The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the College of Engineering – Al-Nahrain University, under the generous patronage of the Dean of the College of Engineering, Prof. Dr. Iyad Murad Takhakh, and under the supervision of the Head of the Biomedical Engineering Department, Assistant Professor Dr. Anas Qusay Hashim, held scientific discussion seminars for PhD students in the department. These seminars were organized as part of the department’s ongoing efforts to monitor the students’ research progress and facilitate academic dialogue between students and faculty members.

The main objective of these seminars is to track the development stages of students’ scientific research, while providing an interactive environment for exchanging academic views and perspectives. This contributes to the enhancement of students’ presentation skills and ability to receive constructive feedback, ultimately improving the quality of the submitted theses and dissertations.

These seminars are considered one of the fundamental pillars of postgraduate study programs, as they contribute to the development of research capabilities, enhance students’ proficiency in discussing scientific ideas, and enable them to receive guidance and feedback that help raise their academic and research levels. This aligns with the department’s vision to supply the academic community with highly qualified and competent researchers.These discussion seminars aim to foster interaction and exchange of academic opinions and perspectives between students and faculty members, contributing to the development of students' skills and enhancing their confidence in presenting their research and receiving constructive criticism—thus improving the quality of scientific output.

They also aim to encourage students to pursue reputable scientific publishing, develop their capabilities during the research period, and raise the quality of scientific research in the academic environment.
