Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Erudite Future Skills and Technology Academy, Enugu, to provide practical training in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics and 3D technologies for students and staff.

The agreement, which brings together ESUT’s Department of Computer Science and the academy, provides for student internships, staff professional development and joint research aimed at bridging the gap between academic knowledge and industry requirements.

Through the collaboration, students will gain hands-on experience in emerging technologies, while staff will have opportunities to update their technical skills and participate in knowledge exchange programmes.

The signing ceremony was coordinated by the Dean of ESUT’s Faculty of Applied Physical Sciences, Prof. Gabriel Zeruwa Ugwu, while the academy’s delegation was led by its Provost, Prof. Michael Edeh.

The partnership also provides a framework for both institutions to translate research into practical solutions, giving participants opportunities to apply their knowledge to problems encountered beyond the classroom.

Located in Emene, Enugu, Erudite Future Skills and Technology Academy focuses on practical technology education and professional capacity development.

The collaboration is expected to strengthen links between university education and industry practice, while preparing participants for employment and innovation in the digital economy.
