Internships, Training & Scholarships

NU is committed in contributing to human resource development through innovation, research and technological advancements in order to serve the community. The interaction and linkage with industries and professional bodies extends to human intellectual reach and is a key to Oman’s competitiveness, innovation and economic development. To make engineering education holistic and more relevant to the societal and industry needs, the students from technical institutions need to be offered training in industries to give them first hand practical exposure in addition to the theoretical themes they receive at the college. The Placement and Training Centre (PTC) aims to facilitate the process of student migration from the institution to the industry and to continue individual’s education. The PTC plays an integral part in shaping the careers of the students of the NUE and Its approach to the placement & training includes, (a) exchange of ideas and experiences with industries for the continuous improvement of the learning and teaching process by industry visits and invited talks from industry experts (b) create a professional global network for faculty, students, graduates and experts from industry and commerce (c) Career guidance and placement (d) summer training and internship.
