Introduction

The upheaval and elevation of humanity as a species have always been a collaborative effort. We all innately share a love for discovery and innovation, an intrinsic curiosity drives all of us forward toward prosperity and success. One of the necessary elements that have aided humanity along its evolutionary journey, is an immense diversity of thoughts and interests. We can aid each other in multiple disciplines and sciences, simultaneously advancing mankind as a whole.

Engineering aims to practically implement scientific advancement in forms that prove useful for all mankind. Engineering doctrines span various fields, all of which enrich our lives, and enhance our livability and well-being. Mechanical engineering is well regarded to be one of the oldest engineering disciplines, facilitating movement, fluidity, and motion. In the modern age, mechanical engineering harmonizes with several other disciplines such as electronics, aviation, and computation, to produce precise robotics, advanced flight mechanisms, and adaptive control of machinery.  On the other hand, aviation is easily regarded as a miracle of scientific progress and has successfully achieved humanity’s most historical and aspirational ambition. The miracle of flight is accessible to all in the modern age thanks to engineering advancements that make it the safest method of travel to date. The study of aviation and aerodynamics aims to further refine the process of flight, and elevate it to a seamless, efficient, and quicker way of travel.

Engineering disciplines have historically worked in tandem, furthering one another, and enriching the lives of human beings around the globe. Perhaps one of the most evident fields in this regard is Materials Engineering and Fabrication. They constitute the base element upon which other disciplines can build, catering to specific needs. From microchips, PCBs, and CPUs, to vehicle chassis, rudimentary tools, and basic infrastructure, materials engineering and fabrication bring abstract thoughts, designs, and models into existence, that may be utilized by practitioners and laymen alike. Contemporarily, technological discovery has advanced the field of materials engineering, producing novel imaging methods that allow us to analyze the constituents of our surrounding elements. Current implementations include a focus on renewable energy utilization for the betterment of the environment, as well as waste management and optimization. Regarding Fabrication, technology has produced methods of additive manufacturing and 3-D printing that allow for a more sustainable approach to production, while easing machining efforts, and allowing for elaborate designs.

Contemporary architecture and urban planning act as a hub that houses all modern innovation. Modern construction currently incorporates a multitude of elements that accommodate its inhabitants, going beyond just ensuring their safety and protection. Contemporary architecture secures the safety of its inhabitants and enriches their experience by integrating elements such as artistic expression, natural lighting, biomimetic approaches, interconnectivity, readiness, availability of health equipment, and advanced emergency systems. Advanced techniques in urban planning share the same vision, aiming to elevate the experience of cities’ inhabitants by introducing sustainable development methodologies that prioritize the pedestrian, integrate greenery into the city streets, and shift away from asphalt-ridden topologies and an oversaturation of vehicles.

Here at IEREK, we pride ourselves in our mission of knowledge enrichment, and propagation, as well as empowering academics across the globe. Thus, we are thrilled to announce the first international conference on “Environmental Design, Material Science, and Engineering Technologies” In collaboration with Abu Dhabi University, where contemporary advancements in engineering disciplines, materials, and fabrication will be comprehensively discussed and explored.

Your Trip To Dubai

The United Arab Emirates is a federation made up of seven emirates located in the Arabian Peninsula's southeast: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al-Quwain, Fujairah, and Ras Al Khaimah. Since its inception in 1971, the UAE now boasts the Middle East’s third-largest economy, boasting an impressive GDP of $415 billion. Accordingly, the federation developed modern infrastructure and now houses everything from architectural masterpieces, to sky-rise buildings, museums, and other touristic attractions. As well as having stunning beaches and great weather all year round. As a matter of fact, Dubai became the world's second-most visited city right after Paris, France in 2022.

With a rich and vibrant history, the UAE has everything from archaeological sites to luxury hotels, stunning mosques, and shopping malls. There are plenty of places to go in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Center

Named after the late UAE founding father and president, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the architectural masterpiece is one of the largest mosques in the federation and is the third-largest mosque in the world. The mosque is covered with marbled halls filled with breathtaking gold accents. Made by architects the world over, the mosque accommodates up to 50,000 worshippers each day and is open to visitors from Saturday to Thursday from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM.

Louver Abu Dhabi Museum

            Located on Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi, the Louver Abu Dhabi Museum was born in 2007, out of a cultural collaboration between France and the UAE. The collaborative effort brings both the UAE’s definite and long-term goals for creating cultural dialogue, exchange, and progress with France’s knowledge and ingenuity in the world of art and museums. In fact, the eye-catching dome exterior was designed by French architect Jean Nouvel and blends both Arabic heritage with French architectural design. The louver Abu Dhabi aims to be a universal museum in the Arab world, showcasing stories of human creativity and ingenuity from different cultures, civilizations, and time periods. Accordingly, galleries are not geographically separated but instead arranged in chronological order, connecting and blending the cultures of the past with the present day. The aim is for the visitors to harbor respect and curiosity towards other cultures and encourage learning as well as open-mindedness.
