| جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن تطلق أول جائزة لرتبة الأستاذ الجامعي المتميز |
| Released: 06/05/2008 |
|
| في خطوة هي الأولى من نوعها على مستوى المنطقة كرم معالي مدير جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن الدكتور خالد بن صالح السلطان أمس الأول (الاثنين 5/4/2008م) عضوين من هيئة التدريس بالجامعة برتبة الأستاذ الجامعي المتميز وهما أستاذ قسم الهندسة الكهربائية د . محمد طاهر أبو المعاطي وأستاذ الهندسة الميكانيكية الدكتور بكري سامي يلبس , بحضور وكلاء الجامعة وعمداء الكليات ورؤساء الأقسام الأكاديمية وعدد من الأساتذة في الجامعة وذلك في مركز المؤتمرات بالجامعة.
من جهته أشاد معالي مدير الجامعة الأستاذ الدكتور/ خالد بن صالح السطان في كلمته في حفل التكريم بهذه المناسبة بالأستاذين المحتفى بهما بما قدمه كل منهما خلال مسيرته في الجامعة وقبلها , مشيرًا إلى التنافس الكبير الذي وجده معاليه بين أساتذة الجامعة والتميز الذي كان عليه الأستاذين المكرمين الذي خولهما للظفر برتبة الأستاذية الجامعية المتميزة التي أقرها معاليه ابتداءً من العام الدراسي الحالي 1429هـ (2008م ) باعتبارها أعلى مرتبة تمنحها الجامعة للأساتذة البارزين في مجالات البحث العلمي والتدريس و خدمة المجتمع في الجامعة.
ووجه معاليه بتخفيف العبء التدريسي لكل منهما وذلك لمنحهما مزيدًا من الوقت للبحث العلمي.
وأكد عميد البحث العلمي د . محمد بن سعد آل حمود أن رتبة الأستاذ الجامعي المتميز تمنح عبر التنافس وتكون لمدة 3 سنوات ، مضيفًا أنه يتم منح هذه الرتبة سنوياً لأستاذين من أعضاء هيئة التدريس بالجامعة بحد أقصى ، ويتمتع صاحبها بلقب الأستاذ المتميز بالإضافة إلى منحه مكافأة مالية تبلغ 20000 ريال سنوياً إضافة إلى جائزة بحثية مقدارها 150000ريال لمدة 3 سنوات يمكن أن يقوم الأستاذ بإدارتها لتشمل الأبحاث والأنشطة الداعمة للبحث وطلاب الدراسات العليا الذين يشرف عليهم . بالإضافة إلى تعيين باحث مابعد الدكتوراه بإشراف كل من الباحثين الفائزين , مشيرًا إلى أن الجائـزة تعزز من نجاح الأنشطة العلمية للباحث الفائز وتمويل بحوث ما بعد الدكتوراه لهؤلاء الأساتذة المتميزين.
وأضاف د . آل حمود أن المعايير التي حددت للمتقدمين لمنح رتبة الأستاذية المتميزة تقتضي تحقيق المتقدم لانجازات علمية حقيقة وان يكون عمله الأكاديمي معروفاً ومتميزاً ، كما ينبغي أن يكون لأبحاثه صدى في التطور المعرفي في حقله.
وأضاف أن اختيار الأساتذة لجائزة الرتبة المتميزة يعتمد على نوعية الانجازات التي قاموا به خلال فترة وجودهم بالجامعة ، وانعكاس ذلك على زملائهم والأساتذة الجدد وسمعة الجامعة العلمية والأكاديمية في الخارج من خلال النشر البحثي والمرجعية العلمية لأبحاثهم وتقييم أعمالهم من قبل أساتذة وباحثين متخصصين على المستوى العالمي في مجال تخصص الباحث ، فضلاً عن إسهاماتهم في المشاريع الممولة ومشاركاتهم في الدراسات العليا .
وقال د . آل حمود أن إدارة الجامعة تحرص باستمرار على دعم أعضاء هيئة التدريس وتميزهم في مجالات التدريس والبحث العلمي ، وهي مستمرة في تطلعاتها لتحقيق أجازات جديدة مستقبلاً إن شاء الله تعالى.
وعلق المكرمان بعد تسلم الجائزة حيث أوضح أستاذ قسم الهندسة الكهربائية د . محمد أبو المعاطي أن الجائزة بالنسبة له مادية وحسب بل إن التحدي الشريف قاده لبذل مزيد من العمل البحثي والأكاديمي المتقدم بإخلاص وصبر لتحقيق أهداف أسمى وأكبر , حيث قال " بالنسبة لي لاتقتصر هذه الجائزة كونها مادية فقط ، إنها تقديراً لكل مجهوداتي وأعمالي المتفانية طوال سنوات . إنه لشرف كبير أن يتم إختياري لهذه الجائزة ، لقد كان للسنوات التي قضيتها حتى الآن في جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن الأثر البالغ عليٌ من التدريس وخدمة المجتمع إلى القيام بالأبحاث وسأظل ممتناً لجامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن لتزويدي بالعديد من الفرص والخدمات كي تكون أحلامي كبيرة ثم أتمكن من تحقيق هذه الأحلام.
وأنا مسرور لرؤية إلتزام جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن بتميير وتقدير الإنجازات المتميزة لأعضاء هيئة التدريس في التدريس وخدمة المجتمع والأبحاث ، هذا التقدير يجعل أعضاء هيئة التدريس يدركون بأن مجهوداتهم الجادة والمخلصة ملاحظة من قبل الجامعة وأنهم عندما يضعون أهدافاً ويسعون لها سوف يصلون لهذه الأهداف بإذن الله تعالى" .
وركز أستاذ قسم الهندسة الميكانيكية د . بكر يلباس على اهتمام خادم الحرمين الشريفين حفظه الله بالبحث العلمي والعلماء , الأمر الملحوظ من خلال ما يقدمه من دعم للجامعات , وامتدح د. يلباس العمل في جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن الأمر الذي جعله يكمل معها هذا العام السنة السادسة عشر منذ التحاقه بالكادر التعليمي فيها. قائلاً: " ينبغي علينا جميعاً إحترام وتقدير وشكر الدعم الكبير الذي يقدمه خادم الحرمين الشريفين ملك المملكة العربية السعودية لتطوير الأبحاث ، وأنا أؤمن بأنه ينبغي أن تقوم الجامعة بإسهامات ملموسة للمجتمع من خلال الأعمال الفكرية والإجتماعية والثقافية والعلمية وأنا ملتزم كلياً بهذه الأفكار وأعتبرها ضمن مسئولياتي الأكاديمية أن اقدم الحد الأقصى من البحث العلمي , وعليه فإن طموحي هو تعزيز العمل البحثي والتعاون مع الباحثين الآخرين في القيام ببحوث مشتركة ونشر المعرفة المفيدة للجامعة والمؤسسات التعليمية والقطاع الصناعي والمجتمع |
