Proposals for new international agreements should be discussed at the outset with Elizabeth Angerman and the international liaison of the initiating college. The steps for establishing a new agreement should be reviewed so you are familiar with the process.
If you are considering an international collaboration but do not yet have a partner institution, there is value in starting with an institution with which Ohio State already has a relationship. Alternately, if you have an international partner, use the international search engine to see if others at Ohio State also have agreements with this institution.
If you would like to partner with an institution, you can click on the “create proposal” button to start the process on any of the institutional agreement pages, or on the search engine landing page by clicking on the “Log In” button in the top right corner of the page, or just below the map by clicking on “create new agreement proposal.” You will be asked to log in with your name.# and password.
