UNIZIK Engineering Students Grab Two Prizes In An International Design Contest Organized By The IEEE
Ten students from the department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, achieved remarkable success at the Africa-wide IEEE (for Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) IAS-IPCSD Engineering Design Contest 2024, a contest organized for undergraduate and graduate students of engineering across African universities. The aim of the contest is to encourage ingenuity among engineering students in solving problems unique to the continent.
Two teams from the department, comprising a total of ten students, secured positions in the top three, earning a combined prize of $4000 out of the $6000 awarded in the competition. The first team, Team Incredibles, comprising Egwuchika Tochukwu, Ogbuagu Chibueze, Samuel Gospel and Uzuke Victory, designed a prototype for an emergency/crisis management system in public roads. The second team, Team Titans, comprising Agbo Augustine, Onyebuchi Goodnews, Lekia Peace, Chidiebere Dominion, Udemgba Ferdinand, and Gabriel Onyedika Nnamoko, designed a waste-to-energy system for intelligent and sustainable waste management.
This achievement is a testament to the dedication and innovation fostered within the department, reflecting the university’s commitment to nurturing technical excellence.
The win underscores the quality of education at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, positioning the institution as a leader in producing skilled engineers capable of competing on a global stage.
This success not only enhances the university’s reputation but also serves as an inspiration for current and future students to pursue excellence in engineering and technology.
