developed to prepare skilledengineers to the energy market in Qatar, the region and the world. Special research programshave been developed for both undergraduate and graduate students as part of this model. Inaddition, new elective courses were drafted and aimed at teaching the students the fundamentalsbehind the applied experiences they gained in the research programs. Furthermore, our study willdiscuss the potential for incorporating such a model as part of the curriculum of the engineeringprogram to prepare the future engineers who will be leading technology development andoperation in a different setup from the previous generations.2.

a global environment, not only in terms of markets butalso design, production and service. It is therefore essential that engineering graduates have anorientation towards this globalization and are prepared to operate effectively within it.”37This curriculum will enhance our students’ education by providing them a unique opportunity towork on multidisciplinary teams and attack global issues. Presenting students with problems thataffect the world around us will always create more compassionate graduates. In this case, thereare also best practices that promote this type of curriculum.The Engineering Technology degrees offered by the School of Engineering and Technology areaccredited by ABET. As part of the accreditation, programs decide on

Global Engineering Competencies and CasesWhether working on multi-national project teams, navigating geographically dispersed supplychains, or engaging customers and clients abroad, engineering graduates encounter worlds ofprofessional practice that are increasingly global in character. This new reality poses challengesfor engineering educators and employers, who are faced with the formidable task of preparingengineers to be more effective in diverse global contexts. In response, more global learningopportunities are being made available to engineering students, as reflected in gradual yet steadyincreases in the number of global engineering programs and participating students.1 Manycompanies are also offering professional development
