Taking Nottingham on the road and around the globe

The University of Nottingham will reveal its shop window to the world when it embarks on the first in a series of global roadshows showcasing opportunities for international partnership and collaboration next week. The events in Malaysia, Vietnam and India will mark the launch of the Nottingham Global Network, bringing together the University's institutional partners around the world currently working together for mutual benefit in the areas of research, internationalisation, student experience and business engagement. Professor Christine Ennew, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Internationalisation at The University of Nottingham, said: "In higher education, as in other sectors, formalised institution-wide partnerships are underpinned by the idea that in certain areas, we can achieve more together than we can do individually. Partnerships require investment in both time and other resources to build but in the longer term have the potential to offer significant benefits. "The kind of collaboration that Nottingham has developed with a network of universities globally enables each partner to bring forward individual and complementary assets. These may include students, curriculum and teaching and research expertise. There are also benefits in terms of cost-sharing and efficiencies.
