1. Our Unprecedented Capstone Project
A “capstone” is the last stone placed on top of a pyramid. KUAS provides capstone projects to engineering students between their 4th and 7th semesters to complete their programs. Students collaborate within small teams and engage “in the field” with real-world problems proposed by our partner companies. The industry experience earned through these projects allows students to learn about social issues they can solve by applying the skills and knowledge that they have obtained in the classroom. In addition, students will acquire communication skills essential for teamwork, how to combine their ideas with their classmates’ ideas, and other skills required for working in society.
A capstone project is the first step towards becoming a street-smart global engineer.

2. Multidisciplinary Engineering Program
Studies at KUAS Engineering are unparalleled to any other program and take a multidisciplinary learning approach. Students can gain a multifaceted perspective of engineering by concurrently learning mechanics, electricity, programming, etc. beyond their respective frameworks. Becoming well-versed in multiple specialized fields maximizes the students’ potential and leads them to discover new technologies. Providing limitless opportunities to feed the student’s desire for knowledge, KUAS’ curriculum is perfect for innovators that will lead the future of engineering.
3. Versatile State-of-the-art Facilities
The Engineering Building is equipped with a vast variety of state-of-the-art facilities and equipment to ensure that our students have everything necessary to sufficiently study our curriculum, which places heavy emphasis on multidisciplinary learning and hands-on training. The equipment is available to engineering students whenever they need it, ready to assist in the building of robots, drones, PCs and many other creations. Technical staff is always on hand to aid the students in operating the machines and giving shape to their ideas.
