Masdar Institute students to learn about energy innovation in the US

A team of students from Masdar Institute of Science and Technology will spend two weeks in the US learning about energy innovation.

The group, who began their 11-day programme last Monday, will focus on the scientific, technical and social aspects of the global search for new forms of clean energy.

Organised and run by Massachusetts Institute of Technology, this is the second programme to take place between the two institutes. The Practical Experience scheme will also include field trips and networking events. The UAE group will return home on June 28.
