HOW TO PROCESS IF UNIVERSITY IS NOT IN THE LIST OF MMUP -UPDA QATAR EXAM
By ranjithmeyana@gmail.com on January 28th, 2023 in Uncategorized“MMUP/UPDA, which stands for the Urban Planning and Development Authority in Qatar, operates under the Ministry of Municipality and Urban Planning (MMUP). Currently, it is named the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME). While obtaining MMUP/UPDA licenses was not mandatory in the past, recent changes now require all engineers, regardless of their experience background, to obtain these licenses. These licenses are essential for engineers with engineering visas to reside in Qatar, and compliance with the new standards proposed since November 2019 is crucial.
In an effort to enhance the quality of engineers in the country, the government of Qatar introduced the MMUP/UPDA system in 2014. It plays a vital role in ensuring that engineers meet the necessary qualifications and standards.
However, many engineers encounter difficulties when attempting to take the MMUP/UPDA exam, primarily because their university is not listed on the MME website. In response to this challenge, Future Point has established a dedicated Equivalency Process Department to assist engineers from unlisted universities. Our team of expert consultants is well-equipped to guide and support individuals in resolving these issues.
It’s important to note that the university equivalency procedure can take a minimum of 2 to 3 months, depending on effective communication between the university and the MME department. We understand the time sensitivity of these matters and are committed to helping engineers navigate this process efficiently.”
“Before applying for the UPDA Exam in Qatar, it’s essential to follow a specific process to obtain the required university equivalency certificate if your university is not listed on the MME website. Here are the steps to follow:
- Initial Application: Begin by uploading all the necessary documents on the MME (Ministry of Municipality and Environment) website, similar to candidates from listed universities. However, when prompted, select an alternative university name, as your university may not be listed.
- Application Rejection: Expect your application to be initially rejected due to the non-listed university. This is a standard part of the process.
- School Equivalency: After the rejection, visit the Higher Education website to apply for school equivalency. Ensure that your school certificates are properly attested. This step precedes university equivalency.
- University Equivalency: Subsequently, apply for university equivalency on the same website, providing the required additional documents. This process involves communication between your university and the Supreme Council to determine and issue the university equivalency certificate.
The specific documents required for university equivalency certificates will be outlined by the relevant authorities, and it’s crucial to ensure that all documentation is accurate and complete. Following these steps will help candidates from non-listed universities obtain the necessary equivalency to pursue the UPDA Exam in Qatar.”
