The Department of Geography and Geographic Information Systems at the College of Arts / University of Basrah held a welcoming ceremony for the newly admitted students in the first stage, which was opened with the national anthem and a minute’s silence for the souls of the martyrs of Iraq. Then the activities of the ceremony continued by introducing the Department of Geography, its objectives, professors, and study subjects, as well as student poetic activities, cultural speeches, and expressive sentences that inspire a spirit of positivity in our new students.

The department staff made great efforts to prepare all possibilities to receive students and to facilitate the process of their entry into the geography department.
