Our research group members engage in supervising and organizing academic and extracurricular activities for students to provide opportunities for our undergraduate and post-graduate students to develop research skills and foster a sense of community. These activities do not only complement academic programs but also allow students to apply their knowledge in practical, real-world scenarios. Our key student activities and projects are as follows:
Graduate Thesis and Dissertation: graduate and postgraduate students are required to complete a thesis or a dissertation, which is a major research project that requires working closely with faculty and often collaborating with peers. While it's typically an individual project, group discussions, peer reviews, and research groups play a crucial role in the thesis development process.
Here are some of the topics for successfully passed Thesis and Dissertation supervised by our research members:
Dr. Mohammad Al-Fawareh:
Criminal Protection for Persons with Disabilities : A Comparative Study
Legal Structure Of The Crime of Trafficking inhuman Beings : A Comparative Study In Jordanian Penal Legislation
Child Criminal Protection In Accordance With The Jordanian Penal Code
Penal Protection of Child's Rights
Dr. Muath Al-Zubi :
The Criminal Confrontation of Trafficking in Persons' Crime in the Jordanian Legislation.
Alternatives to Detention in the Jordanian Law of Criminal Procedures, as amended (No 9 of 1961).
Dr.Ghofran Hilal:
The crime of torturing prisoners of war within the framework of the International Criminal Court.
The legal framework for the international protection of women during International armed conflicts
Moot Court Competitions: These are simulated court proceedings, often focusing on legal cases, where students take on the roles of lawyers and judges. This activity is particularly beneficial for students studying law, as it sharpens their critical thinking and argumentation skills in a team-based setting. Participants collaborate to prepare legal briefs and present their cases before a mock court, national or international, such as Nuremberg Moot Court Competition, Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, and The AUF Legal Clinic Moot Court.
Research Competitions: allow students to collaborate on innovative research projects, present their findings, and compete with peers for recognition. These competitions foster intellectual curiosity, enabling students to tackle complex problems, develop research methodologies, and contribute to academic or professional legal fields such as participation in the ICRC research competition (second place) and the Scientific Research Award for Jordanian University Students (fourth place).
Organizing Academic Events: such as seminars and conferences helping our students to engage in real- life experiences and to expand their skills, build strong networks, and gain practical experience that will benefit them both academically and professionally.
