This program has been organized in accordance with the "Memorandum of Mutual Understanding" between the ICD and Russia's International Center of Technological Cooperation, Moscow Region, signed on July 1, 2003. Program participants study such subjects as machinery manufacturing, aerospace engineering and composite material engineering in Russia. After a trainee returns from Russia, the ICD compiles a report on transferable technology and provides it to our research institutions and private enterprises for reference. Since 1995, 47 individuals have studied in Russia under this program.
