The Dean of the College of Computer Science and Information Technology at University of Basrah, Prof.Dr. Hisham Kadhum Hashim, has chaired a specialized ministerial committee tasked with evaluating the academic and scientific status of the Universities of Thi-Qar and Sumer. This initiative is part of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research’s ongoing efforts to enhance institutional performance and improve the quality of higher education across Iraqi universities.

The committee’s work involved assessing the current state of these educational institutions, reviewing their academic, administrative, and scientific operations, and evaluating their available resources, as well as their adherence to the standards and regulations established by the Ministry.

This visit aligns with the Ministry’s directives aimed at developing the university environment, improving the quality of educational outcomes, and embedding standards for quality assurance and academic accreditation—all of which contribute to elevating the level of higher education in Iraq.
