On Saturday, November 14, 2026, third- and fourth-stage students from the Department of Civil Engineering at Nawroz University conducted a scientific field trip to the ongoing construction site of the new Duhok–Baadre highway. The visit was organized as part of the Highway Engineering course under the supervision of the course lecturer, Dr. Abdullah Mahmood Rashed.
During the site visit, students observed active road construction operations, heavy machinery, earthworks, and pavement layering stages firsthand, while adhering to full on-site safety protocols. In Highway Engineering, students study the fundamental principles of geometric road design, soil compaction, pavement materials, drainage systems, and traffic safety standards.
Experiencing a major active infrastructure project allowed the students to directly connect theoretical classroom lectures with real-world engineering execution, gaining practical insights into project management, quality control, and field challenges.
