Sebha University, located in the city of Sabha, Libya, has a rich history that began in 1976 when it was established as a branch of the University of Tripoli. Initially, it consisted only of the faculties of education and sciences, which served as a nucleus for the future independent university. In 1983, it gained autonomy and became Sebha University, taking on a broader range of faculties and academic programmes.
