Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : |
I my opinion if the university provide more facility especially financial support it would help our academic staff to be able to attend different conferences related to their filed. In this way they would gain more experience in the field of study and also they would update their knowledge to the world level. Apart from that they could provide a possibility of collaboration between TUMS and other universities around the world especially with European universities. |
