He went on to mention that: "With the launch of this center, AUT can work very strongly in this field because the university has a supercomputer and is also seeking to design and create a second supercomputer."
AUT president said: "The incident was a tragic accident for all Iranians and many of the people on board were students studying abroad, so this incident was extremely damaging to the country.”
He further mentioned that: “Since the accident, the university administration tried to actively deal with the incident and sympathize with families of the victims of the incident, and we participated in the funeral and mourning ceremonies of the university's graduates who died in the accident.
