The student, Raed Kazem Mohammed Jawad, from the Materials Engineering Department at the University of Technology, received a PhD with a very good degree from his thesis entitled "Study of the Effect of Adding Nanomaterials on the Structural and Mechanical Properties of Reclaimed Concrete Surface from Recycling" on Sunday, 24/9/2017, at the Graduate Hall In the department.
 The researcher pointed out that the possibility of recycle of concrete waste has made it an interesting target and a major focus of waste management policy by encouraging the reduction and recycling of concrete waste. The study also pointed out that the concrete materials were recycled to manufacture recycled fine rubble and its effect when used as an alternative to part of the rubble The natural softness with nanomaterials Alumina and Zaconia was used as an alternative to a part of the cement in the concrete structure on the properties of the concrete surface in terms of microscopic structure.
 The discussion committee consisted of Prof. Mohammed Musleh Salman from Mustansiriya University as president. Dr.. Mohamed Mansourkazem from the University of Babylon and Dr. Mohammed Salab Hamza and Dr. Jawad Kazim Aliwi of the University of Technology and Dr.D. Bismah Mohammed Fahd of the University of Mustansiriyah members of Dr.D. Farhad Mohammed Osman Dr. Alaa Al-Din Abdel-Hamid Musharraf and Assistant Professor Dr. Zeina Khudair Abbas from the University of Baghdad as a scientific member and Assistant Professor Dr. Samir Ali Amin from the University of Technology linguistically.

As part of the scholarship program of the Higher Committee for the Development of Education in Iraq, Haidari thamer Jassim, a graduate student in the Department of Engineering and Systems Engineering at the University of Technology, received a master's degree from the University of New South Wales in Australia for his research entitled: (Cooperative collision-free navigation of multi-wheeled robots in a dispersed, unknowable environment)
 The research included the development of the MPC algorithm for collaborative navigation of a group of robots in the unrecognized environment. It included facilitating and redesigning some of the algorithm steps to make them more efficient in practical applications. It also included the integration of this algorithm with a number of nonlinear Kalman filters for optimal guessing of the location and navigation angle of each robot. This method ensures that each robot is navigated in an unknowable and non-disruptive environment without obstacles or other robots.

The President of the University of Technology Professor.Dr. Amin Douai Thamer congratulated the University of Technology and its staff And students on the occasion of the university for the second place in the national classification of the quality of Iraqi universities, as well as gaining third place ranking among universities most academic achievement for the year 2016 at the level of Iraqi universities.

Lecturer of the Materials Engineering Department at the University of Technology, Dr. Abbas Khammas Hussain, Head of General Materials Engineering Branch, published a scientific book titled Engineering Materials Installation, issued by the Tigris Library in its first edition of 2017. The third chapter deals with the structure of the crystal. The fourth chapter deals with the structure of the atom. The fifth chapter deals with the composition of the solid materials. Chapter 6 contains the crystalline defects, and the seventh and final chapters Phase charts.
