Dr. Farah Corona-Strauss recently visited Mexico on behalf of our unit and htw saar to expand academic and research partnerships with two leading institutions: Universidad Iberoamericana (IBERO) in Mexico City and Universidad Anáhuac Mayab in Mérida.
At IBERO—where Dr. Corona-Strauss is an undergraduate alumna of the Biomedical Engineering program—her visit built upon ongoing Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) initiatives. Through these joint efforts, students in Mexico and Germany share virtual classrooms, collaborate on cross-border projects, and advance shared research in neuroscience and biomedical engineering.
At Universidad Anáhuac Mayab, Dr. Corona-Strauss engaged directly with students across the Biomedical, Mechatronics, and Industrial Engineering programs. During the visit, she presented opportunities for undergraduate academic exchanges as well as pathways into our Master’s program in Neural Engineering at htw saar, while meeting with program coordinators to further expand our institutional exchange framework.
Together, both visits reinforce our international network, fostering bilateral collaboration and health technology innovation between Mexico and Germany.
