History of the University of Sulaimani The Ba'ath regime was not expecting that from this university, thus, in an unexpected step in 1981, the University was transferred to Erbil and it’s name was changed to University of Salahaddin in order to eliminate the revolutionary spirit of this center of science and Kurdish consciousness. This situation lasted for twelve years till the uprising of 1991 which led to the reopening of the University in Sulaimani. With the effort of the Kurdish political leadership and positive response of the science loving people of Sulaimani, in 1992 this University was once again re-established.

  • Where Tulips and Crocuses Are Popular Food Snacks: Kurdish
    Pieroni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2019) 15:59 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13002-019-0341-0 RESEARCH Open Access Where tulips and crocuses are popular food snacks: Kurdish traditional foraging reveals traces of mobile pastoralism in Southern Iraqi Kurdistan Andrea Pieroni1* , Hawre Zahir2, Hawraz Ibrahim M. Amin3,4 and Renata Sõukand5 Abstract Background: Iraqi Kurdistan is a special hotspot for bio-cultural diversity and for investigating patterns of traditional wild food plant foraging, considering that this area was the home of the first Neolithic communities and has been, over millennia, a crossroad of different civilizations and cultures. The aim of this ethnobotanical field study was to cross-culturally compare the wild food plants traditionally gathered by Kurdish Muslims and those gathered by the ancient Kurdish Kakai (Yarsan) religious group and to possibly better understand the human ecology behind these practices. Methods: Twelve villages were visited and 123 study participants (55 Kakai and 68 Muslim Kurds) were interviewed on the specific topic of the wild food plants they currently gather and consume. Results: The culinary use of 54 folk wild plant taxa (corresponding to 65 botanical taxa) and two folk wild mushroom taxa were documented. While Kakais and Muslims do share a majority of the quoted food plants and also their uses, among the plant ingredients exclusively and commonly quoted by Muslims non-weedy plants are slightly preponderant. Moreover, more than half of the overall recorded wild food plants are used raw as snacks, i.e. plant parts are consumed on the spot after their gathering and only sometimes do they enter into the domestic arena.

  • Experiences of the Kurdish Students on Hungarian Scholarship in Terms of Language Anxiety
    Konin Language Studies Faculty of Philology, State University of Applied Sciences in Konin, Poland KSJ 6 (4). 2018. 437-454 http://ksj.pwsz.konin.edu.pl doi: 10.30438/ksj.2018.6.4.4 Experiences of the Kurdish students on Hungarian scholarship in terms of language anxiety Hama Karim Barzan University of Halabja, Iraqi Kurdistan https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7116-3817 [email protected] Abstract After years of providing study-abroad programs by both the Kurdistan regional government and other countries to citizens of Iraqi Kurdistan, there is no litera- ture studying the problems Kurdish international students experience while studying in a foreign country. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the experiences of Kurdish students studying at Hungarian universities. Semi-struc- tured interviews were conducted to gain in-depth understanding of the experi- ences of three international Kurdish students in terms of English language anxi- ety on a Hungarian scholarship program. The results show that foreign language anxiety has a negative effect on the academic performance of the students. At the same time, the interviewees believe that the Hungarian scholarship is an opportunity to improve their English language use and decrease the level of their language anxiety. The findings may be useful for the organizers of the scholarship program to better manage the program as well as for the future candidates who wish to pursue their studies in Hungary. Keywords: language anxiety; English language; Hungarian scholarship 1. Introduction In order to strengthen its political, economic and cultural relationships with other countries, and to increase the number of top international students pursuing their education in Hungarian universities, the Hungarian government offers Stipendium 437 Hama Karim Barzan Hungarian scholarship programs that are managed by The Tempus Public Foun- dation (TPF) to citizens of 41 countries (Stipendium Hungaricum – Tempus Közalapítvány, 2016).

Moreover, a management information system (MIS) is a type of computerized information systems. Hence, human resource management information system (HRMIS) has a fast processing to produce accurate information within the organization environment. Therefore, many researchers proposed numerous HRMISs for university campuses. However, some universities, including Kurdistan Region universities are still relying paper-based system in managing their human resources. Based on that, this study aims to identify and analyze current systems which are used for managing and accessing human resource information in the university campus. Further, the study tries to design a web-based HRMIS based on the requirements achieved from aforementioned aim. The data collection of this study has been carried out at three universities, as a case study, in Duhok province. A mixed method of data collection was done. Then, the qualitative method of data collection conducted using interviews and observation instruments.
