Student Accommodation Facilities

Female Student Dormitories at Warith Al-Anbiyaa University Capacity: 600 Female Students   1. Vision and Strategic Rationale Based on an ambitious vision aimed at constructing an integrated and sustainable university environment, and under the gracious, wise supervision and guidance of the Representative of the Supreme Religious Authority, His Eminence Sheikh Abdul-Mahdi Al-Karbalai (may his honor endure), the female student dormitories project for Warith Al-Anbiyaa University (peace be upon him) has been successfully completed, praise be to God. This architectural landmark stands as a testament to architectural authenticity in its finest engineering forms, translating into reality the academic and psychological stability that the university is keen to provide for its students.   2. Technical Specifications and Accommodation Capacity This building was entirely constructed, designed, and planned by the hands and minds of the distinguished engineering staff at the university. The data and numerical indicators of the project confirm its magnitude and durability as follows: Total Land Area: A plot of land with an area of (1,500) square meters was allocated for the project. Total Built-up Area: The architectural area extends to approximately (9,000) square meters. Structural Framework: The building consists of (7) vertical levels, including a basement floor, a ground floor, and five consecutive floors. Accommodation Capacity: The building contains (160) fully equipped residential rooms, with a total capacity to accommodate (600) female students.   3. Design Philosophy and Residential Privacy The dormitories building represents a qualitative, distinctive addition and an outstanding architectural milestone in every sense of the word, as the design philosophy was based on two fundamental pillars: Modern Apartments System: The project was designed in the style of contemporary residential apartments with spacious areas, giving female students a warm feeling that emulates the warmth of home and family. Preservation of Privacy: The design took into account the finest details of privacy and comfort by completely isolating the windows and external private yards of the female students from the rest of the passing university facilities and structures, ensuring them an isolated and stable movement.   4. Integrated Vital Service System The design concept did not stop at merely providing shelter and housing, but extended to become an integrated vital system balancing science, activity, and health. Its services are engineerically distributed as follows: Services on Consecutive Floors: Each floor includes halls specially furnished and equipped for studying and reading, alongside bedrooms and advisory offices. Basement Floor Services (Under the Building): This floor is designated to provide a central and comprehensive package of services for female students, including: a central laundry room, the main kitchen and restaurant of the building, a hall designated for events and integrative activities, in addition to a fully equipped gymnasium (Gym) to maintain the physical fitness of the students.   5. Sustainability and Architectural Authenticity The highest standard and international engineering criteria were employed in all planning and execution phases of the building, taking into account two fundamental dimensions: Visual Identity and Authenticity: The design came as a complement to and in harmony with the architectural style of the rest of the university buildings, which is based on using local materials and employing traditional elements inspired by the cultural and civilizational heritage of the local environment. Energy Efficiency and Eco-Friendliness: In line with the university administration's plans to reduce emissions, the principle of reducing energy consumption was adopted—whether at the mechanical level, such as advanced air conditioning systems and their associated electrical consumption, or through the use of eco-friendly construction materials.   6. Safety, Security, and Water Supply Systems Because the security and safety of the female students represent the paramount priority that is non-negotiable, the building has been equipped with the latest preventive technologies: Alarm Systems and Emergency Stairs: The building is equipped with advanced early warning and fire suppression systems, along with two separate and equipped emergency exits on each floor. Thermal Environmental Control: Corridors have been supported with modern technological systems for fresh air circulation and smart thermal control to ensure a healthy indoor environment around the clock. Purified Water System: The building has been equipped with a drinking water filtration and purification plant (a central filtration system) supported by accurately distributed water coolers to serve the female students.   7. University Message The new female dormitories building at Warith Al-Anbiyaa University is a living embodiment of the university's steadfast commitment to always providing the best, creatively combining the quality of daily life and the highest safety standards while preserving the authenticity of architectural identity. This achievement is considered a sincere message of reassurance and peace that we address to the families of our dear female students coming from other governorates of our beloved Iraq, through which the university assures them that this building provides their daughters with safe, stable alternative housing, with the integrated means of comfort and luxury it enjoys across all its facilities, corridors, rest areas, and rooms. These efforts align with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being) by providing healthy living conditions, Goal 4 (Quality Education) by supporting students through stable accommodation, Goal 5 (Gender Equality) by providing safe and supportive residential opportunities, and Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) by enhancing inclusive and sustainable living environments within the campus.
