Research Partnerships

Tubman University's local, national and international research collaborations — from agricultural innovation in Maryland County to blockchain research with partners in Côte d'Ivoire.

Partnerships are essential to advancing our research mission. We are actively building local, national and international collaborations.

International partnerships

We are establishing relationships with institutions such as the Centre National de Recherche Agronomique (CNRA) and the École Supérieure Africaine des Technologies de l'Information et des Télécommunications (ESATIC) in Côte d'Ivoire, which is recognised as a centre of excellence by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

These partnerships explore cutting-edge fields including blockchain technology. We also work with Koba, a blockchain company involved with Cardano, to develop this area of research further.

Local collaborations

We hold strong partnerships with the Cavalla Rubber Company (CRC) and the Maryland Oil Palm Plantation (MOPP), which have supported the creation of research centres focused on agricultural innovation and sustainability.

The local community has contributed several hundred hectares of land for agroforestry and sustainable agriculture research, reinforcing the University's connection to the region's development.

Educational infrastructure

The College of Education is equipped with modern classrooms including interactive whiteboards, allowing students to engage with current educational technologies. The College of Business and Administration prepares students with the practical skills needed to lead in their fields.

Technology & employment support

Orange has contributed computer laboratories to enhance the University's IT infrastructure, while the Ministry of Security assists graduates in securing employment, easing the transition from education into the workforce.

Opening a partnership conversation

Tubman University welcomes approaches from universities, research institutes, government agencies, NGOs and industry.

Areas of particular strength are agriculture and food security, public and community health, engineering for coastal infrastructure, and teacher education.

Content needed

Name the office and person who handles partnership enquiries, with a direct email address, and state what a first approach should include (scope, funding, duration). At present a prospective international partner has no route in other than the general enquiry address. (Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs)
