The Faculty of Engineering at NEU is dedicated to building and strengthening bridges of international understanding and global research in education. The goal and gain of the Visiting Scholar program are to facilitate collaborative research with academic scholars and industrial professionals, introduce undergraduate students to the graduate program culture and expectations, and to expand the University’s global footprint and reputation.
