On the July 14th, 2024, a group of 20 selected students from the 4th year 2nd semester of the department of Computer Science and Engineering participated in an Industrial Visit to Robi's corporate office.

This initiative was facilitated by the efforts of Ms. Tasnim Zaman (HR Business Partnering and Talent Acquisition, Robi Axiata Limited), and Mr. Saha Reno (Assistant Professor, CSE, AUST), providing students with a substantial learning opportunity. The smooth execution of the programs was managed by Mr. Md. Reasad Zaman Chowdhury (Lecturer Grade-I) and Mr. Raihan Tanvir (Lecturer Grade-I), who ensured effective supervision throughout the process.

The highlight of the visit was a lecture session led by Mr. Imtiaz Mohamud Rafi from Robi's technology team. The session covered fundamental aspects of telecommunications, including how data is transmitted over networks, the technologies behind 4G and 5G networks, and future trends like the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence. Mr. Rafi also provided valuable career advice, guiding students on how to prepare for careers in this dynamic field.

The students also had the opportunity to engage in a Q&A session, where they discussed various technical and career-related topics with the industry expert. This interactive segment allowed them to clarify doubts, gain deeper insights into the workings of the telecommunications sector and understand the skills required to excel in this fast-evolving industry. The visit concluded with students gaining valuable insights into the telecommunications industry, enriching their academic journey and offering practical guidance for their future careers.
