After reviewing the report and discussing its contents - as the committee hosted a number of the university officials as well as its former academics, Their Excellencies members of the Shura Council praised Qatar University's excellence at academic and research levels, its contribution to providing the labor market with distinguished competencies, its relentless endeavor to serve and support the community and meet its needs, as well as conducting studies and researches that address challenges and support the country's directions in construction and development.
