The Architecture Department at Mu'tah University participated in the Seventh International Jordanian Architectural Conference. This participation falls within the framework of external engagements aimed at enriching students' knowledge, supporting their expertise, and involving them in national and university-level events and societal institutions. The conference was organized by the Jordan Engineers Association/Architectural Engineering Branch under the patronage of Prime Minister Dr. Bishr Al-Khasawneh, under the theme "Architecture and Artificial Intelligence (ARCH-AI)".

Representing the department were faculty members: Dr. Lara Shawawreh, the department chair, Dr. Jinan Abu Qadurah, and Dr. Yumna Aldmour. Several students from the third and fourth years also participated actively, contributing through attendance, organization, or participation in the student exhibition. The conference discussed the importance of artificial intelligence as a new knowledge that will shape the future and emphasized the necessity to incorporate it into various aspects of architectural engineering. This was achieved through diverse sessions moderated and discussed by architects and academics from across the nation. Ideas, perspectives, practical, and scientific experiences were exchanged.

The student exhibition accompanying the conference showcased projects for the reconstruction of Gaza using artificial intelligence, designed by architecture students from Jordanian universities.

We extend our gratitude to the College of Engineering, represented by the dean, and to the Architecture Department, represented by all faculty members, for this unique opportunity that allowed us to engage with the architectural community while still students. We also thank the Architectural Branch of the Jordan Engineers Association, represented by the branch president, Engineer Imad Dabbas, for their efforts in integrating students into the activities of the Engineers Association.
