The University of Toronto is proud to partner with exceptional institutions and organizations across the world. The Office of the Vice-President, International, develops strategic institutional partnerships, supports corporations globally, and coordinates visits from institution-wide, international delegations within the higher education and learning sectors.
We employ iteratively developed regional strategies for partnership development, recognizing that partnerships in various regions around the world require different levels and types of resources, new and flexible approaches to research and teaching, and the prioritization of specific subjects and values. Our diverse partnerships are shaped around shared values and mutually agreed-upon areas of interest. They are reciprocal in nature and always have as a goal to generate mutual benefits, and to contribute to positive impact.
For corporations seeking academic expertise or access to top talent, groundbreaking research, or innovative start-ups, Blue Door is the single point of entry for organizations wishing to work with the University of Toronto.
The Office of International Relations coordinates the visits of delegation from international institutions of research and higher learning. Our office focuses on delegations that have university-wide scope and are consistent with our international strategic framework.
