An environment where excellence in curiosity-driven and goal-oriented research thrive. Through our endowment, we provide flexible and sustained support to pursue long-term research and scientific goals. Our people are empowered and encouraged to aim high and investigate important questions with passion and freedom. Few universities enjoy this level of consistent support. In return, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance, behavior, and ethics.2. A global DNA that bridges people, ideas and traditions from around the world. This is reflected in: (a) our diverse and international university community of faculty, students, and staff; (b) strategic and sustained collaborations with key institutions across the world; and (c) commitment to contribute to the welfare of society by placing special emphasis on areas of strategic importance to the world.3. Cross-disciplinary organization between Academic Divisions and Research Centers. While leveraging disciplinary excellence, our matrix structure of three Academic Divisions encompassing multiple disciplines and eleven strategically connected Research Centers encourage our faculty, researchers and students to be entrepreneurial and free-spirited while pursuing research that translates science into discoveries and new technologies.4. Unparalleled laboratory facilities, equipment and expertise. We provide our people and our research partners the opportunity to conduct experimental research in an empowering environment with exceptional facilities, equipment, and support staff. Our ability to sustain these exceptional facilities over the long term is an important competitive advantage over other institutions.5. Collaborative learning environment and a distinctive educational experience.

Through the spirit of discovery, we promote collaboration, excellence, curiosity, integrity, and a passion for doing things that matter.6. Innovation and technology development for public benefit. We contribute to the cultivation of a knowledge and innovation-driven economy. Our Research and Technology Park is physically and organizationally integrated within the University to facilitate corporate interactions, innovation, knowledge transfer and economic development. Leveraging ideas from around the world, KAUST is positioned to accelerate both early-stage and market-ready technologies.7. A work-play-live environment.
