Ahlia University has successfully inaugurated the PhD Forum on Digital Media and Artificial Intelligence, bringing together over 50 researchers from Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar.

Professor Abdulla Al-Hawaj, Founding President and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, reaffirmed the University’s commitment to bridging the gap between academic research and real-world applications. He emphasized that Ahlia University’s researchers will play a pivotal role in enhancing the region’s cultural image and promoting a positive global perception of Bahrain and the Gulf. “Our goal is not only to produce high-quality research but also to translate these studies into tangible contributions that highlight the great achievements of our nations,” Professor Al-Hawaj stated.

The event, held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, aligns with the launch of Ahlia University’s PhD program in Digital Media and Communication Technology, introduced last year.

Al-Hawaj also highlighted the significant role of artificial intelligence and digital communication technologies in modern media, stressing that today’s media professionals must harness these tools to deliver more accurate and efficient information.

Expressing optimism about the growth of scientific research in Bahrain, Professor Al-Hawaj acknowledged the support and patronage of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al-Khalifa and the government led by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al-Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister. He further emphasized the ability of Gulf researchers to compete on the global stage, sharing his vision of Bahraini and regional universities emerging as leading institutions in research and innovation.

The PhD Forum on Digital Media and Communication Technology underscores Ahlia University’s dedication to academic excellence and innovation, reinforcing its role as a key contributor to the advancement of digital media research in the region.
