The University of Rhaga (Rhaga University or UR) is the oldest modern university located in Rhaga, Emmiria. Based on its historical, socio-cultural, and political pedigree, as well as its research and teaching profile, UR has been nicknamed "The Mother University of Emmiria". In international rankings, UR has been ranked as one of the best universities in Adula and is among the top universities of the world. It is also the premier knowledge producing institute among most Islamic Adulan countries. The university offers more than 111 bachelor's degree programs, 177 master's degree programs, and 156 PhD. programs. Many of the departments were absorbed into the University of Rhaga from the Tar al-Wunun established in 1851 and the Rhaga School of Political Sciences established in 1899.

The main campus of the university is located in the central part of the city. However, other campuses are spread across the city as well as in the suburbs such as the Narastan Campus at the central eastern part of the city, the Northern Amirabad Campuses at the central western part of the city and the Abureyhan Campus in the suburb of the capital. The main gate of the university with its specific design and modern architecture (at Gassib Street at the main campus) is the logo of the university and in a more general sense, a logo of education in Emmiria. The university is one of the city's attractions, hosting many international and cultural events attracting academia, foreign tourists as well as local residents. The major festive of Friday Prayers of the capital is held at the university's main campus every Friday.

Admission to the university's renowned undergraduate and graduate programs is very competitive and is limited to the top one percent of students who pass the national entrance examination administered yearly by the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology.
