In a step that reflects its orientation toward applied education and the enhancement of students’ skills, the Department of Telecommunications and Mobile Computing Engineering at the College of Engineering and Information Technology, in cooperation with the Iraqi Information and Communications Technology Association, organized a scientific visit to the Directorate of Communications and Informatics of Holy Karbala. The visit included first- and second-year students from the department.

During the visit, the students were introduced to the nature of the directorate’s work and its pivotal role in developing the infrastructure of the telecommunications sector and internet services. Detailed explanations were provided about the Fiber to the Home (FTTH) project, how it operates, and its importance in improving the quality of digital services provided to citizens. The students also learned about International Gateway (IGW) exchange systems and their role in efficiently transmitting mobile phone data within modern communication networks.

The visit also featured a specialized presentation delivered by a team from the Karbala Governorate Office – Decision Support Technology Department. The presentation included an overview of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), server operations, and advanced software applications, as well as highlighting the role of artificial intelligence technologies in supporting decision-making processes and improving government services.

This visit comes as part of the College of Engineering’s efforts to strengthen partnerships with government institutions, achieving integration between academic knowledge and practical application, and contributing to the preparation of young engineering cadres capable of keeping pace with digital transformations and labor market demands with confidence and competence.
