Hooded garden chairs on display at UB show

The Faculty of Engineering and Technology (FET) is holding a weeklong exhibition at the National Museum this week as part of the University of Botswana's 25th anniversary celebrations.

"We in the FET believe that we must connect science and technology with ordinary people; that is the reason for this exhibition," explained an organiser, Zoran Markovic, a lecturer in FET's Department of Industrial Design and Technology.
