Voicing the university's keenness to strengthen joint cooperation prospects with the US Embassy, Massad said this effort would secure opportunities for academic, scientific, and research engagements with US universities and educational institutions across various fields.

Massad referred to the university's interest in enhancing cooperation with American educational authorities, given Jordanian students' "constant" quest to complete their academic studies in prestigious US universities.

He also highlighted the university's readiness to receive US students wishing to learn the Arabic language.

Wooster, for his part, said the embassy is keen to strengthen cooperation between the two countries in many fields, primarily on scientific, academic and cultural areas.

Cooperation with the university would provide opportunities for its students and faculty members to obtain scholarships to complete their academic studies, Wooster said.

The envoy also stressed the possibility of joint cooperation in implementing a range of cultural and language-based activities inside the university campus.
