The Deanship of Research and
Graduate Studies was founded at the onset of the
academic year 1996/1997, almost a year after the
practical beginning of the University itself. This
simultaneity is a testimony to the vital role of
research and graduate studies in developing numerous
academic aspects inside the University, and in
enhancing the University's capability to fulfill its
national and international commitments. More
specifically, Research and Graduate Studies play
significant roles in:
● Developing the society
● Expanding the academic staff's areas of knowledge
and developing their learned abilities
● Raising the standards of the University education
● Contributing to human knowledge through leading to
scientific discoveries and formulation of new
theories
One of the major objectives of establishing the
Deanship is to organize research and graduate
studies at the university. The Deanship is thus in
charge of facilitating the development of academic
research: simple computerized procedures, and
financial and technical support for academics
willing to conduct research in different fields. It
is also concerned with offering many academic
programs at the graduate level that meet the needs
and challenges of the era, whether in Jordan or
abroad.
● To supervise research and graduate studies, two
important councils were formed in the Deanship: (a)
The Scientific Research council and (b) The Graduate
Studies Council.
The Deanship works constantly to foster co-operation
with scientific and academic national and
international institutions in the domains of
research and exchange of publications and expertise. |
