University of Monastir visits EEUM
The EEUM received the visit of the Dean of the University of Monastir, Mahjoub Aouni. The welcoming session included a formal presentation of both universities and collaboration prospects were discussed. The Dean of UMonastir, joined by the Director of the Institut Superieur des Metiers de la Mode de Monastir, Neji Ladhari, visited the Department of Textile Engineering (DET) and the Centre for Science and Textile Technology (2C2T), seeking to identify effective cooperation opportunities in the textile scientific domain. Located in Tunisia, UMonastir’s organizational structure and scientific focus areas are very similar to UMinho. Therefore, apart from textile engineering, other priority cooperation areas were identified, such as biomedical engineering, bioengineering and biotechnology.
