OGITECH Secures NBTE Approval to Launch National Diploma in Artificial Intelligence

The Ogun State Institute of Technology (OGITECH), Igbesa, has secured approval from the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) to commence a National Diploma (ND) programme in Artificial Intelligence.

The approval, contained in a letter recently released by the Executive Secretary of NBTE, Professor Idris M. Bugaje, followed a rigorous evaluation of the institution’s capacity to deliver a cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence curriculum.

The new programme is designed with a strong emphasis on practical, hands-on learning. Students will be exposed to key areas of modern technology, including advanced programming, digital systems, microcontrollers, state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence laboratory work and a comprehensive capstone project.

To ensure effective delivery of the programme, the NBTE’s final approval followed an extensive training and upskilling programme for OGITECH lecturers and technologists. The initiative was aimed at equipping the academic and technical staff with the knowledge and skills required to deliver the programme to international standards.

The milestone is a testament to the vision and commitment of the OGITECH Management team led by the Rector, Dr Abiodun Oluseye, whose emphasis on continuous staff development and resource provision has continued to position the institute at the forefront of modern technical education.

With modern facilities and trained faculty members prepared to develop the next generation of technology innovators, OGITECH has invited prospective students and members of the public to take advantage of the new programme.

Applications for the National Diploma in Artificial Intelligence are now officially open. Interested candidates can visit the OGITECH application portal at my.ogitech.edu.ng to complete their application.
