On Wednesday, 29/11/2017, the President of the University of Technology, Dr. Amin Douai Thamer, opened scientific
 laboratories in the Department of Biomedical Engineering department  in the presence of the Head of the Department,
 Asst.Prof. Dr. Wissam Kazem Hamdan, his administrative and scientific assistants and a number of faculty members and students. 
Dr. Amin Douai Thamer praised the efforts of those who have contributed in the development of the department. After that,
 Prof.Dr. Amin Douai Thamer met the new students in the department and said that the students whom accepted in this section 
are the best in their scientific level and they should continue this progress and keen on excellence and diligence, stressing that the 
group of students admitted in this section since the beginning of its establishment is the nucleus and active contributors in the
 development of this rare and important field, wishing all the conciliatory to serve our beloved Iraq.

As a symbol of the University of Technology's slogan "productive university", the mining and mining department of the department established a scientific visit to the General Company for Mining Industries with third and fourth stage students and their professors. The head of the Mining Engineering Branch in the Department of Production Engineering  Assist. Prof.Sami Al-Rubaie provided a brief description of the branch of mining engineering and the extraction of metals and the directions of the University of Technology to be productive university through the adoption of the Department of Production  Engineering work problems and the development of the quality of the company's products as research for graduate students and research professors, and these research the extraction of silicon from Iraqi sand and the project to restart production lines Copper cathode.

Within the activities of scientific and cultural activity for the first semester of the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology,CFD & Experimental Study the Effect of Nano Material on Drag Force of Iraqi Crude Oil Flow A practical study and application of CFD for the effect of adding nanomaterials on the traction forces in the process of transporting Iraqi crude oil Al Khwarizmi Hall in the department in the presence of the Head of Chemical Engineering Department. Jamal Mouna Ali Al-Rubaie, assistants, branch heads, and a number of my teachers, students and students. The student explained that the dependence of the Iraqi economy entirely on the oil sector, where 95% of the total income of Iraq from hard currency so as to reduce the costs of transportation due to a positive resource especially the present time of Iraq, which is going through difficult economic conditions, and therefore had to choose the safest means and the least cost to be used in Transfer of huge petroleum resources to the center of consumption. In spite of the high cost of laying pipelines, it is faster and cheaper in operation and maintenance and depends on the activation of high pressure at the beginning of the line to ensure the flow of oil material or derivatives, and of course, the speed of natural gas during the move is higher than crude oil or high viscosity materials. The friction between the oil material with the walls of the pipe reduces its speed and then requires a new stage of pressure, so there are about 50 to 250 km points of strengthening (pumps). It aims to find the best additive (drag reduction) to reduce friction losses for transporting crude oil.

 The Department of Laser and Optoelectronics Engineering held a scientific seminar at Femtosecond Laser and Its Applications which included four scientific lectures.The head of the Department of Laser and Optical Electronics, Dr. Mohamed Abdel Wahab Manshid said in his speech: "Our department, since its establishment and its branches (laser engineering branch and optical electronics branch), is striving to keep abreast of the development of laser applications. With this new day, our seminar includes four specialized scientific lectures in the field of laser. At the end of the seminar recommendations will be written to be a path of interaction and communication in order to serve the society and its institutions.In conclusion, the symposium recommended focusing on the government departments and the private sector, especially the Ministry of Health, on the importance of using femtosecond laser in medical and scientific applications, expanding the applied research for graduate students in the department and outside it in cooperation with the relevant institutions through mutual supervision, In this field, the Department of Laser and Optical Electronics Engineering has an important role in the development of the scientific potential of students in the preliminary and higher studies. It has opened workshops to introduce the importance of this laser and its applications in all magazines.

Based on the principle of enforcing the academic work relations between the University of Technology / English Language Center and all government departments, and in implementation of the instructions of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research / Research and Development Department, which states (obtaining a participation certificate in training courses to develop students skills in English and computer) as one of the requirements in post graduate applications, the English language center announces the beginning of  registration process on efficiency test.
