EMPOWERING FUTURE ENGINEERS WITH ROBOTICS & IOT SKILLS THAT GO BEYOND CLASSROOMS
At UniFirst Robotics, our mission is to transform classrooms into innovation hubs, and this vision came alive at G. Pulla Reddy Engineering College (GPREC), Kurnool. In collaboration with the IEEE Robotics & Automation Society (RAS), we conducted a two-day hands-on training program on Robotics & IoT that empowered students to move beyond theory and create real-world solutions.
Driving Innovation Through Hands-On Learning
This workshop was carefully designed to bridge the gap between academic concepts and industry applications. Over two days, students explored:
✅ Building and programming robots from scratch
✅ Integrating IoT systems into robotics projects
✅ Understanding how innovation can solve real-world problems
✅ Collaborating as teams to turn ideas into tangible results
The energy and excitement in the workshop reflected a simple truth: when students are given the right tools and mentorship, they don’t just learn—they innovate.
EXCEPTIONAL LEADERSHIP AND DELIVERY
The sessions were led by S. Sunil Kumar, Managing Director of UniFirst Robotics, whose clarity, practical approach, and inspiring delivery were praised as “Excellent” by participants. His words reinforced the belief that today’s students are tomorrow’s innovators, and the right exposure can unlock their true potential.
WHY THIS MATTERS
This workshop was more than an academic activity—it was a movement towards goal-oriented learning. By enabling students to think creatively, experiment boldly, and innovate fearlessly, UniFirst Robotics is laying the foundation for a future-ready workforce equipped with 21st-century skills. In today’s rapidly changing world, industries demand more than just technical knowledge—they require problem solvers, innovators, and leaders. Programs like these ensure that students don’t just learn concepts, but also apply them in real world contexts, preparing them to face tomorrow’s challenges with confidence.
By introducing Robotics and IoT at this stage, we are:
>> Bridging the gap between classroom learning and industry expectations
>> Cultivating innovation by encouraging students to design and test solutions
>> Building resilience and teamwork, essential traits for professional success
>> Inspiring future entrepreneurs, who will not just seek jobs but create them
The impact goes beyond technical training—this is about mindset transformation.
Every student who participated left with a new perspective on technology and self belief in their ability to make an impact. This is why at UniFirst Robotics, we see each workshop not just as a session but as a
spark that ignites long-term innovation and leadership.
