Ladies and gentlemen, conference preparations are generally carried out in all academic institutions and centers around the world. Each conference does not exceed a few days, but the preparations may take several months or more than a year. It is obvious to all of us what an important role scientific research plays in human life and the development of society, as we see all fields of science such as health science, economics, electronics, agriculture, etc.
Scientific research itself has a significant role in human life and is a door to the progress of society. If scientific research is a door to the progress of society, the key is to publish the research. The easiest way to publish scientific research is through scientific conferences, so one of our most important goals in holding scientific conferences is that you can publish the results of the research at the conference and read and evaluate Researchers who meet and sit together at conferences may exchange ideas, solve each other’s problems, and become familiar with the laboratories and equipment available in scientific centers Take advantage of each other.
In addition to the benefits I mentioned, holding scientific conferences has another influence is that when a scientific conference is held in one country is held again in another country, in this regard, we can benefit from each other’s culture.
We have decided to hold it in a different place every year, one day in Mergasur, one day in Shaqlawa, Soran, Koya, Khabat and Erbil Or why is it useful to hold scientific conferences.
Therefore, we felt it necessary to pay attention to this issue. This is another lesson for students to know how conferences are held in academic centers and universities.
Finally, I would like to congratulate the conference organizing committee and the deanship of Soran Technical College for hosting the conference.
Afterwards, students’ seminars were held according to the specialized sectors of administration, engineering and technology, medicine, agriculture, which were divided into six seminar halls. The evaluators of different sectors evaluated the students’ projects.
