About CE

In Fall 2007, in consultation with education experts in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, a decision was made by the UBT Board of Trustees to establish an Engineering College with three specific programs – namely, Industrial Engineering, Electronics and Communications, and Computer Engineering. In later years, Civil Engineering and IT programs were added to the college. Currently, in light of the 8th strong labor market requirements for engineers of various specializations, CE aims to honor the University of Business and Technology’s guarantee of "Education for Job Opportunities". We continue to strive in providing the disciplines that benefit the immediate requests of multiple industries. Now we have six programs and thirty tracks were updated to what we now know as the College of Engineering (CE). Our CE programs are licensed by the Ministry of Education (MOE), and are in high demand by entry-level students and 2-year technical colleges’ graduates. CE is located in a unique state-of-the-art building that was especially designed for engineering education. It boasts an outstanding line-up of professional educators from various disciplines and is duly equipped with up-to-date laboratory equipment. CE provides academic education and research that meet high academic standards.

Vision

To be recognized as a leading college of engineering and information technology in the region – developing entrepreneurial skills, engineering competencies, and applied research.

Mission

CE provides a high-quality engineering and information technology education that meets national and international standards, and pursues applied research that contributes to the broader community. Its academic programs equip students with the skills and knowledge required for becoming successful engineers, technologists, innovators and entrepreneurs in the local and global business environments.
