During the 2019 spring break, five Nebraska Computer Science and Computer Engineering (CSCE) students travelled to Amman, Jordan for a faculty-led program on Dynamic Programming in partnership with a Jordanian university.

The one-credit education abroad program also expanded upon a virtual exchange course with Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT) launched in fall 2018. Nebraska students engaged with PSUT students through shadowing, in-class interaction and a computer programming contest.

Ryan Patrick, Computer Science and Engineering lecturer, and Tareq Daher, Director of Engineering and Computing Education Core, served as program leaders.
