2nd Strategic Partnership Symposium
— How to deepen the partnership in various aspects

 
The University of Tokyo proposed the “Building a Network of ‘Strategic Partnerships’ to Strengthen International Competitiveness among Japanese Universities” as a project for the Japan Forum for Internationalization of Universities and plan to widely disseminate information by sharing the challenges and good practices with other universities through the enhancement of horizontal cooperation. Through this project, the universities plan to enhance the recognition of Strategic Partnerships and the international presence of the universities of Japan.
This year's symposium will provide an opportunity to think how to deepen the Strategic Partnerships in various aspects including exchange of people with different functions such as researchers, students or non-academic staff, or synergy between bilateral partnerships and other alliances, consortia and networks of higher education institutes.
