Once again PKU Engineering will be hosting the Globex Summer Exchange program from July 7 – July 26 2014! With 9 courses available, engineering students can learn from leading professors in their field. The Globex Program courses are taught in English by academic staff from all over the world – the University of Toronto, the University of California, the Institute of Fluid Mechanics Toulouse, Chinese University of Honk Kong and more!
UNSW has a special agreement with PKU for this program, where our students can receive credit towards their engineering degree upon successful completion of the program. Essentially, it’s an intensive exchange just for engineering students!
ADDED BONUS: UNSW has secured Australian Government AsiaBound funding for this program. Up to 10 students will receive a scholarship of $2000 to assist them in their flights and accommodation making this a VERY affordable overseas program. Please note the AsiaBound funding is open to Australian citizens and Australian permanent residents only who are receiving credit for the program.
Courses available this year are:
- Interfaces and Plastic Deformations in Materials: From Theory to Engineering
- Smart Materials and Adaptive Systems
- Computational Fluids Dynamics and its Application to Multiphase Flows
- Biomaterials and Biocompatibility
- Applied Finite Element Technology
- Machine Learning in Biomedicine
- Basic Concepts and Applications in Nanomedicine
- China Today: Tradition and Modernization (potential general education subject)
- China’s Economy: Engineering, Growth and Global Connections (potential general education subject)
