About the College

The Gulf University was the first private university in the Kingdom of Bahrain to offer engineering programs when the engineering college was established in 2003. Throughout the years, the college has continued to grow in the number of programs and students. Currently, the college has increased student numbers of nationalities and ethnicities. The College of Engineering is considered excellent in terms of its vision and framework, as demonstrated by its three primary pillars in education, research, and community engagement.

According to the college action plan, the College of Engineering has endeavored to establish two new bachelor's degree engineering programs (Mechanical Engineering and Electrical & Electronic Engineering) in collaboration with the well-known University of Northampton, in the UK. The programs were launched starting from the 1st semester of the 2021-2022 academic year, in addition to the existing Interior Design Engineering program. These programs provide the required modern stimulating learning environments such as laboratories, workshops, and studios that help students improve their practical skills, which are essential for their engineering courses. The college encourages its students to take advantage of all services and other facilities available at Gulf University. As a result, the students will gain skills required for the Bahraini labour market, which will help them acquire the necessary skills, making it a significant part of Bahrain's knowledge-based economy. Finally, the College has a distinguished academic faculty staff in terms of diversity and background in academic experience. However, it is important that all staff at the College, whether academic or administrative staff, feel a sense of contribution through their work and involvement.

Welcome to the College of Engineering at Gulf University. The college consists of three departments. The Architectural and Interior Design Engineering department, which offers a bachelor's degree program in "Interior Design Engineering" which is the first and unique program of its kind in Bahrain comes with the engineering title. The other two engineering departments, Mechanical Engineering and Electrical and Electronic Engineering departments, offer two bachelor's degree programs in collaboration with the well-known University of Northampton in the UK. The college provides practical modern laboratories, workshops, and studios with different types of equipment, software, and other required facilities serving the programs. The College of Engineering seeks to develop the infrastructure in line with the requirements of the labor market in Bahrain and looking forward to uniting with the industry in order to develop curricula and research in the field of exchanging engineering expertise to contribute to community service development. Based on the university's strategic plan, the College of Engineering is keen on further development to offer more engineering programs in various engineering fields and degrees, in cooperation with prestigious international universities. Students who graduate from our program will become highly talented, technically competent, innovative and creative engineers capable of leading positive changes in their local and global surroundings.
