Royal University of Fine Arts

The Higher Education Improvement Project – Phase 2 (HEIP 2) is a World Bank–funded initiative implemented by the Royal Government of Cambodia through the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS).

HEIP 2 aims to strengthen institutional capacity, enhance academic programs, foster research and innovation, upgrade physical and digital infrastructure, and promote equitable access to higher education. The project places particular emphasis on STEM, arts and culture, and alignment with labor market needs.

As a participating institution, the Royal University of Fine Arts (RUFA), a Public Administrative Institution, is receiving targeted support to modernize academic programs in the arts and cultural sectors, build administrative and project management capacity, and improve facilities to ensure high-quality teaching and learning.
