Cyrus Aidun, long-term faculty member of RBI and its predecessor institutes, is in Sweden this summer promoting the Gunnar Nicholson Exchange Program. The RBI endowment makes the exchange possible, through a generous gift from Dr. Gunnar W.E. Nicholson to the Institute in 1984. This one-of-a-kind fellowship provides funds for a Swedish graduate engineer to study at RBI (IPST) for a period of three years or the time required to earn the PhD degree, whichever is shorter. Funds are also available to support a faculty exchange for one year. Dr. Aidun spent two summers at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Sweden as part of the program. PSE student Tyrone Wells is just finishing up a one-year exchange at Chalmers University of Technology
