International Agreements

Partnerships between UNH and foreign institutions often take the form of an International Memorandum of Understanding (IMOU). An IMOU is a binding, legal contract formalizing terms of collaboration between the University of New Hampshire and one or more international institutions. The types of agreements may include (but are not limited to) general friendship and cooperation, reciprocal student exchange, study abroad, faculty/staff/specialist exchange, research collaboration, and/or technical assistance. USNH legal counsel has reviewed and approved several IMOU templates. The following IMOUs focus on students. To view these templates, click on the appropriate link below or contact UNH Global:
