Procurement
Qatar Finance Procurement assists faculty and staff in obtaining timely, high quality products and services at low prices utilizing good business practices and professional ethics.
Like our campus in Pittsburgh, our Qatar campus also has the need to procure a vast array of items necessary to teach, perform research, etc. Therefore, the Qatar Finance department facilitates and performs procurement related activities for our various departments. These activities can include, but are not limited to; purchase order, procurement card and internal campus purchases.
For any procurement related inquiries we encourage you to contact Roula Al Baradee at 4454-8582 or by email
