Sister Institutions Chart Plans to Collaborate on Research

Feb. 10, 2012

More than 500 miles separate UT Dallas and UT Pan American, but the two schools hope to effectively narrow that distance after research faculty from both met to discuss working together on science, technology, engineering and mathematics projects. The STEM Faculty Research Symposium gathered  faculty from the sister institutions in hopes of establishing a program that promotes long-term collaboration in their fields. Disciplines represented at the symposium included biology, electrical engineering, physics, geosciences, chemistry, material science, mathematics and mechanical engineering.
