College of Political Sciences

Dean’s Message

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

It is with great pleasure and honor that I extend my greetings of appreciation and respect to all members of the College of Political Science at the University of Mosul—faculty, staff, and students—as well as to the esteemed visitors of this official website. Our college stands as one of the important academic institutions in our beloved university and is a leading center in the field of political studies and international relations on the local, regional, and international levels.

Since its establishment, the College of Political Science has shouldered the responsibility of preparing qualified scientific and professional cadres capable of understanding and analyzing political realities, contributing to decision-making, building state institutions, and promoting the values of citizenship and national interest. It has been—and continues to be—a vibrant environment for thought, discussion, and dialogue, and a scientific hub for producing solid knowledge and advancing research in one of the most vital fields of the social and human sciences.

Today, we live in a world undergoing rapid transformations and facing complex political, security, and economic challenges. This compels us, as academic institutions, to keep pace with these changes through a clear vision, a renewed scientific approach, and an educational practice grounded in critical thinking and deep analysis, while upholding authentic academic values. From this standpoint, we strive—by the will of Allah Almighty—to develop our curricula, support our research activities, and expand our academic relations with universities and research centers inside and outside Iraq, in a way that enhances our college’s standing in global rankings.

We also affirm our commitment to supporting our students, helping them realize their aspirations, and empowering them with the skills necessary for success in their academic and professional paths. Moreover, we encourage them to take initiative and actively participate in university life through cultural and intellectual activities that contribute to shaping their character and raising their awareness.

I take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the building of this college and served it with dedication. I especially acknowledge the former deans who left a clear imprint on its journey.

I ask Allah Almighty to grant us all success in serving our college, our university, and our country, and to be worthy of the trust placed in us. May this website serve as a bright window reflecting our academic identity and future ambitions.

Peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.
