Stages of Collaboration | PIME III

PIME III
For the next stage of collaboration UMF and TAM has elaborated three-year multi-faceted project (2002-2005). Complementing previous and concurrent collaboration, the project extends, expands, and intensifies UMF/TAM partnership activities. Project goals and objectives will be achieved through five interrelated initiatives:

1) Engaging UMF and TAM faculty in joint online course/curriculum development and delivery to expand the Western business content of TAM curricula and enhance the international perspectives of faculty and students at both institutions;

2) Conducting annual summer faculty workshops to assess and improve courses and curriculum, systematically develop faculty expertise in online pedagogy and technology, and foster faculty collaboration on consulting and research projects;

3) Offering a select number of TAM student internships in the United States with Western organizations whose operations exemplify best practices;

4) Supporting TAM in its pursuit of AACSB International accreditation;

5) Developing private sector funding to sustain continuing collaborative activities.
