IUPUI expands educational reach to Kenya and beyond
The partnership that Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis is starting with Moi University in Kenya will blaze a new path toward international education for the 21st century.
This partnership will have a profound impact on students and faculty at IUPUI as well as the Central Indiana community.
The IUPUI-Moi strategic agreement, signed last Wednesday in Eldoret, Kenya, is the first of several strategic partnerships IUPUI expects to develop in key locations around the world, including Mexico, India, China and Europe.
The IUPUI-Moi agreement builds upon a partnership begun in 1989 between the IU School of Medicine and Moi that has developed into what has been described as the most comprehensive HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention program in Africa.
