Brazil's diplomacy and soft power attracting US universities' efforts in internationalisation through an in-country physical presence

ABSTRACT Through activities such as institutional partnerships, scholarships, mobility and, most recently, offshore campuses and satellite offices, universities and their nations of origin have furthered their relationship with key-countries. This paper aims to understand what factors universities considered when choosing the host country of their satellite offices and possible interest in diplomacy. The exercise focused on the efforts of US universities in Brazil. It tested expressions of soft power versus internal elements of universities’ administration to verify their significance. By checking the efforts of 131 US universities, this paper hints that non-academic elements, such as a country’s foreign policy, were also statistically significant and must be taken into account when analysing universities’ internationalisation strategies.

Design and analysis of biogas plant for the institutional campus

India is a developing country with a growing economy, which shows high consumption of goods and years of waste especially in urban areas. In modern times, as the demand for energy grows, the demand for biogas has increased. Many biogas plants have already been established in rural and urban areas and studies show that Biogas will soon replace fossil fuels as a source of energy. This project is centered on the design and analysis of Biogas Plant for any institutional campus. Production of biogas can be done using raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal waste, plant material, sewage, green waste or food waste. In any institute, there are multiple mess and canteen which cater to more than 3000 students daily and generate over 80 kg of solid and semi solid waste in the form of left-over food and remains of vegetables and fruits. In the process of making biogas from biomass, two main products are obtained: i) Methane (55–70 %) and ii) Slurry i.e., organic fertilizer. These can be used for different purposes. Methane can be used to light the houses, cook food and as a fuel for vehicles. The organic fertilizers are considered to be more productive than traditional fertilizers and are widely used in fields. The purpose of this biogas plant is to address the problem of waste disposal in canteens and other parts of the campus in an environmentally friendly manner.Various designing factors such as size, site selection, raw materials supply and output calculations are done in the project to meet the requirements. The size of the plant is determined by collecting data of solid mass and semi solid mass generated as waste and plant required to process the raw materials into biogas effectively. After collection of data, site visit and numerous case studies were done to understand better about the objective. To understand the current developments and research in the field, thorough study of research papers about the topic was done to apply most recent advancements in the design and execution.

Optimal Energy Management of a Campus Microgrid Considering Financial and Economic Analysis with Demand Response Strategies

An energy management system (EMS) was proposed for a campus microgrid (µG) with the incorporation of renewable energy resources to reduce the operational expenses and costs. Many uncertainties have created problems for microgrids that limit the generation of photovoltaics, causing an upsurge in the energy market prices, where regulating the voltage or frequency is a challenging task among several microgrid systems, and in the present era, it is an extremely important research area. This type of difficulty may be mitigated in the distribution system by utilizing the optimal demand response (DR) planning strategy and a distributed generator (DG). The goal of this article was to present a strategy proposal for the EMS structure for a campus microgrid to reduce the operational costs while increasing the self-consumption from green DGs. For this reason, a real-time-based institutional campus was investigated here, which aimed to get all of its power from the utility grid. In the proposed scenario, solar panels and wind turbines were considered as non-dispatchable DGs, whereas a diesel generator was considered as a dispatchable DG, with the inclusion of an energy storage system (ESS) to deal with solar radiation disruptions and high utility grid running expenses. The resulting linear mathematical problem was validated and plotted in MATLAB with mixed-integer linear programming (MILP). The simulation findings demonstrated that the proposed model of the EMS reduced the grid electricity costs by 38% for the campus microgrid. The environmental effects, economic effects, and the financial comparison of installed capacity of the PV system were also investigated here, and it was discovered that installing 1000 kW and 2000 kW rooftop solar reduced the GHG generation by up to 365.34 kg CO2/day and 700.68 kg CO2/day, respectively. The significant economic and environmental advantages based on the current scenario encourage campus owners to invest in DGs and to implement the installation of energy storage systems with advanced concepts.

Online refinement of day‐ahead forecasting using intraday data for campus‐level load

Day-ahead forecasting for campus-level load is important for better energy management, but especially difficult to be accurate, compared to large-scale loads such as cities or regions. This is because irregular and unpredictable behavior of individual loads in small-scale loads cannot be fully smoothed out and thus pose a negative impact on forecasting accuracy. This paper presents an online refinement strategy for day-ahead forecasting using intraday data for a campus-level load, focusing on self-adapting correction of forecasting considering load pattern. First, according to the load pattern forecasted by Classification and Regression Trees (CART) one day ahead, the correction parameter group is assigned to the correction model. If the correction conditions are met, the forecasting results for the rest of the day will be updated. After all-day load data is achieved, the actual load pattern can be identified and used to train CART model. To confirm the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, the model is evaluated by two datasets, a real-life dataset of an industrial park in Shanghai China and a public dataset of an institute campus in Delhi, India. The results demonstrate that the proposed strategy can improve short-term forecasting accuracy.

