Research/technology: FUTA VC on working visit to George Mason University

As part of ongoing efforts of the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA) to deepen collaboration with leading Universities in the world, its Vice Chancellor (VC), Professor Joseph Fuwape, on Tuesday, paid a working visit to George Mason University, Virginia, the United States (U.S.)
During the visit, he participated in research cohort presentation and facilitated development of partnership between George Mason University and FUTA.
Fuwape also visited the Patriot Tech Computer/Electronic Centre of the best research intensive university in Virginia State, U.S.
The visit will consolidate FUTA’s drive for internationalisation and academic excellence as it already has an ongoing collaboration with the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University where selected FUTA students complete the final year of their undergraduate programme before proceeding for their masters degree.
More than 50 students have benefitted from the collaboration since it began in 2014.
