Creating New Partnerships

Do you have a colleague at an international institution with whom you would like to collaborate?  Are you interested in international research?  Do you have ideas to help USA become more globally engaged?  Consider working with Global USA to develop new international partnerships!

Global USA, in conjunction with academic departments and the University Attorney, will facilitate the process of reviewing and approving international agreements.  If you are interested in developing an international agreement or partnership, please contact Global USA for more information. 

Memorandums of Understanding

International partnerships may be codified through a number of institutional agreements, but usually start with a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or a broad agreement in which USA and a partner institution express an intention to engage in cooperative academic or research activities.  To help facilitate the creation of MOUs, Global USA has created a standard MOU and Intellectual Property Addendum.  Please note that all agreements, including standardized agreements, should be delivered to Global USA before requesting approvals from the University Attorney.

Other Agreements

For faculty and staff looking to develop other types of partnerships or expand on existing MOUs, please schedule to meet with Global USA so we can best assist the development of your partnership.
