Amman- 28 September 2019
Dr. Walid Al-Zyoud from the School of Applied Medical Science (SAMS) - Biomedical Engineering Department at the German Jordanian University (GJU), has successfully completed the University of California San Diego Graduate Fellowship program. The Program involved 12 months of graduate-level course work and practicum.
For the third batch in the fellowship, a team of 32 faculty members was involved, including 4 leading instructors, and 4 advising experts from the United States to help develop the next generation of researchers to carry out high quality and ethically acceptable research.
The University of California San Diego (UCSD) in collaboration with Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST) leads the Project.
The 1–year program involves 16 units that are obtained by a 1-week intensive face-to-face course in Jordan, three online courses each 10 weeks long, and a summer practicum. Finishing these 16 units entitles the graduate to the University of California San Diego Fellow Graduate Certificate in Research Ethics.
