Liaison Offices of German Universities in North America
German universities have started an initiative to more effectively build partnerships with North American institutions of higher education and to directly connect with American students and scientists. Several consortia, representing more than 35 renowned individual German universities and universities of applied sciences, have opened liaison offices in New York to expand and deepen academic exchange between the two countries. The liaison offices (Verbindungsbüros) were inaugurated in Spring 2005 with the support of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and are located within the building of the German Consulate General in New York City.
