Faculty of Engineering
The Faculty of Engineering at IUEA is one of the fastest faculties of engineering in Uganda and East Africa. It is gaining popularity among faculty leavers, parents, schools students, and industries. This is because all the engineering programmes offered by IUEA are currently supported by international level syllabi and top quality laboratories. Our students, accordingly, will have great employment opportunities.

To meet the requirements of accreditation by the Engineering Accreditation Council of NCHE of Uganda and also complement the theory and practical study at IUEA, a well-structured internship (industrial training) programme in collaboration with industry has been incorporated into the curriculum. The structures of all the programmes offered by the Faculty of Engineering include three periods of training each of 10-15 weeks.
The main aims and objectives of the internship programme are to provide:
Enhanced Employability
Interpersonal and Social Skills
Interrelationships of Theory and Practice
Career Preparation
Insight into the World of Work
Personal Development
Technical Development
This Internship programme will further enhance student’s employability. In many cases the same company at which you had internship training will offer you employment as soon as you graduate. In all cases, you will gain an invaluable insight into the world of work as an Engineer and be better equipped to position yourself for the carrier you seek.
Whether you join IUEA immediately after your secondary education or transfer to us from another institution of higher learning, we offer programmes depending on your prior qualifications and experience. There will be a clear progression of your learning to ensure that you will be empowered with the necessary skills and knowledge to enter the corporate world. If you enter our foundation course first, you will take a range of modules that will assist in developing your basic engineering knowledge prior to entering the degree programme and this allows time for decision on which of our degrees you want to pursue. At all times, our staff will be able to advise you on the choices available at each stage of your studies.
