, however, it was critical that a key PhDgraduate (co-author Burgher) be involved from the PEER’s inception to her realize criticalaspects in developing an international partnership. While Burgher and Van Wie were inWashington, DC with a contingent there as part of an IGERT training program they visited a keyNSF program officer, he himself from Africa, who was serving in the Division of UndergraduateEducation and also as a link to NSF’s Office of International Science and Engineering program.This bridging was critical to success of the project to both show commitment and availability ofpersonnel and to help the graduate student begin to understand the nature of building aninternational collaboration. In addition aspects of the project involve
