RIYADH – Dar Al Riyadh Consulting – a pioneering engineering and construction company with five decades of industry leadership – recently welcomed into its premises a delegation of engineering postgraduate students from the US-based Columbia University’s Global Leaders in Construction Management Program (GLCMP) as part of the company’s support for education and skills development.

This strategic collaboration provided international postgraduate students with an unprecedented opportunity to gain first-hand insights into new engineering technologies and learn from best practice project implementation methodologies adopted by Dar Al Riyadh. The senior engineering management of Dar Al Riyadh shared technical capabilities, fifty years of progressive project management and technology solutions with the delegation.

The delegation visited Dar Al Riyadh’s sophisticated technological infrastructure, and were introduced to how modern engineering solutions make mega-project execution possible. Students learned immensely about innovation, project and technology management at the company.

The GLCMP is an exclusive Columbia University program, which will equip future construction industry leaders with global exposure and real-world experience and is right in line with Dar Al Riyadh’s commitment to career development and industry innovation.

This collaborative initiative underscores Dar Al Riyadh's ongoing commitment to industry leadership, knowledge sharing, and supporting international educational initiatives in engineering and construction management. The company's approach aligns seamlessly with the broader national vision, as exemplified by Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Bandar Alkhorayef's recent engagement with Columbia University, which demonstrates Saudi Arabia's strategic commitment to global academic exchange and developing world-class talent.
