Note these key Arabic words :
Government : حكومة
Council : مجلس
Subjects : مواضيع
Internal : داخلي
Law (as an academic subject) : الحقوق
Lectures : محاضرات
Exams : امتحانات
Diploma : دبلوم
Unfortunately, the list of subjects that have been studied by the diploma holder is very small to read. I will copy them (with the translation) into this post in the near future.
