Call for Research/Project Synopsis and Poster Presentations

NBTE Applied Interdisciplinary Engineering and Technology Conference

We are excited to announce the NBTE Applied Interdisciplinary Engineering and Technology Conference, a platform for showcasing innovative solutions and interdisciplinary research across engineering, technology, and education. This conference aims to bring together thought leaders to address Nigeria’s most pressing challenges through practical, scalable projects and research that drive job creation, improve infrastructure, and accelerate technological advancement.

Call for Applied Interdisciplinary Engineering and Technology Research/Project Presentations

We invite you to submit applied research/project synopses and poster presentations on open-source Linux-based technologies and interdisciplinary engineering solutions. All presented work must use open-source tools and be based on the Linux operating system, ensuring that technologies are readily available for adoption and implementation.

We are particularly interested in applied research or projects that are:

• Applied and action-oriented, focusing on solving real-world challenges in developing countries.
• Job-creating, offering opportunities in fields such as technology, education, energy, and transportation.
• Based on empirical or simulation models that are reproducible and scalable.

This is a unique opportunity to present your innovative work, receive valuable feedback, and collaborate with experts and peers from around the world.
