FACULTY OF
ENGINEERING

It gives me great pleasure to introduce the Faculty of Engineering at the Modern University of Technology and Information (MTI).You should be commended for your insight in considering Engineering as a career field. Industry Analysts, all over the world, agree that Engineering and Technology is the career of the Twenty first Century and beyond. As engineering leads the way for the industry into the high tech era, MTI has earned a position of leadership with its collaboration with several first class European Universities. The purpose of our Faculty of Engineering is to provide a multi discipline oriented Engineering Educational program of such fundamental background, scope and excellence. These enable students to achieve competency and proficiency for conductive careers, and in doing so, develop character, judgment, breath of view and understanding of our social and economic systems. To meet this end, the faculty maintains all necessary material, human and academic resources. The faculty is equipped with all modern laboratories and the staff is highly qualified academics, selected from national and international universities, most of them are full timers. The curriculum is designed with the state of the art to meet the international accreditations standards. I wish you all the success for your future, and I trust that you will find your chosen courses of specialty to be both richly rewarding and stimulating.
