Dear guests, since 2014, we have held this conference with our colleagues from the Faculty of Engineering at TISHK International University. Our partnership has been strengthening throughout the years.
Our aim from such conferences is to build a concrete platform for our local academic staff and researchers with international academics. The forum has provided great long-term sharing of knowledge and discussing the latest issues and the current hot topics worldwide.
This year, the conference will be presented face to face in addition to the availability of an online platform. IEC 2022 brings together more than 130 academics and researchers from different academic institutions and organizations in 11 countries (China, Oman, Macaw, India, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Mexico, Senegal, Sudan, Malaysia). They will present and share knowledge in Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, and General Engineering.
Erbil Polytechnic University aims to contribute to knowledge advancements, enhance its ranking, and improve the quality of research. Organizing international conferences is part of the EPU’s strategy towards internationalization and globalization. This step leads to enhancing the quality of life, providing better services for the community, and addressing social and regional issues and problems.
Again, I would like to welcome everyone warmly, and I hope you have a productive and fruitful two days of scientific discussions and networking.
I would also like to mention my gratitude to both universities’ great teamwork and collaboration for their hard work to make this event happen. Thanks to the higher scientific and organizing committee. I want to express my sincere appreciation to every one of you who has worked tirelessly to ensure the success of this conference.
I wish you all two fruitful days in Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan Region.
It is worth mentioning that this conference continues for two days, 23-24/02/2022. More than 130 academics and researchers from different academic institutions and organizations over 11 countries attend it to share information in various engineering fields.
