An iLab system links three computer stations: a Lab Server which runs the laboratory hardware, a Client – the graphical user interface customized to remotely access the laboratory hardware and a Service Broker which manages access to the laboratory and mediates information flow between the Lab Server and the Client. iLabs@MAK is carried out in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and the University of Dar-es-salaam. The fundamental hardware and software used is provided mainly by National Instruments (NI). Mission Advancing knowledge and skills beneficial to Uganda in particular and the world at large through collaboration with pre-eminent Research institutions spearheaded by MIT. Vision To facilitate the improvement of the student learning experience by contributing meaningfully to the movement within higher education leading to global sharing of lab experiments over the Internet. Research iLabs@MAK comprises student developers (both Graduate and Undergraduate) and members of staff from the Faculty of Technology. The student developers carry out research in development of new labs to support curricula of the Bsc. Electrical, Telecommunications and Computer Engineering Programmes. To date, laboratories have been developed supporting experimentation in the fields of Digital circuit analysis, Amplitude/Frequency Modulation, Pulse Code Modulation and Digital Data Transmission. These experiments are used in the courses of Introduction to Digital Electronics (1st year), Applied Digital Electronics, Basic Telephony and Communication Theory I (3rd year). The ongoing research seeks to develop laboratories supporting the fields of Digital Signal Processing, Embedded Systems, Fiber Optic Systems, and Control Systems Engineering.

Bsc. Construction Management will be still offered at Graduate level as MSc. Construction Management. This will allow for specialization at this level from a wide base of undergraduate programmes and also offer an opportunity for advanced research in Construction Management pic.twitter.com/QwnoW9k4HK Last month from Makerere University CEDAT's Twitter via Twitter Web App 3. BSc. Telecommunications Engineering with BSc. Computer Engineering are being merged to form BSc. Computer and Communications Engineering which will provide the students with a wider scope of employment opportunities and more options for specialization pic.twitter.com/Z8LQC5Flya Last month from Makerere University CEDAT's Twitter via Twitter Web App 2. Those already enrolled on these programmes will not be affected in anyway. Students on the programmes will continue to have normal classes until graduation. pic.twitter.com/RcgsNoE91C Last month from Makerere University CEDAT's Twitter via Twitter Web App Communication about phased out programmes at CEDAT... 1.
