ENGINEERINGNET.EU -- The Saudi company SABIC has expanded its multi-year agreement with one of the world's top-ranked universities, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich.
Last year already SABIC entered into a research collaboration agreement with the university in the field of functional materials and nanotechnology. The new agreement will 'strengthen this research alliance and allow the two sides to enter into strategic partnerships' to develop technologies into real life solutions.
ETH Zurich regularly appears on the top of international university rankings. Twenty one Nobel Laureates have studied, taught or conducted research at the university, underlining the outstanding reputation of the institute.
