Participants' opinions

Attending the ‘How to Write Your Research Proposal’ seminar was incredibly beneficial. Dr. Hashem Al-Sharafat provided clear and actionable guidelines that demystified the proposal writing process. I feel much more confident in structuring my research ideas and presenting them effectively to review committees.

The seminar on the ‘Ethical Use of AI Tools in Research’ opened my eyes to the critical ethical considerations we must address when utilizing AI in our studies. Suhaib Bani Kinana insights on ensuring transparency and fairness have already influenced how I approach data collection and analysis in my current project.

Participating in the ‘Effective Communication with the Academic Supervisor’ workshop was a game-changer for me. The strategies discussed for maintaining productive and respectful communication with my supervisor have greatly improved our interactions, making the process of developing my doctoral thesis much smoother.
