What is the ruling on studying in mixed-gender universities and at Mutah University's military wing in Jordan?
Studying in co-educational universities requires caution and maintaining a lowered gaze to avoid seeing objectionable things and becoming accustomed to them.
One must consider the extent of their need for such studies and the possibility of dispensing with them through distance learning or attending only for exams, which is preferable.
If there is a dire need to study in them, then it is permissible, provided one adheres to lowering the gaze and observes the -compliant regulations when interacting with female students.
One should fortify themselves through marriage if possible, associate with knowledge circles and righteous company, engage in Islamic activities, observe voluntary fasting, and read books of encouragement and softeners of the heart.
To know the specific ruling regarding a particular university, it is advisable to ask the people of knowledge in the questioner's country.
