There has been a growing demand to have graduates who are specialized in pre-school child care to fulfill the educational purposes. With that in mind and based on the decree issued by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud to establish Majmaah University, the Department of Early Childhood Education was founded under the academic departments of the College of Education in Majmaah during the first semester of the academic year 1432/1433 AH.
The duration of study in the Early Childhood Education Department is four years, after which a student is offered an undergraduate degree.
