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.

The exhibition began with a public lecture on design at the Centre for Continuing Education's lecture hall at UB on Tuesday. "We want to introduce ourselves as widely as possible so that parents can see for themselves what their children can do," Markovic said.  Through the inventions made by the students, he explained, UB is committed to producing a generation of world-class architects, designers and engineers.
