Enhancing Knowledge Economy Concept among the Students: Case Study from Sultan Qaboos University

The knowledge economy concept is a very huge science that has been established in the last few decades. The importance of this science comes from enabling the post-graduate and freshman graduate students to find the best match to their student qualifications. The researchers aimed to find out the level of awareness of the knowledge economy concept among the students at Sultan Qaboos University and the best ways of improving and enhancing the concept of the knowledge economy. A lot of research shows that most students do not have more details about the knowledge economy and its features to improve their skills.

Researchers to spread fresh information have conducted a questionnaire to a controlled group of students from Sultan Qaboos University. The control group includes students from different majors, gender, and academic performance levels. The researchers used the questionnaire tool for data collection in order to achieve the research objectives. The researchers also conducted an interview with one of the faculty of the university to find out more about the knowledge economy innovation levels at the university.

According to the results, the researcher has found out that there are a lot of activities and practices that have been established in the university, but the students were not aware of them and did not match them correctly with the knowledge economy concept. Accordingly, the researchers have established some recommendation points which will help in enhancing and improving the awareness of knowledge economy concepts and skills among students.
