Abstract: This paper presents the view that the scientific research is considered as the fundamental pillar of building knowledge community and information, it is the major task that characterizes at present universities, universities become more interested besides teaching, and the teaching establishments play a major role in the scientific research system.Through it, universities all over the world pay and dedicate assistance to scientific research and researchers, they create the adequate scientific environment and pay the necessary fund, dedicate laboratories and scientific equipment to produce knowledge and enrich and publish it.Scientific research laboratories are regarded as modern organizational structures within Algerian universities.These laboratories represent newly established entities designed to advance scientific research and generate knowledge, gaining widespread acceptance due to their status as formal institutions.They operate with a clear set of objectives, primarily focused on providing intellectual and scientific services to society, under the supervision of dedicated researchers.Therefore, the integration of research and development laboratories within universities has significantly increased their responsibility toward scientific research and its resulting studies and outcomes.This has placed Algerian universities under greater pressure than ever before to meet these expectations, especially considering the considerable importance Algeria has attached to these scientific structures.Substantial investments have been made in equipping these laboratories and allocating significant budgets, reflecting the recognition of the necessity to prioritize scientific research and establish universities as major hubs of knowledge across various fields and disciplines.We try through this study to shed light on the role of scientific research laboratories in achieving the higher education goals, and the problem they face regarding the university scientific research laboratories in the field of Human and Social Science, and how to make an effective role of these laboratories in the field of scientific research.
