In line with the vision of the Computer Science Department and under the guidance of the department head, Professor Dr. Alaa Kadhim Farhan, regarding graduating qualified and competent cadres in the field of computer science and sustainable development to serve the community and labor market through continuous development of theoretical and practical lecture content, the department has commenced, for the first time since the start of the current academic year 2023-2024, the training of third-year students under the supervision of Dr. Ali Adel Saeed on building Iraq's digital map with its geographical layers using the ArcMap 10.8 system, the latest version. This training is part of the requirements for the Geographic Information Systems course and focuses on the practical aspect.

The Computer Science Department basketball team emerged victorious against the Biomedical Engineering Department team in the University of Technology basketball championship. The competition was overseen by the Student Activities Officer, Professor Hussein Abdul Redha, and took place on the university's court. In another match, the Computer Science Department team also defeated the Mechanical Engineering Department team.

Abdul Qudoos Hameed Musleh and Murtadha Jasim Hussein, students from the Computer Science Department, Multimedia branch, secured second place in the 2024 Grand Challenge Competition at the national level across Iraqi universities in the Information Technology category. This competition was hosted by the Student Activities Department of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research. The Grand Challenge is a national competition open to both public and private universities and colleges, based on teamwork, and includes five categories. The University of Technology participated in the Information Technology category. The University of Mosul won the first place, the University of Technology secured the second place, and Al-Rafidain University College also shared the second place, while Heritage University achieved the third place.

Under the sponsorship of the President of the University of Technology, Professor Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Hassan Al-Ghabban, and supervised by the Head of the Computer Science Department, Professor Dr. Alaa Kazem Farhan, the Computer Science Department organized a workshop titled "Program Accreditation Standards for Quality Assurance and Continuous Improvement in Education." The workshop was conducted by Professor Dr. Jalal Mohammed Jalil from the Electromechanical Engineering Department in the Dr. Abbas Fadel Abdul Qadir Hall on Thursday, 2024/4/4, with the attendance of faculty and students of the department. The workshop provided an explanation of engineering program accreditation and introduced the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) as a non-governmental organization that accredits learning programs in applied sciences, computing, engineering, and technology. This accreditation primarily occurs in the United States but also globally. Program accreditation involves the agency accrediting a training program after verifying the program accreditation standards and utilizing all administrative and educational capabilities for training purposes, as in postgraduate programs. The lecturer noted that there are 500 engineering departments in Iraq, 300 of which have been audited and found not to meet the requirements. The success of this program fundamentally relies on the faculty themselves, teamwork, and the necessity of having a departmental expert council, possibly consisting of five individuals, meeting at least once a year. One of the challenges facing the program is the educator's toolkit; what is delivered from it significantly impacts the department. In conclusion, the department head, Professor Dr. Alaa Kazem Farhan, awarded a certificate of appreciation to the lecturer, acknowledging his efforts.
