Hasan Abuaisha, FRCP. Editor-in-Chief
The Sudan Journal of Health
Sciences is a new scientific journal sponsored by Al-Fajr College for
Science and Technology, Khartoum, Sudan. The Journal is one of the most important products of Al-Fajr Research and Development Center.
Al-Fajr College was
established in 2015 with a vision to achieve leadership and excellence in
higher education, scientific research and social accountability. This is to be
accomplished through producing highly qualified and competent graduates in
various aspects of knowledge and expertise, equipped with morals and values
that meet the needs of our society.
Since establishment, Al-Fajr
College has focused on achieving the highest possible standards in education, research, innovations and accountability to the community. One of the strong areas
of the College is
its endeavor to follow
and develop the most recent evidence-based trends in medical education. For
this purpose, qualified staff are appointed and exposed to relevant training in
learning, teaching and modern types of assessment.
The importance of research for the College needs no emphases as it fulfils many aspects of the College goals. To achieve good quality research
both students and staff
are exposed to training on research methodology by experts in the field. Furthermore, the staff was
trained on students’ supervision, guidance and monitoring. To strengthen all
these activities, the Research and Development
Center was established, and it developed
a comprehensive plan to
conduct excellent and competitive research.
The need for quality scientific journal as a vehicle for
publishing knowledge and discoveries became very apparent. That is how the Sudan Journal of Health Sciences
was born. The journey to produce the first issue was
a great challenge, but the team entrusted with this task was up to it.
The Journal welcomes quality
research from faculty
staff and their peers
from national and international research
centers. The college
staff is encouraged to help senior students by
quality supervision of their graduation research projects; so that researches
that meet the standards of the Journal will
be considered for publication.
We hope
that the Sudan Journal of Health Sciences
will be a significant addition to the national, regional and international
sources of scientific publications.
