The conference is meant to create a forum to showcase scientific discoveries, encourage knowledge sharing and build an ecosystem for Engineering and allied disciplines. This year’s edition tagged the 4th International Engineering Conference (IEC 2023) with the theme “Smart Engineering and Technology Innovation for Enhancing Economic Growth” is carefully planned to proffer smart solutions to economic challenges through technological innovations. About 120 technical papers were received out of which 85 were accepted after thorough peer-review processes. The richness of this conference is the diver contribution from a wide range of Authors cut-across academia, industry, and researchers. Their technical and logical presentations give a robust knowledge base in Engineering and allied disciplines. It is not surprising that the conference has been receiving more attention from Authors and participants across the globe. The keynote address and the lead papers herein are from seasoned industry key players and top-notch researchers with international recognition. This conference is packed with research contributions and design and implementation of innovative technologies that have the potential to advance smart engineering and realize the goals set out for Industry 4.0 as the 4th industrial revolution. We should take great advantage of it to learn new ideas, network with experts, and play a part in the revolution that is already taking place. The Federal University of Technology Minna, the Citadel of learning is known for her contributions to research and innovation, especially in Engineering. Eminent researchers and scholars from the University form part of the conference organizing committee along with the editorial and Technical Board from the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Malaysia, Australia, etc. On behalf of the conference organizing committee, I thank you all for participating. To our dedicated reviewers, you are sincerely appreciated for finding time to 2023-03-21T00:00:00Z http://irepo.futminna.edu.ng:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/28939 Title: 3RD INTERNATIONAL ENGINEERING CONFERENCE (IEC 2019) Authors: SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL AND ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY (SEET) Abstract: The School of Engineering and Engineering Technology, Federal University of Technology, Minna, organized the 1st and 2nd International Engineering Conference in 2015 and 2017 respectively. With the emergence of the new School of Electrical Engineering and Technology and the School of Infrastructure, Process Engineering and Technology, the two schools came together to organize this 3rd International Engineering Conference (IEC 2019) with the theme: “The Role of Engineering and Technology in Sustainable Development” considering the remarkable attendance and successes recorded at the previous conferences. The conference is aimed at offering opportunities for researchers, engineers, captains of industries, scientists, academics, security personnel and others who are interested in sustainable solutions to socio-economic challenges in developing countries; to participate and brainstorm on ideas and come out with a communiqué, that will give the way forward. In this regard, the following sub-themes were carefully selected to guide the authors’ submissions to come up with this communiqué. 1. Engineering Entrepreneurship for Rapid Economic Growth. 2. Regulation, Standardization and Quality Assurance in Engineering Education and Practice for Sustainable Development. 3. Solutions to the Challenges in Emerging Renewable Energy Technologies for Sustainable Development. 4. Electrical Power System and Electronic as a Panacea for Rapid Sustainable Development 5.
