Universities UK, the representative organisation for universities in the United Kingdom, has recently published a Guide to UK Higher Education and Partnerships for Overseas Universities. The guide serves as a starting point for overseas institutions interested in establishing collaborations with UK higher education institutions.
The guide is aimed at staff working in universities around the world interested in collaborating with the UK, as well as UK university staff looking to attract new partners. Features include a summary of various types of research collaborations and key issues to consider such as visa and immigration laws and the legal regulation of partnerships.
