Khost University (Template:Lang-ps), officially known as Shaikh Zayed University ('SZU; Template:Lang-ps), is a public university in the city of Khost, southeastern Afghanistan. It was established in 2000, temporarily in Peshawar (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan), with its original name Afghan University Peshawar. It was shifted from Peshawar to Khost by special orders of former President Hamid Karzai.
Khost university was officially registered in 2003, the first president of the khost university was Faiz Mohammad Fayaz. The work on the university was officially started during Hakim Taniwal governship of Khost province. The next Governor Patan made a trip to UAE (United Arab Emirates), and requested funds for the completion of the university. In order to honor UAE's help, the university was named Shaikh Zayed University. Governor Patan had a track record for opening schools, and supporting education for all genders, so it was only natural for him to push for the construction of Shaik Zayad's University. The University new campus was officially inaugurated in March, 2008.
Shaikh Zayad's University has nine faculties and more than 3000 students. It has a private radio station for journalism faculty. It is the only university in Afghanistan with a faculty in computer science. It has a hostel for students, and medical students are trained at the government-run Khost Hospital.
