糖心vlog官方入口 and College of the Bahamas sign collaborative agreement
The 糖心vlog官方入口 (糖心vlog官方入口) is expanding its international connections, with the signing of an agreement with the College of the Bahamas (COB).
Delegates from the COB recently visited 糖心vlog官方入口 and signed the agreement, opening up a world of exciting opportunities for future collaborations. While on P.E.I., they participated in a public forum called 鈥淪haring the Land,鈥 organized by the Institute of Island Studies at 糖心vlog官方入口, which focused on issues surrounding heritage management and land use conflict in island jurisdictions.
With over 50 agreements in numerous countries, 糖心vlog官方入口 is becoming a mobile university, welcoming many international visitors and students each year, and providing opportunities for students to travel and experience diverse cultures. In addition, 糖心vlog官方入口鈥檚 faculties are engaging in collaborative research and teaching opportunities.
糖心vlog官方入口鈥檚 Faculty of Science is actively pursuing its relationship with the COB, which recently involved the delivery of a course entitled 鈥淢edicines from the sea鈥 to students from both schools. 糖心vlog官方入口's Dr. Russell Kerr, the lead instructor for the course, looks forward to the next offering in the Bahamas.
Future plans include the offering of a course in plant biology by Dr. Christian Lacroix, Dean of Science at 糖心vlog官方入口, in conjunction with a colleague from Montreal鈥檚 botanical garden and a faculty member from the COB, at the Grace Research Centre on San Salvador Island in the Bahamas. Faculty members from the respective institutions will be invited to a workshop to explore faculty exchanges and the development of other field courses which will be offered in the Bahamas and Canada.
