The Faculty of Engineering (FIUBA) is one of the thirteen functional units that divides the University of Buenos Aires. Dictate in her grade 11 races and numerous postgraduate courses. While it works with the current name since 1952, it was part of the Faculty of exact and natural sciences since the 19TH century. The first Argentine engineer was Luis. A. Huergo, who obtained his diploma on June 6, 1870.

Clayton, 20 kilometres south-east of Melbourne, is the original campus of Monash University. It was established in 1958 and first opened its doors to 363 students in 1961. The 100 hectares of open field was originally used for a variety of purposes including the Talbot Epileptic Colony, before being bought for the university. The early days of the campus saw fields of mud and the library housed in a disused Volkswagen factory. In just over 50 years, the campus has grown in both size and student population and is now the largest of Monash's eight campuses.

From the SAOTA website "The New Engineering Building creates a new focus to the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment within the historic Upper Campus of UCT. The elevations appear as tectonic plates in response to the visual texture of Table Mountain. Large openings visually connect the mountain to a variety of learning and research spaces, including the Faculty garden."

Grade ll listed.
Sir Frederick Thorpe Mappin, 1st Baronet, of Thornbury (1821-1910) was Liberal MP for Hallamshire 1885-1906 and benefactor of the Mappin Art Gallery. He also owned the Sheaf Works (Thomas Turton & Sons) on the Sheffield & Tinsley Canal.

Sir Frederick Mappin Building
The Sir Frederick Mappin Building, or more familiarly, the Mappin Building, is a grade II-listed buildin fronting onto Mappin Street, Sheffield, England, named after Sir Frederick Mappin (1821–1910), the so-called Father of Sheffield University. The street was formerly Charlotte Street.
The building is owned by the University of Sheffield, is in an area known as the St George's Complex (after the St George's Church building, also owned by the University), and houses much of the Faculty of Engineering. Departments based there are Mechanical Engineering, Civil and Structural Engineering, Electronic and Electrical Engineering and the division Aerospace Engineering. The building also houses St George's IT centre, an open access computer centre available to all university students during office hours. To the rear of the building is the Sir Robert Hadfield Building, home to two other departments: Chemical and Biological Engineering, and Materials Science and Engineering. A separate building, the Amy Johnson Building is home to the Dept of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering.
The oldest part of the building is the former Technical School, the earliest purpose-built building for what is now the University of Sheffield. Designed by Flockton & Gibbs and completed in 1886, it now lies in the centre of the building. The extensive Mappin Street frontage was also designed by Flockton & Gibbs, in a far more demonstrative style.[1] Work began on it in 1902 with the demolition of the former Grammar School on the site, but progressed in three phases and was finally completed in 1913. This part of the building includes the main entrance, the John Carr Library and Mappin Hall, a large panelled room with stained glass windows and decorative plaster ceiling, used for various events. It is connected to the Technical School by a bridge. Part of the northern range along Broad Lane and a building behind the Technical School followed, then the connecting Engineering Building along Broad Lane, completed in 1955. This gradual accretion has produced a complex plan and floor numbering scheme: the main entrance is on floor D, with floors A,B, C and C* existing at lower levels in various areas of the building, and floors E, F and G lying above.

Professor Richard Dawe teaches his class in the Petroleum Studies programme at the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago.
Two Petroleum Studies programmes at The University of the West Indies (UWI) have recently earned accreditation from the Energy Institute (EI). This is in addition to previously earned accreditation by the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) and the Geological Society of London (GSL) respectively.
The University’s Master of Science (MSc) in Petroleum Engineering and Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Petroleum Geoscience were awarded accreditation by the UK-based Energy Institute (EI).
