Most programs require a high college diploma with passing grades in at least 5 courses. One must be a Grade 12 English course, one Academic or Advanced Mathematics course, and two Science courses. A fifth course can be from a variety of language, arts, or other electives. A minimum average of 60% over all five courses is required to be admitted. All these credits must be obtained from a college that is approved by the State of Qatar.
The College of Engineering and Technology is the college of choice for applied engineering and technical education in the region and as a recognized college for excellence, practical applied research and innovation producing professionally, socially, and ethically responsible future community leaders.
Our hands-on, practical projects provide students with meaningful opportunities to discover their passion and build the skills to support it. The college of engineering provides many experiential learning opportunities through a capstone design projects, exposure to industry experience, interdisciplinary Projects, faculty-led researches, and through skills competition teams and clubs.

Our Vission
To be recognized for excellence and innovation in applied engineering and technology, contributing to a sustainable future in Qatar and globally.
Facts and Figures
Dr. Mohamed Meguid
Dean, College of Engineering and Technology
Welcome to the College of Engineering and Technology (CET) at the University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST).
Engineering and technology play a vital role in addressing the challenges of our time, from sustainable infrastructure and energy to advanced manufacturing and emerging technologies. At CET, our mission is to prepare engineers, engineering technologists, and technical professionals who combine sound scientific knowledge with practical skills, creativity, and a strong sense of professional responsibility.
Our commitment begins with our students. Through rigorous academic programs, hands-on laboratory experiences, workshops, design and capstone projects, and engagement with industry, we connect theory with practice. We strive to provide a supportive learning environment in which students develop critical thinking, teamwork, problem-solving skills, and the confidence to contribute effectively from the beginning of their careers.
Looking ahead, our priorities include strengthening academic quality and continuous improvement, advancing accreditation readiness, developing programs responsive to emerging needs, and expanding opportunities for applied research and innovation. We will continue to build meaningful partnerships with industry, government, and academic institutions to connect education and research with real-world challenges and deliver tangible benefits to society.
These ambitions support Qatar National Vision 2030 and UDST’s commitment to excellence in applied education, innovation, and sustainable development. Equally important is the culture we foster within the College: one grounded in collegiality, integrity, transparency, respect, and shared accountability. Our faculty, staff, and students are central to everything we do, and their contributions are essential to our success.
I invite prospective students, families, alumni, industry partners, and the wider community to explore the opportunities offered by CET and to join us in shaping a future through engineering and technology. I look forward to working together to strengthen our College and make a meaningful contribution to Qatar and beyond.
