11 scholars receive KUKA industrial robotics training at German Robotics Centre (DKR)

In early November, 11 of our scholars received cutting edge industrial certified KUKA robotics training at the German Robotics Centre (DKR). The training was funded by Bosnia & Herzegovina Futures Foundation in partnership with the Foundation for Innovation, Technology and Transfer of Knowledge (FITT). Scholars learned about the mechanics, software, deployment of field solutions and the wider industry context of automation.

The students completed KUKA BASIC training and had the opportunity to learn from seasoned robotics expert who provided valuable one on one learning time also. The topics covered included robotic manipulation (space, speed, planes & direction), troubleshooting, calibration, coordination calculation, program editing and custom program development/execution.

The students who participated in this round of training:

  • Dijana Čaušević, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Tuzla

  • Luka Čakarević, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Banja Luka

  • Nina Stefanović,, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Banja Luka

  • Irma Redžepagić , Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Sarajevo

  • Semir Brkić, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Tuzla

  • Selman Patković, Polytechnic Faculty, Zenica

  • Jana Jerkić, Polytechnic Faculty, Zenica

  • Esma Esma Đulović, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Sarajevo

  • Haris Peštalić, IPI Academy, Tuzla

  • Haris Kordić, Faculty of Information Technologies, Mostar

  • Adnan Kubat, Polytechnic Faculty, Zenica

Bosnia & Herzegovina Futures Foundation and FITT Foundation have a close working relationship aiming to provide unique educational opportunities, empower young people, to create new better paid jobs and to help youth succeed even in difficult circumstances.  

This training will help the students to respond more effectively to the needs of the market and their communities and make the job search much easier. This is just one of many training programs BH Futures Foundation and FITT plan to implement together.

FITT is always happy to collaborate with BH Futures Foundation and support youth in their professional development. We believe that our contribution to youth education will leave a mark and change their mindset to outbalance the biggest barriers that prevent them from making the most of their lives. This education is surely one step in the right direction.
