Through its official electronic portal, the university provides online services to students at the diploma, advanced diploma, bachelor's, and postgraduate levels.

The system allows currently employed individuals who wish to continue their studies to pursue diplomas, advanced diplomas, and bachelor's degrees on a part-time basis. This initiative reflects the University of Technology and Applied Sciences' commitment to developing knowledge, skills, capabilities, and experiences among society, in alignment with the labor market’s human resource needs.

The University of Technology and Applied Sciences has outlined the requirements and necessary documents for registration in the part-time system. These include a general diploma certificate or its equivalent, proof of completion of the foundation program, a certificate of the last academic qualification obtained after the general diploma (if applicable), and a certified transcript from the previous educational institution (if available). Additionally, applicants for advanced diploma and bachelor's programs must provide a valid IELTS or TOEFL certificate. Employed individuals must submit a data update form from the Ministry of Labor to confirm their employment status, along with a letter of no objection from their employer. A commitment pledge to cover tuition fees, either personally or through a sponsored scholarship, is also required.
