College of Architecture and Engineering

The college principal, Prof. Peter Ngau, met with Allesandra Swiny, head of department of Architecture at University of Nicosia in Cypress to discuss possible collaboration between the two institutions.

The meeting stemmed from the interest by University of Nicosia to become more involved in international projects both from an academic stance and more active social and design role. The university is also developing a Master in Humanitarian action (with law and social departments), in collaboration with UN, Stuttgart and AUB in London.

The meeting discussed the possibility of the two universities having collaborations and projects in future. Collaboration between universities can increase the scope of research and could also mean international students so both universities stand to benefit.
