On November 3rd , 2021, an important and pleasant event took place at Oles Honchar Dnipro National University. Almugheed Amjad Mohammad Mahmoud, a graduate student from Jordan, successfully defended his dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Philology.

In his scientific work, Amjad Almugheed explored the representation of the basic components of the Arab world on the basis of explanatory, special and encyclopedic dictionaries, as well as fragments from texts of various genres of the National Corpus of the Russian language.

The dissertation was defended at a meeting of the one-time Specialized Academic Council at the Faculty of Ukrainian and Foreign Philology and Study of Arts at DNU.
