According to the rapid developments in the labor market and the emergence of need for specializations that combine more than one specialization with the need for the main specialization to remain, and the challenge facing graduates of the university's programs in finding job opportunities for the programs available at the university and the university's desire to provide students with the opportunity to open other important options for studying in specializations that are not available in their colleges in which they were accepted, which will either be supportive for the main specialization or be a contributory to open important additional job opportunities in case that they cannot be employed. In their main specialization, these controls came to keep up what is happening in the international reference universities, achieve a general national interest and add greater flexibility in the university's programs.
