SUMS International Contracts and MOUs

 

What is a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)?

A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is a legal document describing a
bilateral agreement between two or more parties. It expresses a
convergence of will between the parties, indicating an intended common
line of action, rather than a legal commitment. MOUs are not legally
enforceable in a court of law or by some other legal process.

What is a Contract?

A contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties
that creates an obligation to do or not do a particular thing. 

Agreement Types

*	Research Collaboration
*	Faculty Exchange
*	Student Exchange
*	Joint and Dual Degree Programs
*	Clinical or Practicum Rotations Abroad
*	Distance Education
*	Seminar or Certificate Program
*	Clinical Trial Agreement
