Scientific research at the University of Sharjah is considered central to the University’s mission due to its importance in furthering knowledge, developing scientific applications and contributing to social, economic and scientific development. The University is intent on providing an environment conducive to promoting scientific research through offering financial and technological support, in addition to relevant incentives. In order to achieve the aims, the University of Sharjah established the Research and Studies Center in March 1999.  The Center was responsible for organizing activities that promote scientific research and for implementing various research and community activities. In September 2006, the College of Graduate Studies and Research was established to achieve these goals.

 

Over the past several years, the University of Sharjah has achieved remarkable development in the sphere of scientific research through recruiting a number of distinguished academics, who are specialized in research in various disciplines, and by making available state-of-the-art equipment in its numerous laboratories. The University is committed to continuing its development of high-quality scientific research.
