University Council Examines Methods to Bolster Academic Research Efforts Convening Tuesday morning, February 10, 2026, within the National Unity Hall, the 272nd periodic assembly took place for its second annual sitting.
Participants reviewed several scheduled topics which concentrated almost entirely on academic inquiry.
The Council opened with briefing notes from the President of the University, Prof. Dr. Mohamed Saad Ambarek; such updates ensure total clarity and keep the board informed on the specific administrative actions taken by its leadership.
Conversations then shifted to research matters, which LIMU values immensely, dedicating significant funding and assisting both staff and pupils in placing their work within esteemed journals. This support also extends to ensuring their presence at diverse domestic and global academic forums.
Specific items on the agenda included:
- Incentives for publishing scientific studies.
- Guidelines for funding academic publishing.
- Frameworks for facilitating conference attendance.
- The institutional research ethics charter.
- Governance rules for the Center of Research and Consultations.
- A strategy for assessing and enhancing research consultancy policies.

Additionally, members debated the 2026 handbook for academic advisors and tutors. The board also examined the summary of the university’s 18th-anniversary gala, held under the visionary “National Icons” initiative. This particular iteration focused on celebrating legends in the athletic field.
Simultaneously, a country-wide painting contest for young artists was conducted to mark the occasion.
