Dr Dhiya Al-Jumeily, Associate Dean of Global Engagement from the Faculty of Engineering and Technology, University of John Moore Liverpool (LJMU) visited Taylor’s University to enhance collaboration activities in teaching and research with School of Engineering (SOE). During his short visit, Dr Al-Jumeily mentioned that LJMU is very keen to collaborate on many areas with SOE, which includes student exchange, short summer programmes and joint research and design projects. LJMU is working towards formalizing a partnership agreement with Taylor’s University and it is hoped in the coming year there will be a flow of students going on teaching and research exchange between both campuses.
