Abstract

During the Ottoman organizations period, all the states of the Ottoman Empire witnessed a struggle in the reform of educational institutions, during which the Ottomans used the European model in all administrative aspects. Moreover, Baghdad witnessed a significant increase in the opening of educational institutions for all levels of education, including high schools and universities, albeit to a lesser extent than other Arab states such as Beirut or Syria.

Sultan Abd al-Hamid II had a great role in developing this reform and during his reign the modernization movement witnessed a rush in spite of the problems and disturbances that were afflicting the Ottoman Empire at the time. These universities aimed to graduate a group of elites in all fields, such as law, medicine and engineering, according to the highest standards.
