Doha, Qatar – A workshop was held at CNA-Q by the QAPCO Student Engineering Club that enabled Engineering students from CNAQ and CCQ to meet and interact with industrial experts on subjects related to their studies.
The aim of the workshop was to take the students outside of the classroom, to focus on the real-life applications and processes found in a modern-day petrochemical plant and to give them a flavour of what it’s really like in the field. The keynote speakers were Mr Rasim Qureshi, QAPCO’s HSSE Support Manager and Mr Adel Elhsaeri, Materials & Certification Inspector, from the Integrity Department of QAPCO.
The QAPCO Student Engineering Club was launched in 2017 in order to provide a specialized forum for engineering students that will enable the promotion of all matters relating to engineering. In collaboration with the College of Engineering at Qatar University, Texas A&M University – Qatar, Community College Qatar and the College of the North Atlantic – Qatar, this new initiative will, through a series of special events such as this workshop, build a community within the education sector in Qatar, that will bridge science and technology issues, further engaging Qatari and expatriate engineering students.
Membership of the Club is comprised of academic staff and students from the partner Universities and Colleges: as well QAPCO employees and Developees and will enable networking with engineering students from other Universities and Colleges, professors and professionals from QAPCO as well as facilitating research projects and conducting valuable experiments.
