Research lapses in the field of communication and information

A review in light of the academic achievements at the Algerian University

Abstract

This diagnostic research is concerned with trying to uncover the most important lapses related to the preparation of memoirs and scientific theses in the field of communication and information sciences at Algerian universities, by digging into four pivotal levels: "conceptualization, methodology, theory, and practice". In order to achieve the desired objectives, the researcher relies on the "analytical approach" through "observation by browsing" several research projects at the Universities of Algiers 3 and Constantine 3, in addition to "scientific interviews" with research professors in the specialization.

This research concludes with a set of important scientific recommendations related to the optimization of various academic research practices, including the preparation of memoirs and scientific theses, through a solution and guidance that would add a lot to the map of field research in communication and information sciences at the Algerian university. Therefore, it suggests the need to open a scientific debate among specialized actors to evaluate the experience of research in the field after more than half a century of existence in the Algerian university.
