The Department of Life Sciences has enjoyed since its establishment a distinguished scientific reputation within the University of Baghdad. In general, the department devotes the capabilities to maintain the highest scientific level, as the department provides a wide study and research program within the specialization of life sciences in order to provide scientific opportunities for primary and postgraduate students. Every year, many original scientific researches are carried out in various fields of life sciences. The department has about 85 affiliates, most of whom hold master’s and doctoral degrees. The members of the Department of Life Sciences are distinguished by their high ambition and aspiration to raise the scientific level to the international level. In this regard, a number of the department’s employees are currently continuing their studies outside Iraq and will supplement the department after completing the study requirements. At the level of preliminary studies, the department provides the opportunity to obtain a bachelor’s degree in life sciences by giving practical and theoretical lessons as well as scientific research in almost all branches of life sciences, as the subjects taught during the four academic years qualify graduates to work as biologists wherever they are needed in the fields of work. The number of new students admitted to the department has increased over the past years.
