Allfundamental engineering skills, including mechanization, automation, creating new andmodernization of existing technologies, and other kinds of activity, should, first of all, aim atsociety and its members. Existing social and technical reality requires professionals with broadoutlook and systemic thinking, able to see interdisciplinary connections. Contemporarytechnologies create a specific environment. Nowadays every engineering decision intrudes intosocial reality, transforms it, creates and imposes new material needs, and sets up new qualitystandards

The third level covers theprofessional skills and include the cultural immersion, foreign language courses, in addition tocourses in policy, and management. The third level courses are also mandatory to all students inthe program. Designing the curriculum in this fashion is meant to integrate the engineeringcompetency within a cultural, global context. In other words, the student going through thisprogram will have to communicate his/her engineering knowledge through practical experiencewithin a global environment. Additionally, the sequence of the course offerings ensured thestudents are exposed to all three