Review: Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers edited by Shannon Madden, Michele Eodice, Kirsten T. Edwards, and Alexandria Lockett

Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers takes us from narratives to research. I was interested in and looked forward to reading this book, as, over the summer, some graduate students and I read Degrees of Difference: Reflections of Women of Color on Graduate School (McKee & Delgado, 2020), and I wanted to see how the books complemented each other. While Degrees of Difference was more personal, more narrative-based, and more interdisciplinary, both books stressed the importance of mentoring. But I am especially excited to bring some of the ideas from Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers to my Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) campus. Our graduate population at The University of Texas Permian Basin is growing, and we need to offer it more support.

Possible sources of ambient PM10 inside Jadavpur University Campus, Kolkata.

High concentration of particulates in the university and research institutional campus can affect cognitive performance of students and researchers. However, studies on ambient particulate concentration in the campus of universities or research institutes are scarce. The ambient concentration of PM10 was measured in the campus of Jadavpur University, Kolkata, during two different seasons (S1: Post-monsoon; S2: Winter) to identify major sources of pollutant here. Significant seasonal variation of ambient PM10 was recorded in the campus. The average ambient PM10 concentration was recorded higher in S2 compared to S1 of the study period. Morphological characteristics of PM10 during the study period suggest that the roundness of particles was in the range of 0.66 to 0.68, whilst the mean spherical diameter suggests most of the PM10 particles were < 2.5 μ diameter. Based on factorial analysis, three factors were generated which includes factor 1: soil, building material and coal burning particles (53.76% of the variance); factor 2: particles from coal combustion (29.89% of the variance) and factor 3: particles from transport emission (16.33% of the variance). The study suggests that it is important to stop burning coal, reduce vehicular emission and reduce road dust resuspension around the campus to maintain the ambient PM10 concentration within the university campus during the post-monsoon and winter months.

Eichhornia crassipes leaves biomass harvested from heavy metal contaminated water for biodiesel production potential

Energy is crucial for life and the issues related to fossil fuels (coal, gas and mineral oils) like limited availability, increasing prices, etc., have necessitated the need for some alternative energy sources. Eichhornia crassipes is known as widespread aquatic weed and a well known heavy metal hyperaccumulator. Its leaves biomass reported to have biochemical profile to be utilized for bioenergy generation. Therefore, the present study was conducted at the Institute campus during 2017–2020 with an aim to materialize the prolific growth of this aquatic weed to generate bioenergy sources such as Biodiesel from heavy metal contaminated water, thus proposing a strategy of its control through utilization. GC-MS screening of E. crassipes leaves extract showed the presence of methyl esters such as 8-Octadecenoic acid; 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid (Z, Z)-Hexadecanoic acid. Lower TL content (∼16%) was observed in E. crassipes leaves biomass raised at T2 culture (4 ppm Pb) as compared to T1 culture (1 ppm Pb). Characterization of the produced biodiesel using FTIR, confirmed the presence of the ester group. The FA analysis of esterified lipid showed the presence of C16:0, C18:1 and C18:3, which are known to be the common FAs present in biodiesel. The findings of the present study could provide a promising way of utilizing E. crassipes growing in wastewater contaminated with a lower concentration of heavy metal (lead) for biodiesel production.

Effect of Vegetation Cover and Shading on Thermal and Visual Comfort in Institutional Campus Outdoor Spaces in India

This paper investigates the phenomenon of Urban Heat Island (UHI) in open spaces that when combined creates a problem at a city level. This paper will primarily focus on institutional campuses, wherein open spaces play a vital role for each and every user for interaction and other purposes. When architects and urban designers deal with the physical properties of a space, and therefore modify its material, thermal, and lighting characteristics, they influence the social environment as well. The method used in this study is the analysis of secondary data available so far. The aim of the study is to understand the UHI phenomenon in urban public spaces and suggest measures that would help mitigate the same and make it a better space in terms of comfort. It includes off-site measurement of climatic conditions on particular given day and observations of student behavior in the public spaces. The result is obtained by ENVImet software simulation in the case study area of DCRUST university campus in Murthal, Haryana. The study area is located in the North part of India and has composite climate. This paper refers to research results showing the comparison of various cases that can be designed in an urban open space and with the help of simulation it shows the best combination to be used and how that combination changes the open space design by improving thermal comfort. It shows that in composite climate, the strategy of implementing thick and heavy foliage vegetation in combination with the water body (such as artificial ponds, swales, pits etc.) causing evaporative cooling that in return enhances the microclimatic environment and visual comfort for pedestrian walkability, usability of the open space and by acting against the anthropogenic heat.

