📋 About the Department
The department was established in 1987-1988 by Dr. Tahseen Ali Hussein. It has been headed by several highly qualified professors, both academically and administratively, and began with two branches (Automotive and Refrigeration). Currently, it is headed by Lecturer Ahmed Hassan Tawfiq. In 1993, the Automotive branch was transferred to the Kufa Technical Institute, which was part of the state-owned austerity program (during the economic insurance period). The department focuses on student participation and training, equipping them with the practical, technical, and professional skills to work with various devices, systems, and refrigeration equipment. Applications in these areas include industrial, medical, automotive, and domestic systems, encompassing design, installation, routine maintenance, troubleshooting, and maintenance. The department boasts a team of experienced, highly qualified, and renowned professors. Hundreds of students have graduated from the department, some of whom have pursued postgraduate studies and established themselves in scientific and administrative positions within the university. The department, with its faculty, staff, and students, has contributed to the maintenance and repair of equipment and advanced systems for numerous office coolers and refrigeration units, providing consultations to holy shrines such as the Holy Shrine, Al-Hanana Mosque, and the Great Mosque of Kufa.
