Frontier University Garowe was originally founded in 2011 and began offering academic programmes the same year. Today, it is one of the leading private universities in Somalia, with a steadily growing student population.
The university is located in Mogadishu, the capital and most populous city of Somalia.
The university is comprised of five faculties: Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science, Faculty of Economics, Management, and Social Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, and the Faculty of Security Studies, Justice and Ethics. Each faculty is divided into different departments offering a range of both undergraduate and graduate degree programmes.
In 2016, the university established its International Relations Office, which is responsible for developing partnerships with other higher education institutions across the globe. Through these partnerships, the university facilitates academic and research collaborations, as well as study abroad programmes for students.
There are 10 student clubs on offer, as well as more than 25 public events hosted throughout the academic year such as seminars and workshops.
