Expand Your Partnership Engagement

The University of Pittsburgh values its many partnerships greatly and is committed to ensuring that all collaborations are positive, impactful, and mutually beneficial.

Pitt has been fortunate to form strong bonds with diverse partners working on both focused individual collaborative projects as well as large, multidimensional partnerships that span numerous schools and departments. No matter the current scale of collaboration, Pitt is always excited to connect with our trusted partners to nurture and grow these relationships and collaboration opportunities.

In order to facilitate these conversations, Pitt created a dedicated Global Partnerships team. This dedicated staff supports:

• Development and/or sunsetting of formal collaboration agreements
• Strategic analysis of potential growth of partner relationships
• Identification of potential alignment between Pitt and partner objectives and expertise
• Welcoming and/or providing resources to colleagues for welcoming our partners to campus for in-person delegation visits
• Reporting on partner engagement efforts to Pitt senior leadership, faculty, and staff engaged in global collaboration to offer a holistic view of Pitt's greater global engagement initiatives
