The college is about seven kilometers distance from the City Centre. It was established as a Teacher College in 1985 to offer a two-year diploma in education. In 1995 the College started to offer a four-year Degree of Education Course, and it was renamed Salalah College of Education.The College organized many events and participated in many programs and students activities such as seminars, lectures, workshops, cultural events, sports and scouts events.The College also, adopts many community service projects, and supports research conducted by its academic staff in and outside Oman.
As the student is the central focus of the educational process, he is its fruit and the goal of its existence. Preparing students for life and its challenges now and in the future is our primary goal. On this basis, the college is working on producing a graduate equipped with theoretical knowledge, practical experience and positive behavior, and able to put them into practice for his personal and social development by providing him with high quality education according to international standards, developing the level of academic services provided for students, improving and developing the academic programs in line with the labor market needs as well as adopting a philosophy of self-learning in problem-solving and lifelong learning.

CAS aspires to gain national recognition as an applied sciences hub, providing practical and innovative solutions for the ever-changing local and national needs.The Mission of the CAS is the provision of targeted programs that produce graduates responsive to the changing needs of the labour market, supportive to the national plans by contributing to the achievement of sustainable development.
Students admitted into the foundation programme of the colleges of Applied Sciences are required to sit for an English placement test at the beginning of the first semester which is carried out in the Orientation week of the Autumn Semester.They will be streamed into four levels (A, B, C, and D) in light of their performance on the test. Streaming is helpful in determining students skills that require improvement and also in shaping the extra-curricular activities and teaching methods used each level.
The Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT) degree is a 4 year 128 credit hour program taught in English, designed to produce graduates who are competent in their major disciplines, as well as IT in general; graduates who are ready to be involved in the development of Omani industry. As the name "Colleges of Applied Sciences" suggests, our students are exposed to significant practical work and, where possible, linkages with Omani industry are being developed and exploited.The BIT is offered in the CAS campuses of Sohar, Ibri, Rustaq, Sur, and Salalah.
The BIT program contains a core of main stream IT courses which expose our graduates to the concepts and topics about which all who work in the IT field should be familiar. Typically, web design and development; software design and implementation; information systems analysis and design; operating systems; networks; database; IT security; professional ethics; and such analytical courses as discrete mathematics and data structures. IT is a fast moving field however, and so space has been left in the program which can be filled with the innovations of the time; ensuring our graduates are aware of the latest IT trends. Presently the four majors of the BIT are Software Development, Data Management, IT Security, and Networks. The majors permit our students to explore their chosen field in greater depth with the addition of highly focused and specialised courses.
The IT Faculty of The Colleges of Applied Sciences aspires to be the IT faculty of choice for school leavers in the Sultanate, to be a prime resource of expertise and training for Omani industry, and to be respected regionally and internationally for the quality of our staff, students and graduates.
We will graduate work-ready youth with a reliable work ethic and the knowledge and skills appropriate for industry; they will be the result of a modern, relevant, engaging and challenging programme delivered through a variety of learning methods. We will provide an environment that encourages student, faculty, alumni, and public participation. We will attain national and international accreditation in preparation for higher academic status.
