In an effort to enhance its global presence, members of the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville administrative team met with delegates from China’s Shenyang Aerospace University on campus Monday. The event was organized by the SIUE School of Engineering.
“The School of Engineering is dedicated to developing partnerships with universities worldwide,” said the School’s Dean Hasan Sevim. “This visit provided us with an opportunity to explore collaborative programs in mechanical and electrical engineering.”
Currently, the School of Engineering has a partnership with Istanbul Technical University in industrial engineering and is reaching out to other countries for additional partnership agreements.
Administrators from the SIUE schools of Business, Education and Engineering, as well as the SIUE Center for International Programs also took part in educating the delegates about SIUE and all the University has to offer.
