To equip students with skills needed in the rapidly evolving job
market, the Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH), is set to integrate
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics in its academic curriculum.
The institution has also put in place plans to replace the
computer science course with AI, robotics, and other skills related courses.
According to the Rector, Dr Ibraheem Abdul, incorporating cutting-edge technologies
in the curriculum would prepare the students for the 21st century global
market.
He said: “The AI and robotics hub will serve as a dedicated space
for cutting-edge research and development in artificial intelligence and
robotics technologies. Faculty, students, and industry professionals can
collaborate on projects that push the boundaries of innovation. Artificial
Intelligence and other skills related courses will be replacing the computer
science course from next session.”
This move, according to the rector, will position YABATECH at the
forefront of educational innovation, and prepare students for the challenges
and opportunities of the ever-evolving digital era.
