The National Institute of Construction Technology and Management (NICTM), Uromi) recently
hosted an impactful engineering workshop titled “Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Automation:
Bridging Electrical, Computer and Mechatronics Engineering for the Future Industry.”
The workshop was organized by Mr. Andrew Ibhagbemien, Lecturer in the Engineering Department, in
collaboration with the Initiative for Bright Minds and Knowledge Propagation (IBMKP Global
Foundation). The event brought together students from Electrical, Computer, and Mechatronics
Engineering for an engaging and forward-looking academic experience.
The session was facilitated by Mr. Ihonosetale Oseghale, an Advanced Industrial Engineering Research
Master’s student in Germany and a practicing Software Engineer. Drawing from his interdisciplinary
background in mechanical engineering, industrial systems, robotics, system Automation and software
development, he delivered a comprehensive presentation on how robotics, artificial intelligence, and
automation are transforming modern industries.
During the workshop, students were exposed to:
● The integration of mechanical, electrical, and software systems in robotics
● The practical role of Artificial Intelligence in engineering applications
● Automation and smart manufacturing concepts (Industry 4.0)
● Essential skills students should begin developing for future career opportunities
The interactive question-and-answer session allowed students to actively engage with the speaker,
deepening their understanding of emerging technologies and global engineering trends.
This initiative reflects NICTM’s commitment to equipping students with industry-relevant knowledge and
preparing them to compete in an increasingly technology-driven world. The workshop not only
strengthened interdisciplinary awareness among students but also inspired them to pursue innovation and
continuous learning in robotics, AI, and automation.
NICTM remains dedicated to creating platforms that connect classroom knowledge with real-world
applications and global best practices
