Ten students from United States were recently in the Sultanate for an 11-week research on bat cave with Universiti Brunei Darussalam.
The collaboration served to leverage on biodiversity resources by transforming them into bio-inspired engineering in digital technologies. The students also toured the capital including a boat ride around Kampong Ayer to explore the Brunei River ecosystems. Also joining the tour were Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Director of BIST Centre at Virginia Tech, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) Dr Rolf Mueller and President of a youth empowerment non-profit organisation Uplift Salimah binti Haji Saim and Buzzing Bees Head Nurul Hazwani binti Haji Abdul Halid.
