Newsletters

The OAR Newsletter is a quarterly communication that highlights internal updates (e.g., key research activities, funding updates, upcoming events, and faculty achievements) and external opportunities (e.g., national funding, conference deadlines, calls for papers). It serves as a platform to foster research engagement, share success stories, and keep the academic community informed about important opportunities and developments. Each issue includes timely reminders, spotlights on scholarly work, and practical tips to support faculty in their research and professional growth.