Failure assessment for drinking water distribution system in the case of Bahir Dar institute of technology, Ethiopia

In this paper, the issue of failure assessment in the drinking water distribution system was presented. This specific study was conducted on the water distribution system on the campus of Bahir Dar Institute of Technology. The current problem in Bahir Dar institute of technology is that the water infrastructure is aging and has not been spending adequate to repair, replace, or rehabilitate drinking water distribution systems. This develops higher stresses on the water distribution network causing pipes to crack, or rupture permanently while in service. Due to this problem, the whole water supply components in the distribution network led to increased water loss and quality reduction. The general objective of this study is to assess the risk of the water distribution system in the Bahir Dar Institute of technology water supply distribution system. In this study, a structural risk assessment was developed by using ARC GIS 10.5 and Water Cad V8i to get prioritize maps of the water distribution system and hydraulic analysis of the drinking water distribution system of the institute. In developing this assessment, the score was established based on the preset criteria to evaluate customer point risk and structural point risks such as water quality, water availability, pressure head adequacy, the flow rate of water, pipe, storage facility, and pump. Based on the result obtained from an equal weight approach, the score of the drinking water distribution system risk index is a medium level (2.56) with a low level of structural risk (2.5) and a medium level of consumer point risk (2.62). The results evaluated by the AHP method, structural risk has had the highest weight score (76%) which means it needs more priority than consumption point risk (24%), and the result of drinking water distribution system risk index laid at the medium level (2.7), it indicates the institution drinking water distribution system put at the satisfactory condition with the sum up the effect of medium structural risk index (2.65) and medium consumption point risk (2.82). Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the components of the campus water supply distribution system, particularly parts of the pipe and the majority of the pump, should be replaced before they become obsolete, and suitable preventive measures should be taken.

Impact of COVID-19 containment zone built-environments on students’ mental health and their coping mechanisms

The 2nd wave of COVID-19 in 2021 had put several higher educational institutions in India into complete lockdowns and some were converted into containment zones to prevent the further spread of infection. A study was conducted on a student population (N = 432) in one such institute campus across three different hostel complexes to understand the role of containment zone Built Environments in the prevalence of Anxiety and Depression. The results from the analysis revealed that students living in rooms which have access to qualitative Built Environment aspects such as quality window views overlooking greenery and sky in addition to presence of indoor plants and portrait/artworks, are at lower risk of depression and severity of anxiety. The linear regression results of Built Environment Variable (BEV) Score with CES-D and GAD-7 advocated for an inverted relationship. The multinomial logistic regression revealed that with each 1-unit increase in BEV Score there is a significant decrease of 1.3-unit of likelihood of Depression, 0.779, 0.712 and 0.614-unit decrease in the likelihood of mild, moderate and severe levels of anxiety respectively. For Adverse Effect on Productivity, a 1-unit increase in BEV Score increases the likelihood of No-effect on productivity by 1.277 units. In order to precisely predict the effect of individual aspects of University Campus Built environments on the mental health of students during such containment and quarantine situations, further multidisciplinary investigation is required on the spheres of Built Environment, Psychology, and Epidemiology.

Five selected accessions of Dendrocalamus strictus Roxb. were evaluated for gas exchange characteristics at Forest Research Institute Campus, Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Physiological attributes were monitored using LICOR 6400 Portable Photosynthetic system. Variations in Photosynthetic rate (A) which was maximum (11.54 μmol CO m -2 s -1 ) in accession of Uttarakhand while minimum in accession of Gujarat whereas transpiration rate (E) was maximum (5.88 m mol H 2O m -2 s -1 ) in accession of Uttar Pradesh and minimum in accession of Himachal Pradesh followed by Uttarakhand. The stomatal conductance to H 2 O (G s ) was maximum (0.18) in accession of Uttar Pradesh in consonance with maximum (294.05 μmol CO 2 mol -1 ) intercellular CO 2 (Ci) where transpiration (E) and vapour pressure deficit (VPD) were minimum in Uttarakhand accession. Instaneous water used efficiency (WUE ins ) was also maximum in accession of Uttarakhand coupled ins with maximum A and lower E. Among the various accessions, Uttarakhand depicted highest A coupled with high instaneous water use efficiency (WUE ins ), thus could be exploited for large scale planting with higher ins productivity.

