The National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) has announced that the ongoing construction of the Katsina Engineering Institute is now 80% complete. The institute, designed to enhance Nigeria’s technological and industrial development, is expected to be a key center for engineering training and innovation.
According to NASENI, the facility will focus on equipping students and professionals with hands-on skills in various engineering fields, including robotics, automation, and manufacturing. The project aligns with the federal government’s agenda to boost local capacity in science and technology, reducing Nigeria’s dependence on imported engineering solutions.
NASENI officials assured that the institute would be fully operational soon, with state-of-the-art laboratories and training equipment. The agency also emphasized the potential economic benefits, including job creation and skills development for young Nigerians.
As construction nears completion, stakeholders are optimistic that the Katsina Engineering Institute will play a crucial role in advancing Nigeria’s industrial sector and bridging the gap between academic learning and practical engineering applications.
