Other speakers included Ambassador Frank G. Wisner, Vice Chairman, External Affairs of AIG, and Ron Somers, President, US-India Business Council. Four-plus-One Student Exchange Programs (proposed)This proposed arrangement with overseas partner universities allows students to complete their undergraduate degree program at the partner university in their home country and then complete a Master of Science or Master of Engineering Degree at Stevens Institute of Technology. To reduce the time and cost in the United States, students may take a number of their courses in their home country before coming to the United States. These courses may be taken online via WebCampus or at the partner university in their home country. |
