This program aimed to equip scholars and staff, primarily from the engineering, environmental science, and IT departments, with essential tools and information in these fields.

The delegates were warmly welcomed by the management staff of GUU and treated to a memorable opening ceremony.

In her address, Vice-Chancellor Prof. Cele Njoku emphasized that this event is an excellent opportunity to learn and gain firsthand knowledge on the subject, enabling participants to explore the many possibilities within the area of remote sensing data from space.

 

She expressed her pleasure in hosting the delegation and noted that this event would further strengthen the already established relationship between the institutions. Prof. Njoku assured that this collaboration would yield fruitful results.

She encouraged all participants to make the most of this opportunity, to learn as much as possible for both personal growth and to benefit their loved ones and the university community.
