The project "Mechanical Engineering Germany - Iraq" (MEGI)

The focus of the project is capacity building for laboratory technicians, lecturers, young academics, and professors of the Iraqi partner universities. Especially practical training and short courses on software training are important parts in capacity building due to the lack of modern experimental and analytical equipment at the partner universities.

The project started in September 2009 as a cooperation between TU Bergakademie Freiberg/Germany and the Iraqi universities: University of Technology Baghdad, Salahaddin University-Erbil, Diyala University and University of Sulaimani.

In 2018 our partner universities  in scope of the MEGI project: Salahaddin University-Erbil, University of Technology Baghdad, Erbil Polytechnic University, University of Diyala, Koya University, Kirkuk University, Dohuk University, Ishik University, and Cihan University.
