U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

Teaching methods are often divided into two broad categories in the dept: teacher-centered methods (also called direct instruction) & learner-centered methods (also called indirect instruction or inquiry-based learning). From among these methods, the Dept of Chemistry employs most active learning methods to achieve objectives, course's ILOs or course-related competencies. This supports concentration & deepens learning towards higher-level skills like critical thinking. Many instructional methods have been selected to int the classroom, e.g. case studies, discussions, written exercises...etc.

The Civil Engineering Department adopts the interactive face-to-face teaching method for theoretical and practical courses. In the theoretical courses, the fundamental concepts of engineering analysis and design are explained in detail through interactive sessions. Learning is motivated through the requirement of solving assignments, submitting term projects, and being assessed through written exams. Practical topics are taught in contemporary laboratories that include experimental setup to provide an extraordinary practical experience with modern engineering testing equipment.
