The UNU-CS successfully hosted the 2016 Georgia Tech Study Abroad Program in Macau from May 20 to July 1. The Sam Nunn School of International Affairs at Georgia Institute of Technology sent a group of students, three graduates and six undergraduates, to spend six weeks at UNU-CS to study science, technology, and international affairs. The program was led by Prof Fei-Ling Wang with assistance from the UNU-CS research staff. The students, majoring in international affairs or engineering, took classes and engaged in research activities on information and computing technologies (ICTs) and society. Under the supervision of the UNU-CS research staff, the Georgia Tech students studied and presented on the following research topics: “ICTs and Myanmar political and technological transformations,” “Social and formal media tracking for crisis response and election monitoring,” and “ICTs and peacekeeping operations and innovation.” The graduate students also wrote and presented their research papers on “ICT policy and the Economic Development in Japan and Taiwan,” “ICTs and state security and national defense,” and “Internet in China.”
