  • Worked with Engineer Gunter and his Team of German experts in the ƽBiogas project  in connection with power generation.  The project was a success, the only major item missing is the dual fuel engine.
  • Assist Final year Engineering students with their research projects (consultation, procurement, design and implementation) .
  • Carried out a study on how power electricity bills can be reduced in the University during my undergraduate degree programme. The findings were that we can reduce our annual power bill by 28% if the recommended measures could be implemented.
  • Developed a Lab manuals for Electrical Machines and power Systems and Electical Engineering Principals. The university was able to save funds that were being used to take students to other Universities to carry out experiments.
