On 02.26.2017 a lecture was presented by Assist. Prof. Dr. Farhad Mohamed Osman the scientific associate of the Department of Materials Engineering titled:
Review of Rapid Prototype Manufacturing
Which focused on the use of process rapid modeling for the manufacture of prototypes or finished products or the number or templates for polymeric, metallic and ceramic, and techniques where described according to input of the manufacturing process whether the material is a liquid or solid or in the form of powder. This will lead to overcome many of the difficulties associated with the production of the usual means. The lecture was presented in the graduate department hall in the presence of some of the professors of the department and graduate students

On 03.05.2017 held a Department of Materials Engineering held a volunteer campaign work for students of all academic levels included cleaning and beautifying department including laboratories and external and internal courtyards and classrooms

At 12/03/2017 and as a part of scientific activities schedule which prepared by materials engineering department, a scientific lecture was held under the title:
Computer applications in materials engineering
Which speech by Assis. Prof. Dr. Abbass K. Hussien the head of general materials engineering branch which involved the computer software to calculate the input materials in metal, ceramic and composite materials and calculate the mechanical properties like (hardness, tension and creep) and compare it with experimental work with an error less than 4%, an input numbers value to select the optimum condition.
A head of this scientific meeting was done by Assis. Prof. Dr. Farhad M. Othman; dean scientific assistance and with member of Assis. Prof. Dr. Laith Q. Abbass; daen management assistance and Assis. Prof. Dr. Aseel B. Abdulhussien; head of Committee on Conferences in department, also some academic staff and graduate students were attendance on Prof Dr. Fadhil A. Jeaad Hall
