The journey of empowering female engineers began with the establishment of the College of Engineering at Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University in 1439 AH, in realization of Saudi Vision 2030, which assigned women a central role in development and provided them with promising opportunities in engineering fields. Since its establishment, the College has pursued carefully planned expansion in its academic programs until the number of bachelor’s programs reached seven specialized programs, introduced progressively to meet labor market demands and keep pace with technological developments. The College also seeks to strengthen its academic journey through expanding graduate programs by launching specialized master’s programs in modern fields, representing the beginning of its advanced academic degrees. Furthermore, the College has placed significant emphasis on building effective professional partnerships with governmental, private, and non-profit sectors to bridge the gap between academic education and labor market requirements. This has been reflected in the success of its graduates and their recruitment into distinguished specialized positions. To ensure the quality of outcomes, the College supports its students in obtaining professional certifications, while also developing faculty competencies, linking them to practical applications, and supporting scientific research and academic publishing. The College reaffirms its commitment to continuous development so that its graduates remain a hallmark of excellence, creativity, and innovation in the labor market.
