Health and Safety at KFUPM
Our university prioritizes the well-being of its students, faculty, and staff through a high level of care that combines expertise, compassion, and high ethical standards. From accessible medical care at the on-campus Medical Center to around-the-clock campus security, every measure is in place to protect and support your well-being.
Complete Medical and Wellness Services
Our on-site, multi-specialty Medical Center provides an extensive array of healthcare services designed to meet the needs of the entire KFUPM community. That includes specialized clinics, laboratories, a pharmacy, an Emergency Room, and a Saudi Red Crescent Unit.
Whether for routine check-ups, preventative care, or treatment, our licensed physicians ensure that every patient receives care that meets the highest standards of quality and safety. We also partner with local healthcare agencies to extend our services for more complex or emergency conditions, ensuring that our community always has access to the support it needs.
Health Education and Support
Beyond medical care, we promote awareness and a healthy lifestyle through proactive health education and physical activities across campus. Our goal is to empower individuals to make informed choices about their well-being, both physically and mentally.
For students needing help with managing their courseload or assistance with their education, the Learning Support Unit (LSU) can help. Our Counseling and Advising Unit (CAAC) further offers confidential counseling to support students throughout their academic journey.
Access Our Medical Center
All our medical services are free of charge for KFUPM students. International and exchange students can access the same high-quality care with valid health insurance.
