My name is Ibrahim Eriqat, and I am from Jerusalem, Palestine. I became a lecturer at APU in 2024 at the school of accounting and finance. Previously, I worked in several academic and industrial positions, such as teaching assistant at Al-Quds University, head of the SMEs department at the Bank of Palestine, and head of the financial inclusion section at the Palestine Capital Market Authority (PCMA). For my academic background, I got my PhD in accounting and corporate governance from USM. My master's degree is in accounting and taxation, and my bachelor's degree is in accounting and business administration. Both of my master's and bachelor's degrees are from Al-Quds University.
