerate, 135km South of Amman. It is only 12km away from the Karak Castle, a rich historical and archaeological treasure in the south.
On February 2, 1985, His Majesty King Hussien Bin Talal inaugurated the University of Mutah on the site of Mutah, the land of rich history and great sacrifices, to add to the sources that provide the nation with highly qualified graduates in various areas of specializations.
In 1986, the Council of Higher Education decided that a civilian wing be established at Mutah University to respond to the needs of the local community in particular and the country's needs in general in terms of:
1- Creating opportunities for higher education, improving its quality, and promoting its level.
2-Providing the country with specialists in the fields of science, technology, arts, and fine arts to meet future challenges.
3- Deepening the students' national loyalty as well as developing their talents and emphasizing traits of leadership and productive citizenship.
4- Encouraging scientific research, especially that which is necessary for the industries in the southern part of the country.
The Civilian Wing at Mutah comprises, in addition to the Deanship of Research and Higher Studies, twelve academic faculties.
