\u200bAs part of the College of Petroleum and Natural Resources’ keenness to enhance the practical aspect for its students and link academic outcomes to professional reality, and under the generous sponsorship of the College Deanship, the Department of Environmental Sciences organized a field visit for its students to the University of Science and Technology Hospital in Sana’a, within the practical applications of the “Waste Management” course.<\/h3>\n

\u200bThe visit was supervised by Prof. Dr. Hisham Mohammed Naji, Head of the Environmental Sciences Department, and Dr. Maryam Ahmed Taher, course instructor, with the aim of familiarizing students with the best practices followed in managing medical and hazardous waste within health institutions, and learning about the environmental and health procedures approved in accordance with international standards.<\/h3>\n
