College of Engineering - (State)


The College of Engineering was inaugurated in 1980. It had two academic departments only, namely, the Department of Civil Engineering and the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering. Three more departments were inaugurated in 1981. These were the Departments of Architectural Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. By 1989, the construction of 39 laboratories was completed. These laboratories cover the experimental needs of the College for teaching, research, and community service. Two computer laboratories for freshman year students (one for male and one for female students) were completed in 1993.

These provide the chance for students to familiarize themselves with engineering concepts. In the freshman year, students are introduced to the different engineering disciplines. They are also trained in the use of modern technology for engineering education. Finally, these laboratories provide the students with facilities to work on simplified engineering design problems during their freshman year. These freshman labs are part of an integrated plan to modernize engineering education in the university and to keep pace with the international trend to reform engineering education.
Facilities
The most important services and social welfare provided to the male students are to secure the social and psychological climate for all resident students. Secure halls for study and halls for T.V. for the comfort of the resident students. Provide the potable mineral water for all the resident students for the hygiene preservation. Secure medical clinics in the housings for providing the necessary services and first aids to the resident students. These clinics include nurses and a physician works at Al Jimi colleges and refers the cases that need more medical care to Al Ain Governmental Hospital. Provide the health insurance for the students who have no families in the nation.

Secure computer labs in the housings for providing the services necessary for the male students for achieving the researches, holding the training courses, and learning the modern information technology in the whole fields. Secure mosques in the housings for performing prayers and rituals. Secure the transportation means from the housings to colleges and vice versa for transporting the male students to attend the daily lectures. Secure restaurants in the university housings which provide their services for the resident students. Secure a club for innovation (creation) for discovering the talented, creative, and distinguished students.

Also, there is an innovation workshop, by which, the students can refine their hobbies and improve their scientific and engineering abilities. In addition to that, there is a stage in Al Merkhaniah housing (1) for presenting the lectures, symposiums and important meetings which pour in the benefit of the university student. Study the applications submitted to the Student Welfare Fund aiming to providing the possible assistance for some students due to their living and social circumstances.

Secure the social clubs which contribute in improving the sports awareness of the university student, enhancing his sports abilities in an honorable competitive climate, and practicing the various games (baby foot- billiard - chess - table tennis). Secure the sports courts in the male student housings which activate the students to be involved in the extra curricular activities spread in the male student housings which are considered as important supporters to the students to spend their spare time in a good way.

Prepare free competitions ( cultural - religious - national - social ) that activate the male students to exert more effort and giving for being involved in these competitions which such competitions take their continuity from the science and knowledge distinguishing the university student who always seek for improving his knowledge and abilities in an honorable competitive climate. Emerging from this, we always seek for urging the male students to get benefit from the services and welfare available in the housings and to be involved in the various committees, by which, we seek for activating the university life.
Curriculum / Programs
The curriculum takes ten semesters to fulfill the graduation requirement of 168 credit hours, which are distributed as, The University general requirement courses are a group of pre-College courses that every student in the University is required to take. They are adapted for the College of Engineering students. The general culture elective courses are divided into two groups: one is related to humanities and the other to physical sciences. The student chooses two courses from the two groups with the condition that he must take one from each group.

Recently, the College of Engineering Board voted for a resolution that all engineering students must take these two courses in humanities. This resolution is under processing for approval at University level. The table below lists the courses offered in first and second semesters of each academic year, and the departments that offer them. The College requirements are designed to combine theory with practice to educate students who can then contribute to solutions of today's problems and continue to learn to advance their professional careers.

All students of all bachelor programs must successfully complete the courses. The Objectives of the College requirements are directed towards providing the freshman student with intensive career information to make an enlightened decision in selecting his/her career (major) and with the scientific base and state-of-the-art engineering skills which enables him/her to maximize the learning experience in the selected major. The industrial training program prepares the students after successful completion of the junior year, i.e. two terms before graduation, with a well coordinated industrial internship necessary to embellish his/her academic experience and enhance employability and leadership.

An industrially meaningful graduation project is expected to result from the interaction between the student, the College, and industry. The College requirements have been achieved through two means; curricular development and evolution of the teaching methodology. Accordingly, the curriculum of each of the seven Mathematics and Basic Science courses has been developed to contain engineering applications. All are co-taught by faculty from the College of Sciences and the College of Engineering. To complete this program, all students must take two courses as a free elective that are offered in a curriculum of any department in the University, where the student selects 6 credit hours.
