Seventy-Five Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) students from the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Qatar University College of Engineering (QU-CENG) participated in a workshop on road safety issues in Qatar.
The event is part of a senior level course on Project Engineering partially supported by QU Qatar Transportation and Traffic Safety Center.
The students were divided into 15 groups. Every student provided a presentation on road safety issues in Qatar. Highlighted topics focused on driver’s behaviour in terms of the use of seatbelts, mobile phone texting while driving, and use of car seat for newborns and children.
CENG Dean and QTTSC Director Dr Khalifa Al Khalifa said: “The event comes in line with CENG commitment to engage students on the importance of road and traffic safety in Qatar."
