Al-Ayen:A scientific field trip was organized by the Technical Engineering College at Al-Ayen Iraqi University to provide students with practical insights into the workings of electrical power generation plants. The initiative aimed to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and real-world practice.

According to Alayen Iraqi University, the field trip included visits to various operational units within the power generation plant. Students had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the plant’s management and operation mechanisms. They visited the Control and Monitoring Department, where engineers explained the department’s role in monitoring, operating, and tracking the plant’s operational processes.

During the visit, students also explored the Fuel Filtration and Purification Unit. Here, they observed how the computerized control unit and central systems are used to manage operational processes. The visit allowed students to engage in computer applications under the guidance of a specialist engineer. Additionally, the students learned about data exchange technologies during their visit to the Network and Data Transmission Unit, where they were introduced to the equipment used for data transmission within and outside the plant.

The field trip aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and Goal 4 (Quality Education). It aimed to enhance students’ technical knowledge, develop their practical skills, and introduce them to modern technologies that contribute to increasing the efficiency of energy production and improving its sustainability.
