Study Methods for Bachelor Degree Stage 

 

1)   Joining the University:

Students who apply for transfer must submit their requests before the starting date of study in the university they are directed to through the Central Transferring Office at the university. In case of an emergency, transfer requests might be accepted after that date, but they must be accompanied with an approval of the board of the faculty to which they are addressed.     

5. Admission of mentally disabled and blind students:

Admission of this category of students is carried out according to the eligible terms of the Supreme Council of Universities.

6. Study duration:

The duration of study in most faculties is around four years. It may be expanded in some faculties (engineering, dentistry, pharmacy and veterinary) to five years. However, the duration in the faculty of medicine stretches to six years. The internal regulation of each faculty determines the subjects of the study, distributing the curriculum and the specific time for each subject. Moreover, the University Council determines, according to the concerned department, the topics of each subject. The study in the university is based on two academic semesters, but in some faculties, such as Faculty of Medicine, designate an extended one year term for the academic year.

Arabic language is the main language of study except for some faculties, after the University Council's decision, such as languages departments in the faculties of Arts, Commerce, Economics, Law, Agriculture, Medicine, and Dentistry.

 

7. Examinations:

Usually, exams begin by the end of the second semester. Students should answer in Arabic. But the University Council may permit students to answer in a second language.

Except for the bachelor exams, the subject professor should fulfill the written exams in collaboration with either the one who taught the subject or others assigned by the University Council for that matter.

Practicality is the main feature of exams in the practical faculties in which exams may be extended to the span of one month.
