New Delhi [India], Sep 8 (ANI-NewsVoir): GLA University, one of the leading University in UP has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Jacksonville State University, Albama, USA. The MoU will remain in effect for a period of five years.

The aim of the MoU is to facilitate co-operation between the universities and collaborate in areas of student-faculty exchange, research collaboration, summer training, credit transfer, guest lectures and other related exercises. As per the MoU, faculty members and students of GLA University, Mathura would visit Jacksonville University for academic purposes as well as students of Jacksonville University would be visiting GLA for taking up courses in literature, music, culture and spiritualism.

"International education and collaborations of this type promote knowledge exchange between global communities and enhances our student's transformative educational experience.

This collaboration will bring Indian and USA youth together for broad exchange of views and opinions, and also help mold our future leaders," said John M Biehler, President, Jacksonville State University.
