Global Partnership toolbox
Find out about our Global Partnership toolbox – designed to help staff explore and create successful international university-to-university partnerships.
How we support our staff
International university partnerships provide a range of opportunities, including:
- opening up new avenues for research
- enhancing our cultural awareness
- study abroad experiences and staff exchanges
- new taught programmes combining partner’s strengths.
Developing successful relationships can often take time. They rely on our understanding of the culture and goals of each other’s institutions, and ensuring compatibility in terms of strategy, capacity, ethics and standards.
We help staff by:
- defining proposals and conducting an appropriate level of due diligence
- directing those looking to undertake specific activities to appropriate support
- coordinating institutional level agreements
- monitoring and reporting on our institutional international partnerships activities.
Our toolbox
Our toolbox includes guidance on:
- defining your partnership
- establishing agreements
- getting approval for your proposal
- setting up a memorandum of understanding (MoU)
- managing relationships, risk management and periodic reviews
- transnational education (TNE).
