即将“南巡”:访问衣阿华州立大学和约翰迪尔

 

我曾写过博文介绍了中国首批赴美留学学习农业工程的20人,其中10人就在我现在访学的明尼苏达大学学习农业工程(偏重农机),另外10人在衣阿华州立大学(Iowa State University)学习农业工程(农艺)。为探寻农业工程前辈当年的求学足迹,打算方便时“南巡”,前往位于St Paul南边Ames的衣阿华州立大学访问交流。顺便也去农机装备制造巨头约翰迪尔公司参观学习。

 

衣阿华州立大学的农业与生物系统工程系在全美列前几位,很多的研究处于国际领先地位。经过导师、朋友介绍以及我自己的联系,已经确定要拜访十余位相关的专家教授。主要到农业与生物工程系和食品系参观学习。约翰迪尔公司是农业机械领域的领头羊,其产品遍及全球,无处不在。在中国的天津、佳木斯(已经参观)和宁波都建有公司和工厂。其生产的拖拉机、联合收获机等不仅性能卓越,外观也很出众。因明天要起早乘坐灰狗(Greyhound)赶路,在此不多说,等参观回来后再详细介绍。参观交流的行程附后,参照执行。
