Al-Maslamawi stated during his speech that “the project will be subject to many amendments, including exempting humanities specializations from the (h-index) index,” noting that “the new instructions will be postponed and will not enter into force at present, contrary to what was reported by the media.”

Al-Maslamawi added that the parliamentary education committee is making the necessary amendments to the project to serve the educational process and close the doors to commercial magazines.

For his part, the university’s assistant president for scientific affairs, Dr. Haider Muhammad Imran, explained that “the financial challenge is one of the most prominent challenges facing instructors, in addition to the lack of universities of the necessary laboratories that can be relied upon in research.”

Imran stressed the importance of enhancing the status of local scientific journals that raise the university’s global ranking.
