In an effort to promote global communication and the exchange of ideas, a number of American universities are partnering with international institutions. These initiatives are often designed to encourage creativity among international peers and increase diversity on campuses.
For example, the University of Michigan Medical School recently announced that it has joined with the Peking University Health Science Center in an effort to promote research in pulmonary, cardiovascular and liver diseases. The collaboration will include exchanges of faculty, medical residents, fellows and other researchers for large-scale clinical trials.
"This is evidence of the University of Michigan Medical School's intention to have a global impact on the way physicians are trained, and to be leaders in cutting-edge research that can solve the medical problems of our world," said Joseph Kolars, senior associate dean for Education and Global Initiatives.
The joint institute will provide programs that support projects, including human subjects protection, tissue repositories and biomedical informatics, as well as research on the science of collaboration.
The University of Michigan was ranked sixth in the world for its impact on clinical medicine based on scientific studies in a 2009 ranking from the Higher Education Evaluation and Accreditation Council of Taiwan.
