The delegation was received by Dr. Majdi Owda, holder of the UNESCO Chair in Data Science for Sustainable Development and Dean of the Faculty of Data Science, and Dr. Raed Shomali from the Department of Administrative and Financial Sciences at the Faculty of Graduate Studies. During the meeting, the two parties discussed the possibility of creating joint projects to develop and employ data science in various fields. They also discussed some of the challenges and obstacles facing some institutions in employing data science and devoting it to facilitate business and data access smoothly.

This visit serves several purposes, most notably, strengthening the cooperative efforts of the two universities, strengthening the international partnership as well as resuming the agreements concluded between the two parties earlier when a delegation from the Arab American University visited Shenandoah University. This visit also aims to hold workshops aimed at developing university education and joint scientific research.

Mohamed Salahat, a lecturer in the Department of Occupational Therapy at the Arab American University, and Dr. Mitchell Wiley from the Department of Physical Therapy at Shenandoah University delivered a lecture. This lecture comes within the ongoing partnership project between the two universities, within the COIL program, which aims to exchange experiences between academics and students from both universities.
