Biography

Aliyu Makama received his bachelors degree in Computer Engineering from Bayero university kano, Nigeria in 2012. He then proceeded to obtain his Master degree in Microelectronic and Communications Engineering at University of Northumbria Newcastle, United Kingdom in the year 2017. The focus of his thesis then was in the area of Visible Light Communication.

In 2019, he secured a fully funded scholarship from the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) in collaboration with the Nigerian Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) to pursue his PhD in the area of Wireless Seismic Data Acquisition Networks, with focus on oil and gas exploration/monitoring application scenario, which he completed in June 2024. He is currently a research fellow at the Institute of Communication Networks, Hamburg University of Technology.
