A new plan by Oregon State University will facilitate the sharing of green engineering expertise with Iraqi universities.
Iraqi professors will study at OSU’s sustainable engineering program in Corvallis, and Oregon professors and students will teach engineering, forestry, and agricultural science at several Iraqi universities.
The Oregonian reports:
“The nation of Iraq can begin to train their own engineers in sustainable growth and development,” [Gov. Ted] Kulongoski said in a prepared statement. “And Oregon students and faculty get on-the-ground training, strengthening their base of knowledge, planning and implementation.”
