These programs and plans are based on scientific and academic methods as well as modern and contemporary educational theories in harmony with our original Arab culture and traditions, and with the spirit of the teachings of our Islamic religion and its tolerant law. The university also depends in implementing these programs and plans on a group of distinguished teaching staff in various scientific disciplines.
In order for the university to keep abreast of all that is new in the world of knowledge and the world of rapid changes in our time ... the era of scientific and technological progress; it is constantly working to develop its programs and teaching plans in accordance with a scientific methodology guided by the standards of quality and academic accreditation. The university has reached an advanced level in this field, which has been attested by the scientific and academic references and the concerned official institutions in our country, in the undergraduate and postgraduate programs.
In the field of postgraduate studies and scientific research, the university has granted and approved many master,s theses in various scientific majors. Today, the university is seeking to achieve a qualitative leap in the doctoral program in some of these disciplines, as a contribution to the development of the scientific and academic infrastructure in our country. This goal is meant to support the wheel of construction and comprehensive development on the basis of scientific foundations that assimilate with contemporary human theories and experiences.
In order to enrich the academic reality, mature the different fields of knowledge, and develop the fields of studies and scientific research, the university has been always establishing a systematic program concerned with holding annual scientific conferences that deal with, via research and study, various scientific disciplines related to the issues of our Yemeni society and its development and progress.
