College of Engineering

About the CCEN program:

The program aims to provide the students with advanced and comprehensive coverage of specialist skills required by an engineer working in electronic instrumentation, electronic systems, telecommunications (both wireless and wired), and computer hardware and software aspects of computer engineering. Recognizing the need for well-rounded engineers, the program also emphasizes strong communication and interpersonal skills. The enrolled students develop these skills not only through required courses in the humanities and social sciences but also during team projects in design classes.

CCEN Mission:

To provide students with educational experiences which give them a sound basis in computer and communication systems and to prepare the qualified graduates to be professionals capable of being leaders in their chosen careers, committed to life-long learning, innovation, critical thinking, integrity, and civic responsibility.

CCEN Goals:

The undergraduate education in the NU Computer and Communication Engineering Department prepares students to achieve our Program Education Objectives (POE):

Goal1: Use basic science and engineering concepts and skills in interpretation, analysis, and design situations.

Goal2: Engage in successful careers in industry, academia, and public service.

Goal3: Continue their professional development through continuing education and personal development experiences.

Goal4: Communicate with teamwork skills as well as an appreciation for ethical behavior.

Consistency of the Program Mission and Educational Objectives with the Mission of the Institution

The program mission and educational objectives are consistent with those of the University. The key sentence of the University of Nawroz’s mission statement is:

“Meet the cultural needs of Kurdistan through commitment to the educational, technological, and economic development of the society.”

These correspond to CCEN’s mission:

“Provide students with educational experiences which give them a sound basis in computer and communication systems and to prepare the qualified graduates to be professionals capable of being leaders in their chosen careers”
