approach, inspired by leading innovative programs suchas the "Ultimate Innovation" program at the University of Tabuk [1]. The proposedtransdisciplinary program is designed to merge technical proficiency with entrepreneurial andmanagement insight, preparing students to lead in the modern engineering landscape.objective The approach aims to enhance the efficiency of graduation projects in colleges for bothmale and female students by strengthening the relationships between colleges, research centersand chairs, developmental sectors, and companies. This goal is to ensure sustainability and fosteran environment of excellence and innovation. The proposed approach draws insights fromvarious studies, such as the integration of different
