Burak Axioglu, Jose Fernando Camacho, and Alan Vazquez in the College of Mathematical and Physical Sciences.
Two professors from the Industrial Engineering Department recently traveled to Monterrey, Mexico.
Burak Axioglu and Alan Vazquez traveled to Monterrey and met with representatives of the Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo León. The colleges he visited included the College of Mathematical and Physical Sciences and the College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. In addition, they also met with faculty and students from the Department of Industrial Engineering at the Tecnológico de Monterrey.
While in Monterey, the team met with representatives from the EducationUSA Advising Center at the Benjamin Franklin Library. EducationUSA is a network of the US State Department with more than 430 international student advising centers in more than 175 countries and territories. The network promotes US higher education to students around the world by providing information on opportunities to study at accredited post-secondary institutions in the US. EducationUSA serves the American higher education community to help institutional leaders meet their recruiting and campus globalization goals.
Aksioglu and Vazquez made presentations during their visit. Exioglu covered opportunities in the industrial engineering department at U of A and Vazquez shared his latest research efforts. It was clear from the meetings that the schools were very happy to have their students show their interest.
Future efforts to connect with the schools include an online information session in October to cover the application process and cycles. In the future, more online sessions will be held to further strengthen the new relationships based on this journey.
