Doha: The Shura Council held its regular weekly meeting yesterday at Tamim bin Hamad Hall under the chair of Speaker of the Shura Council H E Hassan bin Abdullah Al Ghanim.
During the session, the Council reviewed the report of the Information and Cultural Affairs Committee on Qatar University (QU), which included a summary of the committee’s findings from its study of the responses received from the university regarding the council’s inquiries about its educational and academic matters.
After reviewing the report and discussing its contents — as the committee hosted a number of the university officials as well as its former academics, Their Excellencies members of the Shura Council praised Qatar University’s excellence at academic and research levels.
They also valued its contribution to providing the labour market with distinguished competencies, its relentless endeavour to serve and support the community and meet its needs, as well as conducting studies and researches that address challenges and support the country’s directions in construction and development.
Their Excellencies members of the Shura Council looked forward to a senior role for the university in supporting the national academic cadre by appointing Qatari graduates of QU and other local universities who hold master’s and PhD degrees to work in the academic staff as teaching assistants and university professors, without requiring their work in external scientific institutions to support the national cadre and remove obstacles they might face.
The council also reviewed its delegation’s participation in the third plenary meeting of the third session of the third legislative term of the Arab Parliament, held in Cairo in January.
