Capital University of Somalia (CUS) is a private higher education institution located in Mogadishu, Somalia. Established in 2013, it aims to provide quality education to Somali students, focusing on both academic excellence and practical skills.
After the collapse of Somali central government in 1991, the devastating effect of civil war making the country a failed state for more than two decades and the subsequent complete destruction of the educational system had led the idea to establish the Capital University on 14th May, 2013. This was on the grounds of long activity of a team of Somali professionals whose aim was to resurrect the educational institutions starting from establishing schools first in the past 10 years and now with the vision to fulfill the high school leaving students’ dream in getting a higher education.
