As websites become civilized interfaces for all the institutions in the world, they have formed an important position in attracting audiences, directing them and providing services and even developing work, completing and implementing many of the tasks required by the service reality in general or educational reality, particularly in universities. Our university has made abundance of gains in this space through its website, which saves a lot of time and effort for the benefit of educational infrastructure and scientific research.Due to its  importance, the  university focused on supporting  ,expanding  and activating  the work of the website with a set of measures and scientific discrete  mechanisms that serve the society mainly through serving the  researcher as a  professor , a student or an associate, so the university is interested very much in the development of knowledge and science through the latest developments and technological improvements especially in the field of  electronic communication. Accordingly the university holds many meetings to employees of the websites to develop the reality of work through a series of academic activities and meetings,such as workshops or specialized courses, or scientific conferences and symposiums.


 

What  the University has carried out recently is a scientific achievement added to the advanced scientific achievements in the electronic field and digital communication, where the university established a workshop for the development of websites, and under the  patronage of Prof. Dr. Alaa’ Abdul hussein, President of the University, Assistant Professor Dr. Osama Fadhil Abdul latif ,Dean of the college of Engineering –Al-Khawarzmi attended the workshop and most of the employees of the websites of colleges and institutes and formations of the University also attended the workshop.
