I think not Omar Althuwaynee

@Omar F. Althuwaynee,

During our research work we seek view of experts who help us in many ways. Research supervisors should be liberal in allowing the students to include the names of the experts as coauthors. However, from my experience I can tell you that real experts do not care for coauthorship.

There are exceptions too. A renowned foreign pteridologist helps others only when he gets authorship.

Any kind of research contribution should be acknowledged. In my opinion experts should be included as coauthors. Subir Bandyopadhyay Kutubuddin Ansari

It seems there is no clear coverage or concept pertaining to giving the student the right to be part of "external/online" research collaboration group and share authorship with actual active members to produce manuscripts. Such professional members chose their members carefully, however the student "supervisor" might not "practically eligible" to join. (Scientific awareness issue!)

So, Is there any statement listed with the institutions internal legislation enjoin the supervisor or the department to give full credit for the external researchers when it comes to manuscript authorship?

So far I know , there is no law for this kind of authorship

Yes there is no law but still require supervisor approval.....

Omar Althuwaynee normally it's the supervisor's business to organize research collaborations. In any case the supervisor decides about authorship.

Graduate studies have a design of shared duties for any student to accomplish. That divided between two parts, courses work and thesis preparation. However the first part is much clearer and well designed and structured by the university. On the other hand, the second part is totally manageable by a supervisor who has to be fair, professional, skilled..Anything not ideal about supervisor, the student has to accept (or comprise)..I see a leak of unfairness.
