The Mesopotamian Social Sciences Academy is a co-educational university in Qamishli, the capital of the de facto autonomous region, the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria. The academy opened on 2013 offering classes in criticism and self-criticism, the democratic system and Kurdish language.
The school year has three terms, lasting 3-4 months each. The curriculum consists mainly of history and sociology classes. Jineoloji is also taught there. Teaching is mainly in Kurdish.
There was a book donation drive organised early in the life of the university, which, amongst others, was donated to by AK Press.