First comparison of conventional activated sludge versus root-zone treatment for SARS-CoV-2 RNA removal from wastewaters: Statistical and temporal significance

In the initial pandemic phase, effluents from wastewater treatment facilities were reported mostly free from Severe Acute Respiratory Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA, and thus conventional wastewater treatments were generally considered effective. However, there is a lack of first-hand data on i) comparative efficacy of various treatment processes for SARS-CoV-2 RNA removal; and ii) temporal variations in the removal efficacy of a given treatment process in the backdrop of active COVID-19 cases. This work provides a comparative account of the removal efficacy of conventional activated sludge (CAS) and root zone treatments (RZT) based on weekly wastewater surveillance data, consisting of forty-four samples, during a two-month period. The average genome concentration was higher in the inlets of CAS-based wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in the Sargasan ward (1.25 × 103 copies/ L), than that of RZT-based WWTP (7.07 × 102 copies/ L) in an academic institution campus of Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. ORF 1ab and S genes appeared to be more sensitive to treatment i.e., significantly reduced (p < 0.05) than N genes (p > 0.05). CAS treatment exhibited better RNA removal efficacy (p = 0.014) than RZT (p = 0.032). Multivariate analyses suggested that the effective genome concentration should be calculated based on the presence/absence of multiple genes. The present study stresses that treated effluents are not always free from SARS-CoV-2 RNA, and the removal efficacy of a given WWTP is prone to exhibit temporal variability owing to variations in active COVID-19 cases in the vicinity and genetic material accumulation over the time. Disinfection seems less effective than the adsorption and coagulation processes for SARS-CoV-2 removal. Results stress the need for further research on mechanistic insight on SARS-CoV-2 removal through various treatment processes taking solid–liquid partitioning into account.

Learning Models in Sharia Economic Department in Forming Student Career Options in the Sharia Financial Industry

This study identifies a learning model in the sharia economics department in shaping student career choices in the sharia finance industry. This research was conducted at the State Islamic Institute Campus, Ponorogo East Java. This research was conducted because the number of workers in the sharia finance industry, especially those who have Islamic economic scientific competence, has decreased. On the other hand, conditions in the sharia financial industry and sharia financial institutions have developed quite rapidly. Likewise, interest in sharia economics at various Islamic religious universities continues to increase. This type of research uses descriptive research methods equipped with qualitative and quantitative data, both primary and secondary data. This study uses a Likert scale to determine the results of the study. The independent variable analysis uses Theory of Planned Behavior, while the dependent variable uses Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT). The purpose of this study is to determine the learning model in the Islamic economics department in shaping student career choices in the sharia finance industry. The results of this study indicate an increase in the number of sharia financial institutions, enthusiasts of the Islamic economics major after market demand and special attention from the government with its various incentive policies, but there is a decline in student career choices in the sharia finance industry. The conclusion of this study shows that the decline in student career choices in the sharia finance industry is caused by many factors. In order to provide solutions to the above problems, efforts to improve several designs or learning models on campus need to be improved and enhanced. The most dominant learning model with a percentage of 83.5% is the integration model of religious and general sciences. Next followed by the supervisory teacher motivation intensity model with a percentage of 86.4%.

Considering positionality: Responding ethically and teaching for social justice in the time of COVID-19

Undoubtedly, the global COVID-19 pandemic ruptured life as we knew it. Globally, citizens’ freedom of movement, socialization needs and economic activity ground to a halt as governments around the world introduced stringent measures in response to the ravaging spread of the virus. In South Africa, a national lockdown was announced in March 2020, and the campuses of institutions of higher learning became lifeless and barren. The aftermath of the pandemic will surely be a time of mourning when considering losses in terms of life and socio-economic well-being. Despite these devastating realities, this moment could also be one of promise and hope. Considering commonplace resistance to change, the pandemic is forcing leaders and citizens to reflect on habitual behaviour and decisions. This period in time could become a moment of true transformation that could meaningfully address matters of inequality and injustice. All sectors and industries have to think anew about operational matters, inclusive of the higher education sector. South African higher education residential institutions were not prepared for the sudden transition from face-to-face lecturing to online teaching; from invigilated examinations to take-home online assessment. Further, the South African educational landscape is marred with disparity between the previously disadvantaged and advantaged institutions. These remnant realties from the country’s apartheid past continue to find expression in signifiers of inequality and found poignant expression in measurables such as students’ access to devices, data and a conducive learning environment. This inequality, compounded by the current pandemic, warrants a particular response from the educator to ensure meaningful education continues. In this contribution, we argue that educators need to assume a different role and position, which demands more than merely transitioning to online teaching platforms. The time is now for the educator in becoming to lead vulnerably in the nurturing of confidence through connection and to demonstrate equality in teaching and learning.

