"We are a technological university, but we should also be concerned with key humanistic categories," said Carbonell, assistant professor of English at NYIT-Bahrain.
Titled "Transforming Human Nature in Science, Technology, and the Arts," the three-day event gathered 50 scholars at Dublin City University in Ireland. Experts from 25 universities including Oxford University, University of Exeter, George Washington University, England's Open University, and NYIT presented on disciplines ranging from philosophy to literature and neuroscience.

Amid singing and dancing, NYIT students and alumni volunteered their time to mark today’s opening of a new hospital building for the elderly in Muharraq, Bahrain.
The volunteers helped distribute food and water to the elderly, who were excited about the visit, according to NYIT-Bahrain Associate Director of Alumni and Employer Relations Amal al-Dallal. “It’s not everday that the elderly get visits like this,” she explained.
In addition, as local school children were invited to draw the patients living in the hospital, NYIT volunteers assisted the young artists with their task and provided them with gifts at the event’s conclusion.
