A de­le­ga­ti­on from the In­ter­na­tio­nal Univer­si­ty for Hu­ma­ni­ti­es and Develop­ment (IUHD) pa­id an of­ficial visit to Kent Sta­te Univer­si­ty (USA) from Au­gust 17 to 27, accor­ding to the count­ry’s In­ter­na­tio­nal In­for­ma­ti­on Cen­ter.
The trip was ai­med at strengt­he­ning ins­ti­tu­tio­nal develop­ment, in­ter­na­tio­na­li­zing education, and in­teg­ra­ting advanced in­ter­na­tio­nal practices in­to the educatio­nal process of the Turk­men univer­si­ty.
As part of a comp­re­hen­sive prog­ram, rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the Univer­si­ty of Hu­ma­ni­ti­es and Ru­ral Develop­ment (MUHNR) stu­di­ed Ame­rican accre­di­ta­ti­on stan­dards (HLC, ABET, AACSB) and develo­ped a practical ro­ad­map for mo­der­ni­zing their educatio­nal prog­rams, la­unching du­al deg­ree prog­rams, and develo­ping an MBA prog­ram.
Turk­men specia­lists we­re int­ro­duced to the univer­si­ty’s mo­dern re­so­urces, inclu­ding the Ohio­LINK and IL­Li­ad lib­ra­ry sys­tems, and visi­ted the De­sign In­novation Hub and the Ho­nors Col­le­ge. They al­so met with the Glo­bal Part­ners­hips te­am and rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the Em­bas­sy of Turk­me­nis­tan in the Uni­ted Sta­tes, laying a so­lid fo­un­da­ti­on for long-term coo­pe­ra­ti­on bet­we­en the two count­ri­es in hig­her education.
