The present study aimed to identify the scientific research obstacles facing faculty members in the College of Education at Princess Nora bint Abdul Rahman University (PNU) and to determine the differences in the obstacles according to age, academic rank, scientific specialty, marital status, number of completed studies, and time since the last academic rank was received. An initial data form and questionnaire were prepared to identify the obstacles to scientific research. The questionnaire assessed personal and family obstacles, social factors, technical skills, organizational and professional obstacles, and societal obstacles. The researcher assessed the validity and reliability of the survey instrument by testing it on a sample of 23 faculty members at the university. The results demonstrated a high degree of validity (i.e., high internal consistency) and reliability (Cronbach's alpha coefficient: .97). The study instrument was administered to a final sample of 69 faculty members (out of 111) at the university. The results demonstrated a decrease in the averages of the obstacles. The arithmetic averages for the obstacles were organizational and professional obstacles (2.76), societal obstacles (2.64), personal and family obstacles (1.87), and skills-related obstacles (1.70). The results demonstrated no significant differences for any obstacles with respect to age, academic rank or scientific specialization. There were significant differences in skills-related obstacles according to the number of completed studies; researchers with no completed projects faced greater obstacles. The results also demonstrated significant differences in societal obstacles associated with the length of time since the last academic rank was received.

In order to meet the study’s goals, a descriptive approach was adopted and a questionnaire was developed. The questionnaire consists from twenty five (25) items. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were measured. The study’s sample consists from three hundred (300) faculty members. They were selected from three Jordanian public universities (i.e. the University of Jordan, Yarmouk University and Mu’tah University). The researchers concluded the following results: 1)- The Jordanian public universities play a moderate role in promoting international educational principles from the perspective of the faculty members 2)- There isn’t any statistically significant difference between the respondents’ attitudes towards the role of Jordanian public universities in promoting international educational principles which can be attributed to gender. However, there are statistically significant differences between the respondents’ attitudes in this regard which be attributed to their academic rank. The latter differences are for the favor of the associate professors. There are statistically significant differences between the respondents’ attitudes in this regard which be attributed to type of faculty. The latter differences are for the favor of the ones who work in scientific faculties. The researchers of the present study recommend exerting more efforts by the administrations of Jordanian public universities to promote international educational principles. They also recommend providing more attention for international education in Jordanian universities. That should be done through holding seminars in order for faculty member to attend and hold discussions about international educational principles and concepts. Such seminars shall enrich the knowledge that faculty members have in this regard. The researchers also recommend promoting awareness among faculty members about the significance of addressing international education-related issues in their lectures.
