Within the framework of the Faculty of Engineering's keenness and approval from the dean of the college Dr. Ibrahim Al-Falki. A group of graduates students of Chemical Engineering Department visited to Aramco in Ras Tanura on 11-13/04/2018 under the supervision of Dr. Atef El Jery and Dr. Yasser Fahmy. The aim of the visit includes  identifying advanced systems oil and gas production. This plant is one of the most important biggest plant in the region, fulfilling health and safety requirements. We were welcomed by a group of members of the Public Relations Department of Saudi Aramco. The program began on Thursday 12/04/2018 with the screening of a film about energy in Saudi Aramco under the slogan "This Saudi Aramco - Energy for the World". In a presentation given by the executive director of four oil refineries in Saudi Arabia, engineer Suleman Al Bargan, stressed the  programs of communication with the community in Saudi Arabia and indicated the role of citizenship and the company's record in communicating with the community and the environment, and also briefed the students on the stages of exploration and drilling of oil using latest technology. The oil paved the way for unprecedented events in the field of oil exploration and leading to change the world. He spoke of the flexibility that Aramco has in providing opportunities amidst the challenges in the oil and gas industry. The company has maintained its long-term integrated strategy, supporting capital efficiency sustainable investment, the development of technology, and the enhancement of human resources.

In the field of refining, processing and marketing, the company's executive director pointed out that the company's plan to integrate the refining network with the production facilities of chemicals and industrial complexes hosting the associated value has reached an advanced stage with the starting the chemical company. He also point out that work is being completed quickly to finish Jazan refinery project at an accelerated pace. He said that the Ras Tanura Refinery won the Emerson International Trust Award for Best Reliability Program as the first company in the Middle East being presented this award. The company's Traffic Safety Program received the Best Public Awareness Campaign, and the Environmental Education Program received the best responsibility initiative Social. After those, the students received a through training by engineer Imed Ghamdi composing all the stage from receiving and sorting the raw materials until the final product. And then we went  to visit  the labs for understanding. We took lunch all together in the presence of the executive director of oil refineries. The  executive director expressed his happiness by meeting us and urged students to increase their efforts and work for this country. This visit must have a positive impact for connecting the students of chemical engineering with the national industries in the country and integrating the educational process. And in the end of this visit the supervisors expressed their thanks and gratitude for the contribution of Aramco through its employees and through the accompanying engineer Imed Al-Ghamdi for the useful information and the value of strengthening the scientific approach program.

Visit of Faculty of Engineering, Mechanical Engineering Department, Dr. Ali Mohammed Al Khuzaim, Dr. Fawzi Al Askari, Dr. Ibrahim Al Sisi, To discuss areas of joint cooperation and honoring the members of the Advisory Committee at the College of Engineering from the Technical College Engineer Salem Saleh Al-Ghamdi and Engineer Ibrahim Mohammed Mervat.

University Rector, Dr. Faleh Al-Solamy, concluded the Fourth Annual Olympic Games, which were held by the Deanship of Student Affairs, represented by the Sports Activities Department. The College of Engineering was handed the Olympic Cup for the football championship and the shield and flag for the Fourth Sports Olympic Games after narrowly defeating the Faculty of Pharmacy in a penalty shoot-out in the presence of many senior leadership figures and crowds of supporting students. During the closing ceremony, event and tournament winners received awards and certificates. The Faculty of Engineering came in first place in the football league and secured the Fourth Olympic Sports Shield flag and championship cup.

The training course took place in a very comfortable conditions and the students who were present with great enthusiasm and interest followed "Introduction to Rock Mechanics", which is considered as an important part of geotechnical field. The audience was more than expected. The attendees have discovered another discipline, which differs completely from Soil Mechanics. It is focused on the discontinuities rather than on the rock matrix, and is based on the theory of discontinua and that of the blocks, which confer the Rock Mechanics its main originality. The rock mass classification system has also attracted their attention since the philosophy and the principle are unique and fare from those of Soil Mechanics.

Within the framework of the Faculty of Engineering's keenness on the importance of visits and within the framework of the program, field visits for each semester, a group of students from the Department of Chemical Engineering visited the Al-Jazeera Paints Company in Khamis on Monday 12/3/2018, and was accompanied by a faculty number  Dr. Atef Mohammed El Jery. The aim of this visit is to identify advanced systems in addition to the approved stages for the production of paints of various types. This plant is one of the most important factories in the region, which respects health and safety requirements. The production line is based on automatic production technology and the production value is 400 million tons/year of all kinds of paints. The basic processes through during the receiving and sorting stages of the raw material were explained until the final product was presented by Eng. Yahya Al Shahrani and then he took the students to see these processes on the ground and to stand at every part of the production stages and explain them. This visit has had a positive impact, because  of linking those the chemical engineering students by the manufacture of paints in the country and integration in the educational process. At the end of the visit, Dr. Atef El Jery expressed his thanks and gratitude to Eng. Ismail Al-Ahmari, Director of Al-Jazeera Paints Academy for his good reception. He also thanked Engineer Yahya Al Shahrani for useful and valuable information which enabled him to promote the new scientific approach.

Within the framework of fruitful cooperation between the Faculty of Engineering and Community Institutions, the students of the graduation project under the supervision of Dr. Ahmed Said Abdel Hafez Zedan, the sewage purification and treatment plant in Abha city on Tuesday, 6-3-2018.
