Key Summary
This BEng Energy Engineering is underpinned by “Sustainability” and “Technology” where the curriculum is designed systematically to provide students with a broad understanding of sustainability in various aspects related to Energy and particularly on decarbonizing the Energy sector. In addition, the aim is to provide students with state of the are Technology required for the 4IR where digitalization and Artificial Intelligence are the major part of the Energy industry to improve efficiency and develop new renewables and their applications such as electric vehicles.
“Energy Engineering” would be a promising bachelor's program to be offered as a response to the aforementioned needs in the coming years. The focus of this program is mainly related to renewable energy resources and the associated technologies while energy efficiency and the role of fossil energy and its contribution to the future energy mix are also covered. It is believed that the near-term energy outlook is a mix of Oil, gas, and renewables. Students learn knowledge, thinking skills, subject-based practical skills, and skills for life, and work as global citizens. The BEng Energy Engineering graduates will be capable to deal with all Energy Engineering aspects including energy systems design, operation, monitoring, and system troubleshooting, project engineering, energy resource management, and a detailed understanding of a range of renewable energy technologies. The main objective of this program is to prepare fresh, relevant, and innovative Omani engineers for the fulfillment of Oman's 2040 vision, where those young engineers can create a balanced development, utilization, and sustainability of natural resources that are a priority to support energy security and the national economy.
