Attacks from sources outside nato for some time now. Sort of established quite capability in dealing with that. We will leave this here to take you live now to the u. S. Senate where today lawmakers are expected to vote to limit debate on judicial nominations. Later this week lawmakers will also take up a measure that would fund the federal Aviation Administration for the next five years. Live coverage of the u. S. Senate here on cspan2. The presiding officer the senate will come to order. The chaplain, dr. Barry black, will lead the senate in prayer. The chaplain let us pray. Eternal god, we exalt you, for you continue to rescue us. You have done for our nation infinitely more than we can ask or imagine. Lord, you refuse to permit our enemies to triumph over us. You hear our cries for help, sustaining us with your might. Today, continue to use our lawmakers for your glory. As they become aware of your presence, may their lives experience the fulfillment and strength that you alone can
Running out of legal time, but we ourselves are with the Cultural Revolution Council. We sat down and came to the conclusion that we will carry out some reforms. It is logical to say that we will accept it because the law itself is what exists, so that it does not go against that law. In fact, this is what we have in mind. God willing, i hope that this issue can be solved. In fact , now you can calculate 600 thousand. The students who are behind the exam this year are facing all public exams not having studied is just a test to say that on the specialized day of each field, as a test, you tell this student who has planned to go sit down and read 14 general books. 1 year, 2 years, 4 years behind the Entrance Exam, they believe that no, the general public knows well , let them express this, they are pressuring, those 600 people are pressuring that no, we dont want it, why do you want to return it, there was a sign that we are not ready and the president informed us that in this country,
Not equate Higher Education with the ministry of science. Your statement is correct. What is the number of students in the countrys Higher Education . Ministry of health, which is not subordinate to the ministry of science therefore, the student population of Higher Education in the country is 3 million and about 240 thousand students, of these 3 million and 240 thousand students, about 1 million and 20 to 30 percent of them are islamic azad university. Specialized such as Sharif University, Community Universities such as Tehran University and National Universities such as technical Vocational University , applied scientific university, Payam Noor University , our population is about one and a half million here. The rest is divided between universities affiliated to the executive branch and 1. 1 million 200 thousand universities the number of people can be up to 3 million 200. There are approximately 500 ministries of science in the executive bodies of the highaltitude core. Yes, the m
It takes up more room than the actual article itself. Want to introduce the subject of this next session which is this booklet here. Its called transform which is very beautiful and its about an initiative that we were privileged to fund called exploring innovation frontier. I want to give a shout out to promote the head of our engineering director at the time a few years ago when we made the decision to fund this. He has gone on to uc irvine where he is a vice chancellor for research. During this time there have been several workshops around the country and ill say a few words about that and then you will hear from two of the people that were greatly involved in those workshops more about this. Let me make now that ive kind of introduced the subject of basic research, leading to innovation and leading to engineering applications, let me make some formal remarks. I will just begin with the quote from our inspiration of the National Science foundation who believed that there must be a s
More now from the National Competitiveness forum with the focus on Public Private partnerships and manufacturing. This is an hour and a half. Good morning, everyone. Its great to be back with the council again. So i only have half a voice, im afraid. I left the other half in stockholm a couple days ago. I was very privileged to get to attend the nobel prize ceremonies because the National Science association supported the 3 physicists that won the prize for Gravitational Waves for 40 years. I think thats a good place to start. [ applause ] its good for all of us to appreciate just what a high risk high reward investment is all about. So that was a progress of technology and super duper engineering challenges that had to be overcome. A lot of people, as you might guess, came and went. It involved multidisciplinary teams of people who did the numerical relativity using Super Computers so we actually knew when the first gravitational wave was detected, what the source was, that it was two
