Ambassador Sparwasser met with German students enrolled at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, as well as those students who have studied in Germany, who provided insight into their experiences and highlighted their research areas. Nancy Ross, Vice-Principal (Research) and Vice-Provost den Otter also co-hosted a research exchange, featuring presentations by several Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s faculty members currently active in Germany and funded by German research bodies.

The visit concluded with the ambassador카지노 게임 컬렉션s attendance of a public lecture by Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s faculty member Cao Thang Dinh, of the Department of Chemical Engineering, about decarbonization of fuels and chemicals. Clean energy and climate change are topics of mutual importance to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, the Embassy of Germany in Canada, and German research funding bodies.
