أصبحت شروط التوظيف في مجال التدريس القانوني مختلفة عما اعتدناه من قبل. منها ما هو معقول ومنها ما هو محل نظر. اصبح الاهتمام بتدريس القانون باللغة الانجليزية ملحوظا وكذلك النشر العلمي باللغة الانجليزية في مجلات مدرجة في تصنيف سكوبس بالاضافة الي التوجه نحو موضوعات قانونية مستحدثة ومتخصصة الي حد ما مثل القانون والتكنولوجيا او القانون الرياضي او قانون الملكية الفكرية او التحكيم. بالاضافة لوجود خبرة ادارية لا سيما فيما يتعلق بالاعتماد الاكاديمي او ادارة مجلة وادراجها في تصنيف سكوبس او ادارة عيادة قانونية او مسابقة محاكمة صورية. كل ماسبق مهم للجامعات التي تسعى نحو التميز عالميا والحصول على تصنيف متميز وفق التصنيفات المختلفة للجامعات. لكن أتمنى ألا ننسى ان الجامعات هي قاطرة التنمية في مجتمعاتنا، ويتوقف ذلك على قدرتها على التواصل مع طوائف المجتمع المختلفة، ومن هنا تبرز اهمية النشر باللغة العربية في المجلات العربية التي ينبغي ان تولي أهمية لاحتياجات المجتمعات العربية
شروط التوظيف السابق ذكرها ستنعكس بشكل كبير على موضوعات الاجندة البحثية لأعضاء هيئة التدريس عندنا حيث يطغى الاهتمام بنشر ما يجذب اهتمام المجلات الاجنبية المصنفة في سكوبس (مثلا، الي حد ما، القانون كما هو كائن بالفعل)، وهي بدورها في مجتمعاتها لها اولويات تختلف عن اولويات مجتمعاتنا (مثلا، الي حد ما، القانون كما ينبغي ان يكون) التي ينبغي ان تكون محل اهتمام في اجنداتنا البحثية
