Transportation

The collaborative environment of Education City is facilitated by a state-of-the-art, electric tram system that reduces vehicle emissions and moves the campus closer to its sustainability goals. The network of 24 stations and trams connects all the institutions and spaces on campus in an environmentally friendly and convenient way.  

Students can reduce their carbon footprint, even if they choose to live off campus, by using the newly-built Doha metro system. Take a metro train all the way to campus and catch the tram to reach any spot within Education City! 

At VCUarts Qatar, and as a member of the community at Education City, students can play a part in building a more sustainable future.
