As
part of the plan to continue strengthening relations
among the institutions of higher education in
the Sultanate, the President of the Administration
Council of Al Buraimi College, Sheikh Ahmed bin
Nasser Al Naimy met with the Vice Chancellor
of Dhofar University, Prof. Muhammed Faour. Prof.
Faour gave his guest a brief introduction to
the DU Colleges, departments, student services,
academic life and the new campus project. He
also spoke to Sheikh Ahmed about the relationships
that DU has with other institutions and universities
both inside and outside the Sultanate.
Sheikh Ahmed told Prof. Faour that the purpose
of the visit was to arrive at common scientific cooperation between DU and Al
Buraimy College. He also mentioned the importance of visits among the higher
education providers, which in the end will lead to more opportunities in both
the domains of academic education as well as scientific research. He also expressed
his wish to encourage student research, and talked about the importance of activating
exchanges between the lecturers and students of both institutions.
The guest was then taken on a tour around the
Colleges. He also had a look at the new three-dimensional model of the university
campus that contains buildings which are already under construction. At the end
of the visit, Sheikh Ahmed expressed his gratitude for the hospitality offered
to him, and said that he admired both the academic and administrative progress
which had taken place in such a short time at the University.
