Abstract
This chapter explores the unstable situation of Syrian higher education in the aftermath of 13 years of ongoing conflict. As the nation grapples with the ramifications of war, its educational institutions have been significantly damaged, leading to a condition of limbo for students, professors, and administrators alike. Drawing on an in-depth examination of the obstacles faced, including infrastructure destruction, brain drain, and ideological upheavals, this chapter examines the complex processes determining the contemporary status of Syrian higher education. Furthermore, it discusses alternative pathways for rebuilding and rejuvenating the industry, highlighting the important significance of international collaboration and innovative concepts in navigating the path forward.
