Abstract:
By virtue of its geographical location on the Arabian Peninsula, the Sultanate of Oman has lain at the intersection of networks of trade and exchange between Asia, eastern Africa and Europe since antiquity.This has given Oman a rich archeological and architectural heritage. However, what is less well appreciated beyond the Gulf Region is that the flows of people and ideas in which Oman has been engulfed for over two millennia have also produced an equally rich heritage of folksong and dance. This thesis is the first scholarly study of Omani vocal heritage. After tracing the origins and most si

Abstract:
Effects of various pollen types on the fruit growth and development in two maternal cultivars of Omani Date Palm were studied in the Northern Batinah region of the Sultanate Oman. Discrete stages in the development were identified, quantified and examined with regard to important variables including fruit set, weight, size, maturity, chemical composition, appearance and yield. Procedures were developed to compare across the different maternal cultivars and temperature environments. The pollen types were distinct in their effects, particularly as regards weight, time to maturity, ripening, suga

Abstract:
Organisational culture plays an important role in the success of the adoption of technology and the development of the organisation; therefore, it is very important to understand how organisational culture impacts the process of implementing technology, either positively or negatively.

Through a mixed methods approach this thesis investigates the road safety and operational culture of heavy vehicle drivers in Oman. The research found evidence of a low level of road safety compliance across much of the heavy vehicle industry in Oman. The research identified many unsafe driving behaviours and attitudes that were well established within the industry and its operations. Many of these behaviours and attitudes were facilitated and encouraged by lack of safety regulations and enforcement at different systems levels.

The globalization phenomenon is becoming a driving force of era–defining changes in the nature of societies and economics across the world. To a large extent, it has created a borderless world in which different cultures have become closer and interact with each other. In this multicultural world, relations between Muslims and non-Muslims, particularly those in the West, have become a pertinent and contentious issue.

Abstract:
Culture is a complex concept, but it is central to the task of curriculum design and development. The Ministry of Health (MoH) in the Sultanate of Oman plays a major role in healthcare education because it is the main employer and producer of healthcare professionals in the country. The MoH claims that its educational programmes are designed to meet the healthcare needs of the country at international standards, with ample consideration to the culture. As nursing is the major profession that the MoH invests in, produces, and employs, the purpose of this study is to explore the MoH’s approaches

In Oman, the organisational context of higher education is characterised by two disconnects relative to the societal context. The academic context is culturally diverse and uses English as a medium of instruction while the societal context is largely culturally homogenous and uses Arabic as the official language. The cultural diversity of staff in the academic context renders Omanis a proportional minority among other minorities. From a social identity perspective, such a composition could represent a seed for categorisation that hinders social identity construction which mediates the positive
