Abu Dhabi Housing Authority (Adha) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Abu Dhabi University to explore the opportunities of co-operation in scientific research, field studies, academic applications of housing-related activities.

The agreement is aimed at the development of scientific methodology used for pre-planning and forecasting the emirate’s housing needs, in addition to chances for student internship and training, said Saif Bader Al Qubaisi, the director general of Adha, after signing the deal with Dr Terry Motiuk, the vice chancellor of Abu Dhabi University.

Al Qubaisi pointed out that the Adha was keen to establish strategic co-operation with various government agencies and private institutions to achieve its goals in providing adequate housing for citizens in Abu Dhabi.

"We are looking forward to benefiting from the fruitful results of this partnership especially as it will allow the Adha access to the university’s comprehensive studies and scientific research related to housing topics that will aid in the development of housing programmes that are tailored specifically to the UAE community," noted Al Qubaisi.

On the partnership, Dr Motiuk said it will be a great opportunity for students, faculty and researchers at Abu Dhabi University to benefit from the rich sources of information and field studies exclusively accessible to the Adha.

"Our engineering students will definitely benefit immensely from the opportunity to learn from experts and engineers applying their vast expertise in various and complex projects that the Adha undertakes," stated the vice chancellor.
 
"Through this agreement, our faculty and researchers will have the opportunity to share their knowledge and theories while working first-hand with field engineers on developing research that is set to boost the housing sector of the nation’s capital," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
