The Schedules and Tests Committee is an academic committee within the Department of Public Health that organizes the educational process and ensures tests and studies run smoothly.
Committee / Unit Responsibilities
The tasks of this committee are divided into two main parts based on the regulatory evidence for universities and colleges:

Distribute teaching loads: Assign courses to faculty members based on their regular quorum and specific specializations.
Hall and laboratory management: Allocate classrooms and laboratories for each course, and distribute groups and departments in proportion to the halls' capacity to prevent overcrowding.
Resolving conflicts: Review and audit schedules to resolve conflicts in lecture dates for students or faculty members, and coordinate schedule changes as needed.
Second: Tasks of affairs and activities related to tests
