CEE Participating in 7th FEA Student Conference

Participation in the 7th FEA Student Conference [May 21-22, 2008] by the CEE Department included the presentation of two keynote lectures and eight student papers published in the conference proceedings.

Keynote Lectures

[1] “Professional Life Journey of a Successful FEA Alumnus
By Mr. Taha A. Mikati (on behalf of CEE)
Founder and Chairman of M1 Group, Beirut, Lebanon
Invited to the Conference and presented with the Distinguished Alumnus Award  

Abstract: This is the story of a successful FEA alumnus which exemplifies that FEA graduates are problem solvers, life-long learners, leaders in their profession, able to excel in additional professions, contribute effectively to the societies in which they live and work, have civic responsibilities, and are dedicated to helping others.

[2] “Engineering … Vision, Leadership, Perseverance … Outstanding Success!
By Mr. Mohamed S. Moghrabi (on behalf of CEE)
Senior Director and Member of the Executive Committee, Tameer Holding ( Dubai)
Invited to the Conference and presented with the Distinguished Alumnus Award

Abstract: The objective and content of my talk would target to link the discipline of the Engineering ‘character formation‘with success … outstanding success … of the individual.

To achieve this objective, I will begin with a brief overview of my personal experience, starting from the day of graduation, through the various jobs I held and dozens of countries I experienced, leading up to this point in time. Thereafter, I will present how the three simple - and seemingly cliché - words in my subject line “Vision, Leadership, Perseveranceactually form the raw ingredients to achieving unlimited levels of success. I will finally close with advice to my colleagues who will graduate shortly, as well as some humble observations, comments and suggestions to my greater family … the AUB administration, senior faculty members and professors.
