Faculty of Engineering, Sana'a University
The Faculty of Engineering at Sana’a University, established in 1983, is one of the oldest and most distinguished scientific and engineering faculties in Yemen. It is widely recognized as a leading national academic institution that has played a vital role in supplying both the public and private sectors with highly qualified engineering professionals across diverse disciplines that support development, infrastructure, and industry.
The faculty offers modern and continuously developed academic programs that aim to meet the requirements of the labor market and contribute to sustainable national development. It covers a wide range of engineering fields including civil engineering (construction, roads, bridges, geotechnics, dams, water and environment), electrical engineering (power, renewable energy, communications, networks, computers and control systems), mechanical engineering (production, manufacturing, materials, engines, air conditioning and refrigeration, automation of production lines, and mechatronics), as well as architecture and urban planning, and biomedical engineering.
The faculty serves a large student community, with an estimated enrollment ranging from 3,500 to 4,000 students, and graduates approximately 400 to 450 engineers every academic year, contributing significantly to Yemen’s engineering workforce. The faculty also includes a strong academic staff base, consisting of more than 80 PhD holders in various engineering specialties, in addition to a large number of assistant teaching staff, instructors, engineers, and technical specialists.
In addition to undergraduate education, the Faculty of Engineering supports postgraduate studies and academic development, and has made continuous efforts to enhance research and innovation in engineering fields. The faculty’s vision emphasizes excellence in engineering education and scientific research at both local and regional levels, while maintaining strong values in providing high-quality accredited engineering education aligned with development needs and labor market demands.
The faculty also provides valuable academic resources through its library, which contains books, journals, scientific research, and graduation projects that support students, staff, and researchers across different engineering disciplines.

Faculty of Computer and Information Technology, Sanaa University
The rapid development in the field of computer and information technology has led to significant changes in various fields of social, economic and technological life. It is important that the academic institutions, particularly Sana’a University, which is the oldest university in the Republic of Yemen, should keep pace with recent developments in the field of computer and information technology by establishing the scientific majors that emerged from such developments in the field of computer and information technology in a way that meets the huge demand for such majors locally and regionally. Accordingly, the Rector issued a resolution in 2007/2008, followed by the decision of the Supreme Council of Universities too, to establish the Faculty of Computer & Information Technology.
The faculty includes five academic departments as follows:
Institute of Reliable Embedded Systems and Communication Electronics (ivESK), University of Applied Sciences Offenburg, Germany
The Internet of Things is increasingly pervading industrial and personal applications, including, for example, smart meters and smart grids, industrial and process automation, car-to-car and car-to-X communication, home and building automation, telehealth and telecare applications. Wired and wireless networks of embedded systems, as well as their interconnection in “cyber-physical systems” (CPS) are playing an increasingly important role in this context. As more and more systems perform functionally critical tasks autonomously, their reliability and security are also continuing to gain in importance. Consequently, data security and privacy aspects need to be addressed.
The Institute of Reliable Embedded Systems and Communication Electronics (ivESK) at Hochschule Offenburg was formed to focus on these issues. We are especially active in the following areas:
College of Information Engineering (COIE) and College of Engineering at Al-Nahrain University, Iraq
The College of Information Engineering (COIE) and the College of Engineering at Al-Nahrain University in Iraq are two prominent academic institutions that play a vital role in engineering education.
Both colleges aim to prepare qualified engineers capable of meeting modern technological and industrial challenges.
The College of Engineering offers a wide range of traditional engineering disciplines such as civil, mechanical, architectural, medical, optical, and chemical engineering. In contrast, the College of Information Engineering focuses on advanced fields including information technology, telecommunications, multimedia, computer networks, cyber security, and intelligent systems. Together, the two colleges provide a balanced integration of classical engineering foundations and modern digital technologies.
They emphasize high-quality education that combines theoretical knowledge with practical applications.
Both colleges actively support scientific research and innovation through academic projects and laboratories.
Their academic staff members possess strong expertise and research backgrounds.
The colleges contribute to national development by supplying skilled engineers to the job market.
They are considered among the leading engineering colleges at Al-Nahrain University and in Iraq.
