Department of laboratories and engineering workshops

Engineering Workshops provide students with both theoretical and practical learning and training on various types of hand tools used in manual work (such as measuring instruments, etc.). It also introduces them to the tools and equipment used in carpentry, as well as the processes of metalworking (turning/lathe operations). In addition, students practice making sand molds and casting different metallic shapes (foundry work), and gain knowledge of the most common and widely used types of welding (welding processes).

They include six main workshops::

1. Carpentry section
2. Hand Tools section
3. 3Lathing section
4. Metal Melting, Casting, and Forming section
5. Metal sheet and forming section
6. Welding section

The Practical Physics Laboratory is an academic facility dedicated to the implementation of experimental activities in the field of classical mechanics and the physics of motion. Its primary objective is to reinforce students’ conceptual and theoretical understanding of General Physics through structured practical applications. The laboratory is equipped with advanced and up-to-date instrumentation that enables precise execution of experiments, conducted under the supervision of highly qualified academic and technical staff, in accordance with recognized educational and laboratory standards.

enables students to explore both the theoretical and practical aspects of renewable energy systems in all their forms. The laboratory was established and equipped with the latest devices and equipment dedicated to renewable energy systems, built to the highest standards to keep pace with changes in the curriculum of theoretical courses in Mechanical Engineering/Renewable Energy. It operates under the supervision of a qualified technical staff, academically and professionally trained.

The laboratory allows the student to become familiar with a wide range of measuring tools, their operation, and uses. The laboratory has been established and equipped with the latest devices and specialized equipment in the field of engineering measurements according to the highest standards to keep up with the changes in the study plan of the theoretical course for the Fire and Safety Engineering and Mechanical/Energy Engineering (Renewable Energy) specializations, under the supervision of a qualified technical staff, academically and technically trained.

The Strength of Materials Laboratory aims to help students understand the mechanical behavior of materials under various loading conditions. It is equipped with modern instruments and high-standard equipment, and supported by a qualified and well-trained technical staff. It provides both destructive and non-destructive experimental tests, including tension, torsion, bending, hardness, fatigue, creep, impact, and photoelasticity. These experiments are offered to reinforce the theoretical knowledge of students specializing in Fire Safety Engineering and Mechanical Engineering / Renewable Energy.

The Heat Transfer Laboratory aims to help students understand the principles and mechanisms of heat transfer, including conduction, convection, and heat exchange processes. It is equipped with modern instruments and high-standard equipment, and supported by a qualified and well-trained technical staff. The laboratory provides hands-on experiments using devices such as conduction and convection units, heat exchangers, filmwise and dropwise condensation systems, thermal conductivity apparatus, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and an environmental refrigerator. These experiments are designed to enhance the theoretical understanding of students in Firefighting and Safety Engineering as well as Mechanical Engineering / Renewable Energy.

The Emergency Trauma Training Laboratory is a hands-on educational environment designed to prepare students to manage a wide range of emergency injury cases. The laboratory includes a variety of training manikins configured to simulate multiple realistic trauma scenarios, as well as different types of specialized splints. This allows students to gain practical experience in rapid assessment, clinical decision making, and the implementation of emergency care procedures using specialized equipment and tools, within a safe setting that closely replicates real field conditions.

It contains the modern equipment for accessing medical cases that the student can access on-site, resulting from illnesses or medical complications, before going to the hospital or the emergency department

This laboratory provides many mannequins and models that enable the student to practice performing natural childbirth and other gynecological emergencies and dealing with problems and complications that may accompany them, in addition to conducting various examinations such as checking the fetal heartbeat. The student is also trained on the possibility of dealing with emergency medical cases for children, whether resulting from a disease or injuries, before reaching the hospital.
