International partnerships can be entered into at university or department level. The International Office has standard agreements which can be used for various forms of cooperation with foreign partners. These standard agreements are designed to provide assistance in negotiations with foreign partners, and individual parts can be adapted to each situation as required. Drafts provided by partner universities can also be used.
