General Education Program
Department of Basic Science & Humanities
Introduction
The department of Basic Science and Humanities is a multidisciplinary unit that serves freshman students from different faculties at AUM. The department fosters the General Education Program (GEP) at AUM, which is not a degree program. Students at AUM must complete a total of 40 credit hours from the university’s general education requirements courses to graduate from their academic programs. All students must take 23 credit hours from outside their major and the remaining 17 credit hours from either their major’s general education elective courses or other departments general elective courses. GEP broadens students’ knowledge, and technical skills, and promotes social awareness through general education and career- focused courses. It provides strong education and learning environment, which enables the students to enter all areas of their profession upon graduation and to adapt to changes that may occur during professional life. Students will be conversant with wide range of topics relating to the natural sciences, be able to communicate effectively, and appreciate the scientist's professional and social role. The faculty tries to foster a learning environment enhanced by faculty who encourage leadership, independence, self- respect, promotion of justice, and compassion in students. This is dependent on a sound scientific knowledge base, well-developed expertise, critical thinking capabilities, moral reasoning, and communication skills.
Vision
The General Educational Program (GEP) strives to provide a dynamic integration of the liberal arts & sciences and technology for personal and professional development consistent with the university’s vision. The faculty commits itself to utilize wisdom and science for a better world.
Mission
The General Educational Program (GEP) supplements students’ professional respective fields to enhance their inquiry and acquisition knowledge in multidisciplinary areas. GEP compliments university mission by helping students to move forward with a collaborative initiative to achieve excellence and promotes knowledge in rewarding and inspiring learning and research environment to develop leadership qualities relevant to the 21st century and beyond.
The American University of Madaba graduates will have the following Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs):

Civil Engineering is the driving force behind the infrastructural design, development, and operation of our communities as we know them. Through the Civil Engineering program at AUM, students will be walked through the four major aspects of this invaluable science: structure, environment, Geotechnics, and transportation. In our state-of-the-art labs, they will learn to utilize modern engineering technology to design and conduct experiments, as well accurately analyze gathered data to reach productive conclusions. By earning a degree in Civil Engineering from AUM, students open themselves up to career opportunities in domestic and commercial design and supervision, urban traffic planning, pavement design, environmental risk management, water and waterway treatment plans, project management, and more. Our graduates are forward-thinking and adaptable individuals who are able to work within economic, social, political, and environmental constrains. This, along with a deep awareness of the professional and ethical responsibility they shoulder, is what makes AUM Civil Engineering graduates stand out to future competent employers.
The Civil Engineering department at AUM ranks number 1 on a national scale, a standing which is reflected in the accomplishments of our students. For example, Civil Engineering student Marwan Abusakha won the Hultz Prize on a regional level and went on to compete in the final round of the prize in the UK. Other students have gone on to complete their studies abroad, such as Jumana Husary, who was granted a full scholarship by the Japanese government and went on to study at Kyushu University in Japan.

One of the oldest disciplines in the engineering field, Mechanical Engineering acts as one of the most crucial pillars of modern society. Through the Mechanical Engineering program at AUM, students will prepare themselves to contribute positively to this field and ultimately better the quality of life for local, regional, and global communities. By first acquiring a broad-based foundational education of sciences and mathematics, they will be able to gear their imaginations in the direction of innovative and practical design. A strong creative muscle is sometimes the most important quality of a successful mechanical engineer, and the learning environment at AUM supports and nurtures this. With guidance from their qualified instructors, students will learn to hone in their creativity and pair it with applicable and high-quality skills in order to design and develop ground-breaking solution to contemporary problems. A Mechanical Engineering degree from AUM gives way to various career opportunities in exciting fields such as aerospace, the automotive industry, nuclear engineering, and more.
The Mechanical Engineering department at AUM is actively participating in the Technical Committee, Accreditation Unit, Jordan Accreditation System, as well as in the Technical Assessments and Technical Audits, Jordan Accreditation System. It has also previously participated in a number of specialized conferences in Thailand, Austria, Germany and Spain, and holds membership in a number of organizing committees for scientific conferences and the National Technology Parades, and is on the technical committee of the National/Arab Robotics competition. Our graduates have gone on to pursue their MSc abroad, take up internships in multinational corporations such as Airbus, won awards, and have completed a research project that was funded by the King Abdullah II Fund for Development (KAFD) and Scientific Research Department/King Abdullah II Design & Development Bureau (KADDB).
