Humanities graduates have serious concerns about their employment status in the society. The increase in graduates in this field, especially due to the growing number of higher educational institutes in the country, requires policymakers to adopt more logical and practical measures to deal with the problem. Using future research, the current paper aims to draw a picture of the employment status of humanities graduates. The research method is qualitative, with the statistical population being professors and experts in the field of humanities. There is purposeful sampling method where the data collection tool was a semi-structured interview. After implementing the interviews, its components were identified at the level of litany, social causes, discourse/worldview and myth/metaphor. At the litany level, categories of "unemployment crisis", "abandoned and marginalized humanities", "inefficient/unskilled humanities" and "lack of independent identity" were created. At the level of systematic causes, a set of cultural-social and economic factors are marked as fundamental ones. At the level of discourse/worldview, product-oriented, post-modern, Islamic humanities and problem-oriented discourses were used. At the level of metaphor/myth, metaphorical interpretations of the boy of engineer, Professor Balthazar, the Achilles heel of national development and advanced/regressive sciences were used. Finally, with a literature review and referring to the interviews and going back and forth and asking the opinion of experts and specialists, the two driving forces of an engineering-like and top-down view against the provision of open intellectual and academic space and the policy of unifying sciences were found. In contrast to the development of interdisciplinary studies approach, four scenarios were identified and developed.

 Considering the essential role of universities in the development of science and technology. In organizing educational activities in universities, special attention should be paid to the quality of education and research and how the two are related. This study aimed to investigate the factors affecting research experiences in the dissertation process of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences postgraduate students.

 The research method was descriptive-analytical cross-sectional on 222 students of Ardebil University of Medical Sciences who had defended their thesis during the second semester of the academic year 2018-2019 and were in the settlement phase of the study. The data collection tool was the standard PREQ questionnaire with the latest version containing seven main factors.

 Overall, the results showed that among the seven scales, the highest mean transparency was observed among the students, followed by the higher mean score of research skill development. Also, among the students of different faculties and college students, there were no significant differences in the overall satisfaction of the research experience with the different educational backgrounds and students of a different gender.

 According to the results of the present study, it is suggested that university professors in dealing with students of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences emphasize ethics in performing specialized tasks as a fundamental value and pass it on to their students.

A self-excited oscillating jet can be naturally produced by discharging a plane jet into a rectangular cavity due to pressure effects and without a need for external aid. In recent years, the self-oscillatory jet in non-isothermal conditions has attracted research interests because of its wide range of industrial applications. Therefore, the current study aimed to compare the oscillatory behavior of downward vertical self-excited jet with Reynolds number (Re) 1000 and 3000 under various temperature differences (0, 100, and 300 K) between inletflow and cavity’s wall. Computational solutions were obtained using unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and energy equations for an incompressible flow. The numerical simulation was carried out by the finite-volume based tool OpenFOAM code. The results showed that depending on the value of temperature difference, oscillatory and non-oscillatory flows were observed. Also, at Re=3000, the temperature differences can change oscillation frequency up to 10% compared to isothermal conditions. This value reaches 58% at Re=1000. The results indicated that where the Archimedes number is less than 0.1, the effects of temperature differences between jet and cavity walls on the oscillating behavior are negligible.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between organizational agility and innovative work behaviors with job satisfaction of second grade secondary school teachers in Ardebil City.The research method was descriptive-correlation. The population of this research was all secondary school teachers of Ardebil in the academic year of 2016-2017 among whom 129 teachers were selected by cluster random sampling and filled in organizational agility questionnaire by Zhang et al, Innovative Work Behavior Questionnaire by Holman et al., and Job satisfaction questionnaire by Berifield et al.  Data analysis was performed through Pearson’s correlation coefficient and regression analysis.The results of the study showed that there was significant positive correlation between organizational agility and innovative work behaviors with teachers' job satisfaction. Also, the results of regression analysis revealed that roughly 0.42% of the total variance of job satisfaction was predicted based on the variables of organizational agility and innovative work behaviors (p <0.01).Therefore, the results of this study showed that increasing the organizational agility of innovative behaviors helps to increase the job satisfaction of teachers, which calls for the attention of authorities and educators to these variables.
