MSU social work faculty signs first int’l MoU
Students from MS University’s social work faculty will now get a chance to explore global social practises, with the faculty joining hands with a university in United Kingdom. In its first international pact, the faculty will collaborate for an exchange programme with Huddersfield University (HU).
As per the memorandum of understanding (MoU), signed between MSU and HU on Wednesday, the collaboration will be for three years during which teachers and students from social work faculty will visit HU to learn practises in UK and vice versa.
Students will stay for a period of 10 days. They will only have to bear the air fare with the host university bearing their other expenditure. The MoU was signed by MSU vice-chancellor Ramesh Goyal and Jan Firth, associate dean for planning and development in HU.
“This programme will help the varsity and faculty to understand various social policies and services in the area of social development. It will also pave way for regular exchange of ideas, thoughts and trends,” said dean of social work professor Aruna Khasgiwala.
“This exchange programme will also give us a platform to share our social set-ups. At the same time, we will get fresh ideas which can be implemented back home. A group of students will go to UK every year,” added dean of students and head of social work department professor M N Parmar.
