International Collaboration Footprint, 2023

U-M schools and colleges engage in many different types of international collaboration, including student exchanges, joint academic programs, visiting scholars, international visitors, and more. Further, individual U-M faculty researchers collaborate with partners around the world through both funded and unfunded projects. Funded projects represent collaborations sponsored by international sources. Unfunded projects represent those for which funding does not come from sponsors, but international collaboration is occurring.

* In addition to the above data, there are five multi-national agreements.
