Welcome to College of Engineering at Sultan Qaboos University (SQU). Whether you want to be an engineer or like to be involved in the college, we hope that you will be satisfied by visiting our college.

In the College of Engineering we are striving to achieve our vision of being an outstanding educational and research college in the region. The College of Engineering is the top Engineering College in Oman and offers strong undergraduate programs in architectural, chemical and process, civil, electrical and computer, industrial, mechanical, mechatronics, and petroleum and natural gas engineering. At the postgraduate level, we offer Master of Science and Ph.D programs in civil, electrical and computer, industrial, mechanical, and petroleum and natural gas engineering.

We are committed to maintaining and enhancing high quality programs. Since its inception in 1986, the College has employed an effective quality control policy for its programs. It gives us pride to be recognized by ABET, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. It is the primary organization responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and certifying the quality of applied science, engineering, and engineering technology education in the United States.

The programs in Civil Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Petroleum & Natural Gas Engineering are substantially equivalent to accredited programs in the United States. Other programs, Industrial Engineering, Architectural Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering and Chemical Engineering  are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET, Inc.

Our graduate programs that are built on existing resources and strengths, provide opportunities for students and stimulation for faculty members. We hope that in future, these programs will create new technologies that can lead to an expanded economic base for Oman.

Being a member of the International Association for the Exchange of students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) has enabled the College to afford many of its students the opportunity to train in member countries such as Germany, Japan, Greece, UK, Ireland, Norway, Switzerland, and many others.

The College has the highest level of externally funded research within the University. In addition, the College houses a number of University research centers: the Remote Sensing & GIS Center, the Communication & Information Research Center, the Oil & Gas Research Center, and the Water Research Center. We enjoy strong international cooperation with prominent universities including Aachen (Germany), Tours (France) as well as the Middle East Desalination Research Center (Oman) and the Japan Cooperation Centre Petroleum (JCCP).

The College of Engineering is proud of its leading role in the University, being at the forefront of teaching, research and community service. This is a result of the teamwork, commitment and dedication of all faculty, staff and students which are clearly evident in this website.
