The Viva-Voce Committee, which was formed based on a resolution issued by the Post-Graduate Studies and Scientific Research Council, consisted of the following:

The primary objectives of the dissertation were to:
\n1. Assess the level of knowledge regarding intellectual property rights laws among faculty members and their assistants at Sana’a University.

\n3. Evaluate the extent to which faculty members and their assistants consider intellectual property rights when utilizing the Internet and social media platforms.
\n4. Investigate the impact of applying and adhering to intellectual property laws on the advancement of scientific research and the enhancement of knowledge productivity.<\/h3>\n

The findings of the dissertation revealed several key insights, including:
\n1. A significant lack of awareness concerning intellectual property rights laws and relevant stakeholders among faculty members at Sana’a University.
\n2. The insufficient enforcement of intellectual property rights laws, which has adversely affected the progression of scientific research.
\n3. An acknowledgment among faculty members regarding the importance of implementing intellectual property rights.<\/h3>\n

The dissertation also presented several important recommendations:
\n1. To foster ongoing awareness about the significance of preserving and protecting intellectual property rights and their beneficial effects, it is essential to organize courses, workshops, seminars, and conferences aimed at enhancing the knowledge of faculty members and their assistants regarding intellectual property laws and agreements.
\n2. To strengthen collaboration between Sana’a University and relevant authorities responsible for protecting intellectual property rights, ensuring that faculty members are informed about applicable laws and agreements under Yemeni law, as well as the benefits they may derive from engaging with these authorities.
