Introduction to Energy Engineering Department:

Due to lots of opportunities and energy-related problems in Afghanistan, the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) established Energy Engineering Department in the framework of the Geology and Mine Engineering   Faculty of Ghazni Technical University in 2019. The students from all over the country are trained in this department. The curriculum of the department mainly focuses on the:

  • Solar Thermal Energy
  • Solar Photovoltaic
  • Wind Energy
  • Hydropower
  • ‌Biomass Energy
  • Thermal Power Plant
  • Combustion Technologies and Materials
  • Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution
  • Energy Conversion
  • Energy and Environment
  • Building Heating and Cooling
  • Electrical Systems of Buildings
  • Energy Efficiency

Currently, Energy Engineering has Four lecturers, the department plans to hire other eligible master lecturers also in the near future. Fortunately, the presences of a lot of energy recourses in Afghanistan make it possible for our graduates to have jobs and a leading role in the implementation of almost all energy related projects in the country. The graduates of this department are capable to eliminate almost every energy related problem. 

Vision:

Training skilled professionals in the field of energy who can meet the standards of the region at the country and offering them to the society for service.

Mission:

Approaching our vision by the help of new energy related technologies and effective educational and research methods.

Objectives:

  • Offering skilled engineers to the society equipped with Islamic and national values in the field of energy.
  •  Solving energy related difficulties of the society through conducting researches and offering services.
  •  Investigating best utilization of the available national energy resources for economy development of the country.

Values:

  • Accepted national and international quality.
  • Respect of Islamic and Afghan sanctities.
  • Islamic and human morality and moral of service and patriotism.
  • Transparency and prevention of corruption.

Head of the Department Message

Due to years of war and conflict in Afghanistan, all energy and other infrastructures are hugely damaged. By looking at today’s energy needs of our society, these energy infrastructures need fundamental work and technical human resources. On the other hand, we have lots of energy resources in the country. Based on these problems and opportunities, the Energy Engineering Department was established in the framework of the Geology and Mine Engineering Faculty of Ghazni Technical University to graduate talented engineers equipped with Islamic and national values in the field of energy for our society. With the help of our respected expert lecturers, the department struggles to be one of the leading energy engineering departments in the region. We hope that our graduates from all over the country will serve the people in the energy-related sectors to enhance the academic and economical situation of the country. On behalf of all Energy Engineering Department respected lecturers, I most welcome the students to this field of study.
