It’s often said that a journey of thousand miles begin with a single step. Indeed, today the entire 6th International Engineering Conference (IEC-2020) committees’ members are taking time out to reflect and celebrate a journey of commitment to professionalism and dedication to pursuit of excellence. Our journey finally culminated into an unprecedented success with the final publication of the conference proceedings (on 23-06-2020) into the one of the largest and most prestigious digital libraries in academic word, IEEE Xplore. We wholeheartedly congratulate everyone who’s involved in this sojourn, from the organizers, partners, sponsors down to the authors who made valuable academic contributions.
The IEC 2020 conference was organized by Faculty of Engineering of Tishk International University and Erbil Polytechnic in collaboration with technical partners, IEEE and IEEE Iraq Section and was held in February 26-27, 2020. The conference main objective is creating a formidable flatform for disseminating research findings that enables scholars present their ideas to the world, debate and exchange those ideas with their counterparts on the developments in emerging fields and research frontiers in engineering.
IEC2020 successes from the conception, organization and hosting, shows what a teamwork of highly experienced professionals can achieve in a space of time. It also portrays the unrelenting effort of Tishk university to propel and project academic excellence to a world class level and find its rightful place among the top-notch universities around the globe. This will undoubtedly, not only benefit the university but also the entire Kurdistan region and its people by putting them on the map for their academic excellence and achievements. We wish to encourage and solicit for your support by participating actively in our next conference so as to rip the benefits that come with such an international event.
On behalf of everyone at the IEC-2020, I wish to express my deepest thanks and appreciations to the dean of faculty of engineering for his invaluable supports and encouragement, the heads of civil and computer engineering for their passions and rallying around to see our success. I equally want to appreciate and recognize the moral, logistic and financial supports we received from the Tish University and our other partners. We thank you very much and we hope that we can all work together once again in the future to achieve greater goals.
