Graduation-project supervision and defense are rather a very organized process that is  conducted through well-defined steps. The Head of the English Department Dr. Abu Arrah, set five groups of supervisors based on field of research in which they were specialized. The, prospective graduates would  choose their supervisors  based on their research interest. Under the supervision of the competent and well rounded teaching staff, students were encouraged to choose the topics that they were keen on exploring and researching. Their work was closely monitored and guided all the way long until the final submission to the defense committees.

Eventually, defense sessions were scheduled and students proudly defended their work before the examiners.

Students’ achievements speak volumes to  the persistent laudable efforts the English Department invests in cultivating creativity to bring to the world real achievers.
