The Department of Humanities was
established at the beginning of the
academic year 2009-2010 to teach the
provided courses according to Al-Balqa'
Applied University outline plan.
The Department of Humanities is one
of the eight departments under the
Faculty of Engineering
Technology.
From the beginning of our existence,
we are here to offer service basic
courses such as Islamic Education,
Arabic Language, English Language,
National Education, Physical
Education, Psychology, Education and
Management Concepts to all the
students of the Faculty
as well as Military Sciences.
Today’s engineers and scientists
need a background in the humanities
and social sciences in order to make
well-reasoned decisions involving
human values implicit in
technological options, to understand
the ways human beings see themselves
and the natural and social worlds,
and to communicate effectively.
Conversely, today’s humanists and
social scientists need to be fluent
in the natural sciences and
engineering disciplines if they are
to engage in the type of
constructive dialogue essential to a
well-informed and democratic
society.
The mission of the Department of
Humanities is to provide students
with an integrated education that
will give them a wide breadth of
knowledge and perspective.
Our department currently employs
twenty- nine full-timers, seventeen
of which hold Ph.D degrees from
various backgrounds and twelve MA
holders. While continuing in our
service to other faculties, we also
make efforts for continuous
improvement and enlargement as an
independent department in these
fields of science. |
