IGNITE March/April newsletter Faculty of Engineering
Dear <<First Name>>,
I hope you are safe as we all adapt to the current challenges created by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). At the University of Sydney, many of our researchers have pivoted to help understand and fight the pandemic through their research. I am immensely proud of their work and we have created a dedicated COVID-19 research website portal if you would like to learn more.
Teaching and research continues across the University and I encourage you to explore our latest engineering and computer science breakthroughs in this edition of IGNITE. I believe partnership and innovation are more important than ever in the current climate and we always welcome opportunities to collaborate.
Best regards,
Professor Willy Zwaenepoel
Dean, Faculty of Engineering
