IoT Launcher recently participated in the Academic Advisory Board Meeting at Jose Rizal University (JRU), representing the Internet of Things (IoT) industry. This collaboration marks a significant step in aligning academic curricula with the rapidly evolving needs of the technology sector. IoT Launcher goal is to ensure the LoRaWAN in the Philippines is accessible to students and academe.
Our participation in this event underscores the importance of industry-academia partnerships in shaping the future of engineering education and make use of emerging technology like LoRaWAN network. By reviewing JRU’s engineering curriculum, we aimed to ensure that students are equipped with the skills and knowledge demanded by the current job market.
This collaborative effort aims to produce graduates who are not only theoretically sound but also practically prepared for the challenges of the IoT industry.
With the number of connected IoT devices expected to grow to 18.8 billion globally by the end of 20247, it’s crucial that engineering students are well-versed in this technology. LoRaWAN in the Philippines is a growing and our involvement ensures that JRU’s curriculum remains competitive and aligned with industry trends.
At IoT Launcher, we’re committed to nurturing the next generation of tech innovators. This collaboration with JRU is a testament to our dedication to bridging the gap between academia and industry, ensuring a bright future for both students and the IoT sector.
