The Department of Astronomy and Space at the College of Science, University of Baghdad, was established in 1998. The department has undergraduate (BSc) and postgraduate (M.Sc. and Ph.D.) programs.[1]. It's located at Baghdad University campus in Baghdad, Iraq. This is the only department of astronomy in Iraq[2]
The Department aims towards academic development in the field of astronomy and astrophysics in Iraq, it's the so far only official academic institution that specializes in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, space physics, and all other related topics.
The Department of Astronomy and Space at the Baghdad University is one of nine departments belonging to the Faculty of Science. It was established in 1998. The department is a unique institution for the research and education in the field astronomy and astrophysics in Iraq. Aiming to educate highly qualified astronomers working in all related fields to Physics[3].
The Department is currently the national representative of Iraq in the International Astronomical Union (IAU), since 2021[4] , with currently 23 individual and junior members.

Field of study at the B.Sc. level includes, general astronomy, galactic physics, thermodynamics, modern physics, nuclear astrophysics, and more. B.Sc. is given after four years study, with a degree in astronomy and astrophysics. M.Sc. level has more advanced topics, such as advanced stellar physics, mathematical physics, space physics communications, and more[5]. As for the Ph.D. level, the courses are more advanced on satellites, ionosphere physics, advanced cosmological plasma, and more[6]. To 2019, there were 77 M.Sc. and 24 Ph.D. graduated students from this department[7].
The department has a 3-meter radio telescope, Baghdad University Radio Telescope (BURT) [8]which facilitate current research on radio astronomy in Iraq. This is the only operating radio telescope at the University of Baghdad[9].
Activities
[edit]The department held the Second International Conference of Astronomy and Space Physics (ICAS-2) between 24th to 26th October 2023[10]. The first conference was held in 2000
The department has participated in the Asteroid Day a UN-sanctioned global awareness campaign participated annually on 30 June each year [11]
