The Secretariat of the Scientific Council

The primary official form for requesting an extension of service for Saudi faculty members, to be completed by them, their department head, and their college dean. The form includes: the member's complete data, their service end date, and the requested extension period. It also requires sequential official approval, and a clarification of the actual justification for the extension and the institutional need for it. This form is considered the starting point for the extension process, and all other file documents are built upon it. It is submitted through the college to the Scientific Council Secretariat for initial review, then referred to the Permanent Extension Committee. It targets all Saudi faculty members who are nearing retirement age and wish to extend their service.
