The University has made extended plans since its establishment in the year 1995 to construct the permanent premises and has exerted great efforts in this respect. Eventually two strategic locations overlooking the old city of Omdurman from the north have been selected. Commuters from Khartoum North could easily reach through Shambat Bridge and those from Khartoum have an easy access through the White Nile Bridge. Both ways cross the inveterate old city of Omdurman to the Medical Building and from there to the west, lies the Engineering and Technological Building complex.
