@ucu_ComputEng @UCUniversity @Prof_Kitayimbwa @UcuLibrary @theucuguild @nbstv Can u do this Wln u did foundation

The wait is over! Applications for Mechatronics & Robotics Engineering at @UCUniversity are now open for the September Intake. Principle passes in Math and Physics required Apply online today: application.ucu.ac.ug Mechatronics & Robotics Engineering is where Mechanical, Electrical & Electronics, Robotics, Computer & Software Engineering, and AI converge to shape the future. From autonomous systems to smart manufacturing, this is the discipline transforming innovation into reality.

Recess students doing workshop practice kicked off the 3D Modeling module today with essential software installation and workflow setup. Guided by instructor Gideon Rutaraka, they’re building foundational skills for digital design and prototyping. Learn more: cse-ucu.com

Students from Electronics & Communication and Mechatronics & Robotics Engineering have begun their practical training at @UIRI_UG Namanve. Gaining direct experience with advanced electrical/electronic training equipment and industrial engineering environments. Explore our programmes: cse-ucu.com

What makes a game unforgettable? The Game Engineering & AR chapter broke it down during yesterday's @ucu_csea activities! From gameplay mechanics to immersive design, we're exploring the art and science of game development.

AI on campus, done right. Bethany Jepchumba took the stage to introduce Nexus a campus AI system designed to support learning, communication, and student productivity. By streamlining access to information, simplifying daily academic tasks, and enhancing the digital learning experience, Nexus shows how AI can truly serve education. This isn’t just about smart tech, it’s about smarter learning.

Imani Mathias Yovani took the stage to introduce File Flow, an intelligent desktop agent that organizes your files, automates workflows and learns your habits while keeping you firmly in control. This is personal computing done right: AI that adapts to your workflow, handles the repetitive tasks, and frees you up to focus on what actually matters. The future of productivity isn’t about replacing the user, it’s about empowering them.

Our second speaker Emily Musimiire introduced Phalanx a system designed to enhance safety and privacy without crossing ethical lines. In a world full of cyber threats, Phalanx shows us how to monitor networks responsibly, secure systems proactively, and protect data lawfully. This isn't about hacking, it's about defense. Ethical cybersecurity is the future, and Phalanx is leading the charge.

The first speaker, Henk Boelman, took the stage at AgentCon Mukono to unpack the evolution of Artificial Intelligence and its real-world impact today. From automation and problem-solving to data analysis and intelligent systems, Henk walked us through what AI can actually do across industries. But the real conversation? It's about the shift from copilots to fully agentic systems and why humans aren't being replaced, we're being amplified.

AgentCon Mukono is LIVE! Students & devs are settling in for the AI Agents World Tour. Today: deep-dive talks, hands-on workshops, live demos & real networking.

Workshop practice hardware week concludes with a library session on hardware visualization. Students translated practical system diagnostics into structured research, reinforcing technical literacy and documentation standards. Learn more: cse-ucu.com

Today’s workshop practice lab focused on operating system configuration, peer-to-peer networking, and remote diagnostics. Students are building foundational IT support competencies through structured, hands-on practice. Explore our programmes: cse-ucu.com

To God be the Glory! 🙏 Congratulations to UCU Team “Tech Sync” for emerging as winners of the AIFEST Hackathon hosted at the American Center, Kampala. 🏆🎉 Want to be part of the winning team? Septemmber intake Applications for BSc Computer Science, BSc Data Science and Analytics are now open. Apply online, application.ucu.ac.ug or WhatsApp us on +256 749552062. Tech Sync, a team of Computer Science and Data Science students from @ucu_ComputEng at @UCUniversity, emerged victorious in the recently concluded Inter-University Hackathon during AIFEST 2026.
