UNIVERSITY OF HAFR AL BATIN

By royal order, the University of Hafr Al-Batin was established. (20937) dated 06/02/1435 AH to integrate with the other Saudi institutions in order to support the educational process, be a tributary, and assist in carrying out the ambitious growth goals in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Colleges of Education for Girls in Hafr Al-Batin, Nairiyah, Qarya Ulya, and Al-Khafji had an academic impact from two prominent universities, the University of Dammam when they founded the University of Hafr Al-Batin. The King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, which existed from its founding until the date of the university's declaration, was included under its jurisdiction, as were the Community College and University Colleges for Boys. It has a plan for the future and a strategy. We at Hafr Al-Batin University were eager to concretize these visions on the ground, in pursuit of our goal through. This success comes as a natural result of good planning, good implementation, and good follow-up, so in order to form a new generation capable of working and dealing with and building a knowledge economy led by innovation and modernization that leads to the renaissance of the nation.

- If the intern has a period of discontinuation from training (less than twenty weeks), previous courses that have been successfully passed before discontinuation will be considered, and the duration of this discontinuation must be compensated at the end of the training period.
- In the event of discontinuation for a period (more than twenty weeks and less than forty weeks), the intern is required to repeat the internship year, and any previous training period spent in the internship is not counted.
- In the event of discontinuation for a period exceeding forty weeks, the college has the right to compel a student to attend exams or other evaluations that the college is suggesting, provided that he is not allowed to start the internship until passing those procedures.
13. Postponement
- In cases of extreme necessity, it is permissible for the student to delay starting the internship year for a period not exceeding twenty weeks, and the student must provide sufficient justifications to the internship unit in the college.
- In the event that the postponement period exceeds twenty weeks but is less than forty weeks, the internship unit has the right to allow the student to start the internship year if he provided sufficient justification to the college.
- If the postponement period exceeded twenty weeks but is less than forty weeks, the internship unit would have the right to allow the student to start the internship year if he provided sufficient justifications to the college.
14. Absence and compensation regulations
If the unexcused absence does not exceed 3 days, this absence period should be compensated in the same training rotation, in coordination with the training supervisor at the training institution.
If the number of days of absence exceeds three days in one training rotation, the student must repeat the entire rotation without an allowance.
Regarding the interns who receive the internship allowances, they must compensate periods of absence without allowances in case they received them during the period in which they were absent.

15. Internship evaluation
The training supervisor at the training site must prepare and sign a report to be approved by the head of the department in the training site after the completion of each training rotation in the various departments according to the form approved by the College of Pharmacy.
Reports on the performance of the internship must be sent to the internship unit office immediately after the end of each training rotation.
Each rotation is evaluated as follows: 50% for the training institution and 50% for the college, as detailed in the evaluation form attached to these regulations.
If the internship student obtained an evaluation of less than 60% in any training rotation, the student must repeat it.
16. Violations and penalties
If the internship student breaches his/her professional duties or obligations, or commits any behavioral or ethical violation that impacts the ethics of the profession, the internship unit in the college must recommend the formation of an investigation committee in the college issue in coordination with the training supervisor at the training institution, and then submit the recommendations to the college dean.
