IPB to link up with U.S. universities

BOGOR, West Java: The Bogor Institute of Agriculture (IPB) is
considering the establishment of an exchange program with three
universities in the United States toward academic excellence.

The three universities are the University of Georgia, Auburn
University and Purdue University.

Muhammad Agil, IPB's international program deputy head, said
on Sunday the program would include exchange in lecturers and
students, and visiting U.S. scholars would be asked to present
ideas on how to develop the curriculum at IPB.

Most IPB lecturers graduated from universities in Germany,
Japan and Australia, while only a few graduated from American
universities. -- Antara
