Objectives

Renewable Energy Program Objectives:
The programme of Renewable Energy aims to develop a thorough knowledge of the viable renewable energy technologies, with special reference to the generation of electricity in Egypt through the following:

  •  Provides a firm technical background in the key renewable energy fields and creates a context for energy production and use.
  • Provides experience in evaluating broader energy issues, in particular related to environmental impacts of energy use.
  • Enables students to specialize in a particular technology or implementation aspect.
  • Enables students to undertake a project related to the specialization in industry, a research laboratory or at the university and during which the student can gain practical or research experience.

Advanced Materials Program Objectives:
The programme of engineering materials aims at:

  •  To equip engineering graduates from different backgrounds with a thorough working knowledge on materials science and engineering and its technologies,to give special attention to the new materials for structural and energy applications including renewable energy materials needs.
  • To produce graduates who will be able to: analyze, develop and design materials for conventional and advanced contemporary application.
  • To conduct research and development activities in the field of materials science and engineering.

Sustainable Engineering Design & Construction Program Objectives:

  • To provide students with a systematic understanding of the knowledge-base of Sustainable Design;
  • To transfer students and practicing engineers into sustainable oriented designers and practitioners;
  • To provide a wider notion of sustainable design beyond green ideals;
  • To integrate architectural and/or structural sustainable concepts underpinning the design of future smart sustainable cities;
  • To develop expertise and abilities to engage students in research and highly professional activities;
  • To provide a programme which meets the educational requirements of all the appropriate professional institutions, both national and international.

Communications and Information Engineering Program Objectives:

  • To provide graduates and working professionals with a broad working knowledge on digital communications, digital signal processing, and information technology.
  • The taught material includes the theoretical foundations as well as advanced topics at the cutting edge of current research.
  • More specifically, the programme aims to produce postgraduates who have acquired and can use a broad base of active knowledge in communication, computer networking and information technologies, and the skills necessary to update, extend and deepen it for career development or further study.