A study on diversity and distribution of Ficus L. (Dicotyledonae: Moraceae) species at Forest Research Institute (FRI), Dehradun (Uttarakhand), India

Ficus L., commonly known as Fig, is a member of the family Moraceae (mulberry family) comprises 37 genera and approximately 1,100 species distributed in diverse ecosystems, especially in tropical and temperate regions of the world. The Ficus genus stands out as a keystone resource provider in many tropical forests, which is probably because of continuous non-seasonal fruiting in many species. It is one of the largest genera in the angiosperms about 750 species. The present study was carried out in the Forest Research Institute (FRI) campus, Dehradun (Uttarakhand), India. The phytodiversity of Ficus L. and their socio-economic values worked out during the investigation, religious-spiritual attachment, food of wild animals, ethnomedicinal and timber significance. There were 16 species of Ficus L. recorded from New Forest, FRI, Dehradun based on the morphological observations of taxonomically significant characteristics. The species found in FRI New Forest Dehradun were, Ficus benjamina, F. religiosa, F. racemosa, F. rumphii, F. retusa, F. krishnae, F. elastica, F. virens, F. semicordata, F. auriculata, F. hispida, F. pumila, F. palmata, F. drupacea, F. benghalensis, F. pomifera. Out of the notified 16 species of Ficus, 11 species were trees, 3 shrubs and 2 climbers in nature. The maximum leaf size (30×27cm2) was reported in F. auriculata, followed by F. semicordata (28×10cm2), F. benghalensis (25×11cm2). However, minimum leaf size was noticed in F. benjamina (4×2cm2) and F. retusa (4×3cm2). Among, 15 species, axillary fig (fruit) arrangement was observed, while one species (F. racemosa) has stem position of fruits. The current finding is itself a pioneer study to present a glimpse of such immense species diversity of single genera from sub-valley areas and will be a milestone for future studies in conservation and management of these wild varieties.

Tracking and Assessing Undergraduate Research Campus-wide: Demographics, Academic Success, and Post-Graduation Plans

Evaluation must occur at the university level to understand the full impact of undergraduate research (UR). UR assessment is often only completed at the individual program level because of limited technology, time, and/or resources. At our large research institution, we have been documenting a wide variety of research experiences annually since the 2009–2010 academic year through an online portal. With our institutional research team and campus partners, we created interactive dashboards that display involvement in UR by semester and academic year. Here we compile data on students involved in UR compared to the university population as a whole. Consistent trends from this yearly data have shown that non-STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) students, transfer students, and part-time students are less involved in research. However, underrepresented and first-generation involvement tends to trend consistently with the university population, likely because of a wide variety of focused programming. Despite many interventions aimed at engaging students in their first three years, data show that researchers remain mostly seniors. Students are also tracked to graduation and beyond, providing a unique evaluation of UR. Grade point averages and graduation rates tend to be higher for student researchers. Time to degree is similar between researchers and nonresearchers. Students are tracked into graduate school as well and on average have an almost 50% increase in matriculation compared to nonresearchers. There are still gaps in this university-level knowledge, but this portal helps clarify campus-wide involvement and opportunities for enhancement, while serving as a comparison data set and a model system for other universities.

Uji Kemiripan Kalimat Judul Tugas Akhir dengan Metode Cosine Similarity dan Pembobotan TF-IDF

Deli Husada Health Institute is a health campus that has been established for 34 years, currently it has 30000 students, each student at the final level will submit a final project of study program every year, each student before doing his final project report must provide the title of an assignment report. Finally, to the study program, to reduce the level of similarity in the title of the student's final report, the study program usually conducts a manual check, the result that appears is that it is not effective in determining the title of the final project for students, so that it creates quite a lot of similarities between students.
