ABU DHABI — The Institutes of Applied Technology (IAT) are working currently to add on new curricula, practices and scientific programmes into its undergraduate courses to encourage students to become scholars and scientists in contemporary nuclear, engineering and technology.
Dr Abdulatif Al Shamsi, Director-General, IAT, said this was discussed during the IAT Annual Retreat 2010 held recently by the administrative and educational leaders of the IAT in Sir Bani Yas Island chaired by Hussain Al Hamadi, chairman of IAT’s board of trustees.
A number of key topics among which how to optimally prepare an undergraduate in a scientific and technological manner, in line with international quality norms were discussed. The IATs are adopting a course of action for future plans to bring to application the internal quality systems so as to maintain the progress achieved by the ITA academically and administratively.
