1. 'EDUCATION Professor Ndy Ekere attended Williams Memorial Secondary School, Afugiri Umuahia where before gaining admission to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 1976 to Mechanical Engineering []. He graduated top of his class, with first class honours in 1981 and following completion of his National Youth Service Corps assignment, he joined the Shell Petroluem Development Corporation in 1982 as a Mechanical Engineer (Project Construction and Terminals OPerations)[]. Subsequently, he attended the Loughborough University, United Kingdom [], where he studied for and obtained the Master of Science Degree in Flexible MAnufacturing and Robotics in 1984 under a Federal Government of Nigeria Overseas Scholarship. He then proceeded to the University of Science and Techonolgy, Machester United Kingdom [], where he obtained the PhD in Manufacturing Engineering in 1987, also under a Federal Government of Nigeria Overseas Scholarship. Professor Ndy Ekere became a chatered Engineer (Registered with the Engineering Council, United Kingdom)in 1989. He is a fellow of fellow of the Institute of Engineering and Technology (FIET, 2004), a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (SFHEA, 2017) and was he elected to fellowship of the Nigeria Academy of Science (FAS, 2019).

2. CAREER Professor Ndy Ekere started his engineering career with the Shell Petroluem Development Corporation in 1982 as a Mechanical Engineer (Project Construction and Terminal Operations); and upon the completion of his PhD studies in 1987, he was retained by the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology as a visiting scholar [1987] and then was appointed a postdoctoral research fellow [1988]. He moved on to the then Nottingham Trent Polytecnic as a Lecturer in Production Engineering [], and then moved on to the University of Salford as a Lecturer in Manufacturing Engineering in 1989 [], where he was appointed a Professor of Manuufacturing Engineering in 1998. During his time with Salford, he established and led the Electronics Manufacturing Engineering Research Group (EMERG) and he served as the Director of Research for the School of Aeronautical, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. He left the University of Salford to take up appointment with the University of Greenwich in 2002 as the Head and later Dean of School of Engineering []. Following the completion of ten years of service with Greenwich as Head/Dean of School of Engineering; he was appointed the Dean of School of Technology with the University of Wolverhampton in 2012 []. He led a change managemnt programme at the University of Wolverhampton which led to the formation of the new Faculty of Science and Engineering and he was appointment the pioneer DEan of Faculty [2013 - 2016][]. He served on University Corporate Management Team and was appointed the UNiversity's Ambassador for Africa []. I addition to his very strong track ecord of acheivements at the Head of School, DEan of School and DEan of Faculty levels, Professor Ndy Ekere also a strong track record and profile in Electronics Interconnections and Relaibility Engineering Research. His research grant funding includes 25 EPSRC and industry funded projects worth over £4 miilionin which he led on several national and international research consortia; and he have published over 170 journal and conference papers []. He was awarded the American Society of MAnufacturing Engineering 2006 Total Excellence in Electronics Manufacturing prize in recognition of his contributions to the research in Electronics Manafcaturing Engineering [2]; and the Royal Society Visting Profesorship with the City University of Hong Kong in 2007[]. The results from his research projects which is focused on increasing science - based understanding of electronics manufacturing processes and materials, have also helped R&D staff, line managers and operators world-wide to increase process yield, improve product quality and reliability- thereby increasing their competitiveness in the global market place. the focus of the recent research work carried out by the EMERG to identify, explore and develop suitable assembly and packaging technologies both to meet the challenges of miniaturisation facing the electronics industry and to suppoprt virtual development of new and low cost electronic products. As new materials emerge and the industry incorporate many different assembly materials into the assembly process, it is also critical to be able to describe the intercations between materials and process parameters, and the accurate cahracterisation and modelling is an important pre-requisite to acheiving high yield and reliability. in terms of future work, the focus of Professor Ekere's activity will continue to be on process modelling to develop the process knowledge required to support the "virtual" development of new and low cost electronic products. Professsor Ekere's team have succesfully developed the "Dynamic tools" for optimizing the design and manufacture/assembly line perfromance in a "virtual environment" so that the commercial product build is right first time. The use of these empirically -enhanced process models for performance prediction is the key for gaining a greater undertanding of key phenomena governing product manufacture, assembly, in-service reliability, causes of failure, dis-assembly and recycling.
