The Civil and Infrastructure Engineering (CIEN) program is a unique undergraduate program in the United Arab Emirates and in the region as it concentrates on infrastructure engineering in addition to traditional civil engineering areas. The CIEN program prepares students to excel in several sectors including building design and construction, highways and transportation, planning and management, and consulting.

Architecture program requires students to apply principles of architecture and basic science to model, analyze, design, and realize physical environments, components or processes; and prepare students to work professionally in architectural areas. The program provides students with an excellent foundation in the core technical competencies of the discipline: design, building construction, and history and theory of architecture with special consideration to sustainability and green architecture. In addition, an array of technical electives is offered to enable students to tailor their Architectural education to best suit their career goals. The technical focus is complemented with topics in general education leading to a well-rounded member of the global society.

The Program’s mission is to prepare students to be fully abreast of the latest developments in all areas of Engineering Management. This program is designed to suit students who are interested to be researchers in engineering management as well as those who hold or seek managerial and decision-making positions in public and private organizations characterized by innovation and technological leadership. Graduates of this program are expected to competently fill key positions in their fields of interest and to lead the ongoing process of modernization and development in the United Arab Emirates and abroad. The program seeks to equip students with the ability to define, evaluate, design, improve, and manage complex human technological systems for the purpose of optimizing certain objectives taking into account several interrelated factors such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, sustainability, and others.

Individuals with combined technical expertise and business skills are increasingly in demand by organizations that seek a sustainable competitive advantage. If you hold a bachelor’s degree in engineering and your career goal is to be a manager or business leader, then the program in engineering management at the University of Sharjah is specifically designed for you. As part of its commitment to providing high quality education at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, the University of Sharjah launched a graduate program leading to a Master’s Degree in Engineering Management (MEM) in Fall 2013-14.

The Department of Nuclear Engineering is a four-year study that provides students with a solid knowledge in nuclear engineering. Students spend the first segment of their study in acquiring skills that serve as the foundation for later courses.

In the second segment students learn the fundamentals of nuclear engineering and gain knowledge in multiple related engineering topics including electronics, materials, and fluid mechanics.

In the third and final segment of their study, students take advanced courses in nuclear engineering, undergo an eight-week practical training, and complete senior design projects.

The Nuclear Engineering Program is the only program in the UAE that offers a BS degree in nuclear engineering. The program is committed to producing competent and highly-skilled engineers who are well prepared to work in the nuclear engineering field.
