Dr Al-Hareth Abu Hussein, Head of the Digital Supply Chain Department at Middle East University’s Faculty of Business, has represented the university at the 8th International Staff Week hosted by the University of Piraeus in Greece, reflecting MEU’s commitment to fostering cross-border academic partnerships and broadening international research collaboration.
Engaging in the Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility Programme (KA171), the participation established strategic communication channels with representatives from European and global institutions. Discussions explored avenues for joint academic and research initiatives, including faculty and administrative staff exchanges, co-authored research for peer-reviewed journals, and specialised joint workshops aimed at encouraging knowledge transfer and academic synergy.
Focusing on key future-orientated disciplines, the collaborative agenda addressed business administration, digital supply chain management, logistics, sustainability, digital transformation, and artificial intelligence applications in management, aligning academic output with rapidly evolving global business environments and advancing applied research in emerging economic sectors.
