The Faculty of Technology was established in 2018, to cater to the increasing demands of technology education at undergraduate level created in the country especially due to the newly formed “Technology Stream” via local and international Advanced Level curricula. The faculty plans to be an internationally recognized centre of excellence aligning with the changing technological needs in society through teaching, research and knowledge sharing. The students will be exposed to advanced technologies in Bio systems Engineering and Engineering Technologies and assisted to become technology professionals and innovators through multi and inter-disciplinary training and research exposure.
