GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY

George Washington University

By the end of 2019, we initiated and helped sign a five-year partnership agreement between The School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) of George Washington University and School of IT and Engineering (SITE) of ADA University.

Through 2025, we will be engaged in a comprehensive academic collaboration. Together with SEAS, we co-create graduate and undergraduate programs which are taught both in Baku and Washington DC; assist SITE in its aspirations to develop core faculty, while also diversifying its mix of faculty; enroll potential candidates from Azerbaijan to pursue PhD studies at GWU; increase the capacity of administrators, faculty and students at ADA; organize joint academic and scientific activities, such as courses, conferences, seminars, symposia or lectures; exchange research and teaching personnel; exchange publications and other materials of common interest and so on.

 

We have already launched two double degree programs: Ms in Computer Science and Data Analytics and Ms in Electrical and Power Engineering. For 5 years, our Center will be in forefront of this most comprehensive and strategic collaboration between ADA and GWU, which will help Azerbaijan in its aspirations to lift up the capacity in applied science, technology and engineering.
