Director da Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade Tecnológica de Nanyang visita a UM para aprofundar cooperação

Simon Redfern, dean of the College of Science at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, recently visited the University of Macau (UM) and met with UM Rector Yonghua Song. During the meeting, Rector Song and Prof Redfern exchanged ideas on cooperation and talent development in areas such as physics, chemistry, Chinese medicine, and mathematics. Wang Ruibing, director of Global Affairs Office of UM, gave the guest an introduction to UM’s current development, research layout, and internationalisation strategy. Prof Redfern then visited UM’s Institute of Applied Physics and Materials Engineering (IAPME), Institute of Chinese Medical Sciences (ICMS), and Department of Mathematics of the Faculty of Science and Technology to explore opportunities for cooperation in student exchange, joint PhD student supervision, and innovative research projects with heads and professors of different units. 

In April this year, Rector Song led a delegation to visit Nanyang Technological University. Prof Redfern’s visit to UM can help to implement cooperative projects between the two institutions. UM and Nanyang Technological University have maintained a good cooperative relationship since their first student exchange programme in 2013. Both sides look forward to establishing more diverse and in-depth collaborations and exchanges through mutual visits.
