Abstract

The study aimed to uncover the priorities of integration between universities and military colleges from the perspective of faculty members in cooperating universities, and to reveal the existence of differences in the opinions of academics and military personnel regarding the degree of priorities based on the variables of job, rank, and experience to provide recommendations on the priorities. The study was applied to (108) members of the King Abdullah Academy, and faculty members cooperating with them from universities. The study reached a number of results, where systems and policies come first (in developing systems, policies, and regulations governing military academic work, such as the admission system, the study and examination regulations, and the regulations of students’ rights in the military academic field, followed by human resources (such as providing assistance to teachers “officers” regarding training and technical support for using technology in military teaching, professional development for officers before and during teaching service, sending students accepted in military colleges to study at universities, developing the leadership capabilities of military officers, and developing quality and academic accreditation programs for the military), and scientific research comes in third place (such as building educational programs and auditing and approving them, joint cooperation in preparing military graduates, supervising the scientific research of students, and refereeing scientific research and supervising scientific theses for students of military colleges, and finally, the technology and digital transformation axis (such as benefiting from the infrastructure and technical equipment owned by universities in providing many services to the military sector in a way that achieves cost efficiency and raises the quality of work) comes as the least important axis of priorities of integration. The study recommended conducting a study on the integration between the military sectors and universities in scientific research.
