Lecturer and PhD student in the Computer Science Department, Dina Kadhim Mohsen, has qualified for the final stage of the Three Minute Thesis competition organized by the University of Technology. In the competition, she will present her research titled "A Swarm of Robots for Management and Coverage of an Area within a Dynamic Obstacles Environment." The research focuses on covering a specific area with a swarm of robots to find all targets and accomplish required tasks under all conditions and crises, through programming modern robots with complex algorithms.

Under the sponsorship of the President of the University of Technology, Professor Dr. Ahmad Mohammed Hassan Al-Ghabban, and supervised by the Head of the Computer Science Department, Professor Dr. Alaa Kadhim Farhan, with the presence of the Scientific Assistant, Professor Dr. Abeer Tariq Mouloud, the Computer Science Department organized a workshop titled "The Role of Awareness in Enhancing Occupational Safety and Health in the University Environment." The workshop was conducted by Assistant Professor Dr. Suheir Mohammed Zaki on Wednesday, 2024/3/27, at the late Dr. Abbas Fadhil hall, attended by students and professors of the department. The workshop discussed the concept of occupational safety and health, represented by specialized administrations and committees for safety and awareness through guidance, training, equipment purchase, and the establishment of a database accompanied by periodic reports. Occupational health aims to protect the worker from diseases, including psychological ones, with institutions' goals focusing on the worker, work, equipment, work environment, and protecting the human element from work hazards while maintaining the material elements for a safe environment within the institution. In conclusion, the Scientific Assistant awarded a certificate of appreciation to the lecturer.
