NGEE

I'm Abel, the founder of Next Gen of Ethiopia Engineering (NGEE), which is created to transform engineering education in Ethiopia. I have a background in Electromechanical engineering, four years of hands-on experience in a industrial workshop, and industrial automation certification from polytechnic. I've seen how the traditional education system in Ethiopia focuses too much on theory and memorization not creative thinking and real life problem solving. I strongly believe the education system failed us in many ways, i am not here to complain but to find the solution. I personally believe in the outcome of learning through actual result not grades. How come a honer graduated electrical student can't fix his mom stove it is rather shameful. Through NGEE, I am working on creating free, practical courses that show how machines are built from scratch and how existing machinery works. I am also in a process of developing a blueprint for creating automated and computerized machines. In addition, i am in a path of creating online marketplace for purchasing machine parts directly from China. My goal is to empower the next generation of Ethiopian engineers and spark a manufacturing revolution.
