The 蘑菇视频 connects Washington to the world and brings the world to Washington, creating opportunities for our students, our region and our state. In the Pacific Northwest, we innovate through collaboration. This unique spirit of innovation is apparent in the 蘑菇视频鈥檚 strategy for global engagement.
Rather than establishing 蘑菇视频 outposts overseas, we forge lasting partnerships with universities, business firms, foundations, non-profits and government agencies overseas. We work across boundaries of discipline and distance. We link partners in Spokane and Shanghai, in Seattle and S茫o Paulo. We create cross-continent collaborations that help us better understand and address the world鈥檚 most challenging problems, for a world of good.
The 蘑菇视频鈥檚 long-standing and growing connections with Chinese institutions give our students the global experiences they need to succeed in our modern economy, build relationships with partners and leaders in East Asia, and attract entrepreneurs and investment to Washington state. The Global Innovation Exchange (GIX) – our pathbreaking partnership with Tsinghua University, supported by Microsoft – is one great example of how lasting partnerships with Chinese institutions benefit 蘑菇视频 students and our region.
The 蘑菇视频鈥檚 visit to China this November is a celebration of our unique spirit of innovation and deepening trans-Pacific ties. Please follow along to learn more about 蘑菇视频 partnerships in China and groundbreaking research, meet international alumni and friends, and cheer for the Husky men鈥檚 basketball team!
All the best,
Jeff Riedinger
Vice Provost for Global Affairs
