Damascus – SANA
The University of Damascus opened its Innovation and Development Exhibition 2025 on Monday at the Rida Said Conference Hall, featuring 40 student inventions from undergraduate and postgraduate participants.
The event aims to foster research skills and promote innovation in fields that support Syria’s reconstruction and development.
Organized by the Directorate of Scientific Research and Postgraduate Studies in collaboration with the International Team for Invention and Development Science, the exhibition showcases projects in medicine, engineering, agriculture, architecture, biosciences, and recycling.
These inventions are the result of a five-month training program.
Among the highlights are a smart ambulance designed to stabilize stroke patients during transport, and a device that recycles water vapor into sterilized reusable water, potentially saving millions of cubic meters annually.
A parallel exhibition titled “Syrian Innovations Under Fire” presents creative solutions developed during wartime and siege conditions, reflecting the resilience and ingenuity of Syrian inventors.
The initiative is part of the university’s broader mission to promote a culture of innovation, empower young talents, and enhance its academic reputation.
