International Partnerships
Â鶹´«Ã½ has a long history of collaborating internationally. Our partners include universities, institutions of higher education, governmental agencies, non-governmental agencies, and private sector companies. The most successful and active partnerships typically are a result of one or two committed faculty members from each institution who coordinate and promote the collaboration among their peers and students.
