Special Features
International Activities
We intend the program to have an international flavor, largely in recognition of the fact that European nations have been leaders in industrial heritage issues. The program seeks to insure the continuous presence of at least one international participant (postdoctoral fellow or visiting faculty member). We already have expressions of interest from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm (Dr. Marie Nisser); the Ironbridge Iinstitute in England (Dr. Roger White); Bergakademie Freiburg (Mining Institute) and the Technische Universität Freiberg, Germany; scholars at the Museu de la Ciència i de la Tècnica de Catalunya (mNACTEC) in Barcelona, Spain, and faculty with the National Technical University of Norway in Trondheim. In addition, we are developing international research experiences.
