Partnerships
Making Connections
Research is often rooted in partnerships, whether it’s between two colleagues working together on a project or a complex effort involving multiple postsecondary institutions, different levels of government, industry partners, civil society organizations and public bodies such as school or health boards. Partnerships can connect people across the street or across multiple countries and international organizations.
To approach complex problems and intellectual challenges in meaningful ways, 51成人福利网 researchers participate in many partnerships varying in size, complexity, field of study and purpose. However, they have one thing in common: the understanding that accomplishing great things and having a positive impact on the world requires people to work together.
