Therefore the next group we’d like to discuss is: University Professors
![Page 4: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
University faculty members have an especially important role to play in the
rollout of New Energy
![Page 5: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
And it’s going to be one of the most mind-expanding, rewarding, and enjoyable
professional rides academia could ever take
![Page 6: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Future generations will look back on this time as a time when the universities re-invigorated their mission to serve the public good and fulfill their
role as the brain trust of society
![Page 7: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
As a university faculty member, you can form research teams with your colleagues and graduate students
![Page 8: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
And in many cases, get undergraduates to contribute as well
![Page 9: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Use these teams to translate scientific literature in New Energy into Vietnamese
![Page 10: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Your translations can be used as teaching materials at your own university, and also disseminated within the wider scientific
community in Vietnam
![Page 11: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
You can also use your research groups to design and build New Energy applications
![Page 12: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Once you’ve assembled a research team, apply for grant money
• From your university• From private foundations• From investors and corporations• From NGOs
![Page 13: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
We all know that university faculty salaries are quite low
• Working on New Energy projects for corporate and government clients can give you and your university an extra income stream
![Page 14: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Collaborate, collaborate, collaborate!
• Both inside Vietnam and abroad• New Energy research is like solving a puzzle• Each researcher has certain pieces, but you
have to assemble all the pieces together to solve the puzzle
![Page 15: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Organize colloquia & conferences
• These can be small weekly or monthly meetings at your university
• They don’t need to cost much money – you just need to reserve a conference room and get your colleagues to attend
![Page 16: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Publish the scientific reports from those colloquia and conferences on your university’s web site
![Page 17: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Science journalists and New Energy bloggers will help to disseminate that information
![Page 18: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Perhaps more important than
anything else, doing New Energy research
will give you a way of benefitting your community, your country, and our
planet
![Page 19: What Professors and Teachers can do for New Energy](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e9497b4c90526358b5058/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Surely this feels much better than using one’s talents to assist Old Energy companies in destroying
the environment, or helping industrialized food companies poison our families’ meals with new
chemical seasonings and preservatives

Just as students work under the supervision of their professors, the professors work under the guidance of university leaders
