September 17, 2015

David Ross shakes on an agreement with a representative from Guangdong University.

When it comes to its commitment to partnerships in applied education, SAIT is engaging the world. And the world is responding.

A delegation from Guangdong University of Petrochemical Technology (GDUPT) based in Maoming, a major oil and gas centre in China met with SAIT executives and toured the campus.

The result? The two institutes signed a Memorandum of understanding to explore opportunities to share information, experiences and expertise in technical training and applied education.

These opportunities include:

Increasing global learning opportunities for students
Developing twinning and other joint programs
Creating new or joint credentials
Enhancing professional development/exchanges for faculty and staff
Developing mutually beneficial industry partnerships for industrial training and applied research initiatives
