Department head’s speech

I welcome   unique visitors to the website of Department of Oil and Gas Engineering at Emirates International University .  It is worth noting that oil and gas engineering combines the natural and engineering sciences necessary to design, operate and manage exploratory and productive operations, and evaluate and develop oil and gas fields, as the oil and gas sector is considered a vital sector and of utmost importance in supporting national economies in producing countries, and in many of them it constitutes a stone. It is the basis for building these economies, and even the main nerve for producing the energy needed for other industries in the world, and providing raw materials for them, especially in the field of petrochemicals . The study in Department of Oil and Gas at  Emirates International  University is distinguished by the availability of the latest specialized laboratories required to implement the practical part for 8 specialized courses within  22 specialized courses that have been described within an academic program that meets national academic standards and international engineering standards (ABET). The educational process in the department is managed by an elite group of Specialized cadres with distinguished competencies and field experience to achieve the objectives of the academic program and meet the graduate’s specifications. This is in addition to students benefiting from practicing scientific activities, training, participating in regional competitions, and being provided with the latest techniques and technology in the petroleum industry from senior specialists and from the library of the largest international Society of Petroleum Engineers   (SPE) through     the EIU-SPE Student Chapter, given that all the department’s students are membersof the association.      Thank you for your visit, and I am happy to receive your inquiries, suggestions and comments via the e-mail below . farea3@eiu-edu.net
