Engr. Prof. Oaikhinan draws on his long career in ceramic engineering and more than four decades of experience teaching ceramic engineering courses to deliver the fundamental concepts that students need to create their jobs, ceramic startups and established brands at various positions.

He is the first and only Professor of Ceramics Engineering in Nigeria from 1994 to date. Engr. Prof. Oaikhinan is known as an innovative thinker, who had successfully assisted high growth and competitive industries, universities, and consulting functions to achieve their key results. He is a Principal Consultant at Omega OPG Limited, a consulting firm to the Nigeria Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) that designed R&D evaluation and monitoring templates for oil and gas industries in Nigeria.

Prof. Oaikhinan won and utilized the prestigious Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU) fellowship for his research studies at Brunel University of West London, United Kingdom; the Carnegie Corporation of New York fellowship for his research studies at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, USA; the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and the Third World Academy of Sciences (TWAS) fellowships for his research studies at Central Glass and Ceramics Research Institute, Kolkata, India.

His current research interests are ceramic processing and microstructural evolution (in both traditional and advanced ceramic materials); tailoring microstructures and porosity for specific applications; and the development of sustainable ceramic manufacturing processes (i.e., energy efficient and environmentally-sound).

What Students Are Saying.

“The introduction to ceramics was very interactive and enriching. It piqued my interest in both traditional and advanced ceramics. I particularly enjoyed the interactivity and variety of activities. I had no prior experience, but the course deepened my understanding and supported my start-up ceramic business.”

Kunle Adeniran

“The eLearning course had lots of interactive features. The course was broken into multiple sections with different learning styles, which made the learning more effective.” I’ve worked with clay for years, but this course reignited my creative spark. The content was easy to understand and gave me new knowledge I can apply to my work.”

Olive Jumbo

“I came in knowing almost nothing about ceramics. The modules were beautifully designed and easy to follow. I keep going back and forth between the modules and love that you can do so. This course gave me the confidence to create several projects I liked. Oaikhinan teaching style felt like a friend guiding me.”

Welmer Gaiya

“I’ve worked with clay for years and have some experience with glazes, but the strength and value of this course was the creative process and inspiration around the clay work. Worth the investment. Absolutely loved every minute of it and will go over and over it again. I thank the lecturers for sharing so openly their passion. I also felt very at ease with Oaikhinan on the screen. It felt like he was hanging out with me in my living room giving me some tricks of the ceramic trade. Amazing course!”
