AIT continues to assist NUOL for the second phase of Sida/SAREC
AIT continues to assist National University of Laos (NUOL) during the envisaged second phase of Sida/SAREC from 2007 to 2010. AIT's assistance will be in the areas of research & financial management, curriculum development, and ICT. There will also be provision of a number of scholarships to AIT from NUOL. The discussion on this matter was mentioned at a meeting between Prof. Said Irandoust, AIT President, on 8 February 2007, with Dr. Gity Behravan, Sida Research Advisor and Dr. Dietrich Schmidt-Vogt of School of Environment, Resources and Development concerning the status of AIT's support to NUOL.
Sida, which provides substantial support to NUOL through the Sida / SAREC project, had requested AIT to assist NUOL during an extension period of the first phase of Sida / SAREC from June 2006 to March 2007.
