The
University of Houston-Downtown encourages international exchange
programs for its faculty and students. The Department of Natural
Sciences has active research and educational collaborations
with Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, the University
of Gdansk, and the Technical University of Lodz.
Generous funding from the Brown Foundation
in Houston has initiated a Geosciences field study exchange
wherein Polish students from Adam Mickiewicz University (Poznan)
came to UHD for 3 weeks in the Summer I semester (see below).
Next summer, UHD students will be doing geology field work
in Poland. Interested students should contact Prof.
Ken Johnson or Prof. Akif
Uzman. For an introduction to this program, click

New exchanges of students and faculty in
2008 will include research and educational exchanges in Biotechnology
and Environmental Sciences with the University of Gdansk,
Adama Mickiewicz University, and the Technical University
of Lodz, funded by the Brown Foundation and the Minority Science
& Engineering Improvement Program of the US Department
of Education. Interested students should contact
Prof. Akif Uzman. |
