Industrial Advisory Board

Industry Partners offer networking, site visits, learning through peer to peer experiences and insights from industry specialists; but what sets us apart is our unique partner program that creates engagement, alignment, participation, tangible outcomes and enduring partnerships with other organisations and thought leaders. 

UNITECH is in the process of reviewing its Engineering programs so that they could be accredited according to the Washington Accord. Having an Industrial Advisory Board for Engineering is a requirement for accreditation. The purpose of a Unitech Engineering and Science Industry Advisory Board is to give external counsel in support of curriculum development, teaching, research, funding, industrial placing, visibility and employment of graduates of the programs involved. These are the current members of the Industrial Advisory Board.
