Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah on Wednesday launched the construction of the first women-only university in the conservative Islamic state.
The Princess Noura Bint Abdelrahman University for Girls will offer courses in subjects like medicine, pharmacy, management, computer sciences and languages that women find difficulty in studying in normal universities where strict gender segregation is enforced.
This is a real step forward, we do hope to see more in the future and we welcome the positive step taken the King Abdullah.
