From the beginning of April 2022, the registration is open and aspiring STEM (Science, Technical, Engineering, and Mathematics) students. They can now register for taking part in ‘Seeds for the Future 2022, Bangladesh’ at free of cost by contacting their university departments.
Prof. Dr. Mohammad Shaifur Rahman, Head of Department of EEE, KUET said, “Students get wide range of training and technological orientation in the training sessions from Huawei. There are opportunities for them to get a detail overview of telecommunication networks, key technologies in ICT, 5G, Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing, etc. In addition to that, their leadership capabilities will be improved. In my opinion Seeds for the Future is doing a very good job to groom our students in the ICT sector. I thank Huawei for taking such initiatives.”
