In addition, the UMaT intends to put this into practice, not just theoretically in the classroom but also in real-world settings.

The VC made these remarks in Tarkwa when the Ghana News Agency (GNA) inquired about UMaT’s efforts to promote education through AI.

He continued that the University have teamed up with AngloGold Ashanti Iduapriem Mine, and they were constructing a state-of-art smart system center fully equipped for them.

“Now whether you are learning mining engineering, logistics and transport or geomatic engineering, you can enter that space and try to see how you can digitize the area.

Even if you are learning history, you should be able to digitize the history, to make it easier for people to understand and appreciate it” he mentioned.

Mr Amankwah revealed that UMaT was currently working closely with the Ghana Chamber of Mines, and that this month, they would start building the Mining AI and Robotics Laboratory, where students would learn how to create prototypes, simulation processes, and innovate solutions for the mining industry and other aspects.

He said by training their students in this manner, UMaT was certain they would bring about positive change and innovation in their respective fields.
