If you live, work or study at KAUST, there is a good chance that KAUSTCentral can save you a few clicks, a phone call, or a trip across campus.
KAUSTCentral brings a growing range of campus services and information together in one mobile app. Sign in with your KAUST account and you can quickly reach services you may use every day, without having to remember where each one lives.
No action is required if you already use KAUSTCentral. But if you have not opened it recently, it may be worth another look. There is considerably more inside than you might expect.
Transportation, food, your digital KAUST ID, events, recreation, printing and other campus services can all be reached through KAUSTCentral.
