As the Kingdom’s need for language teaching increases, it is incumbent upon the College of Languages and Translation to provide citizens with the language skills necessary to support the communicative needs of the economic, scientific, and intellectual sectors of the country. The College was first established as a branch of The college of Arts in 1977. It was called The European Languages and Translation Center. In 1990, it was transformed into the Institute of Languages and Translation; in 1994, the Institute was renamed the College of Languages and Translation. This change was urged by the wish to emphasize the high status of the Kingdom among the nations and to lay the foundation for the strong and unique relations it enjoys with international communities.
