Developing cooperation with Georgia Southern University (USA) within the International Credit Mobility Erasmus+ project

At the beginning of May, the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences (University of South Bohemia) hosted three representatives from Georgia Southern University (USA): Dr. Keith Belcher – a specialist in Medical Laboratory Science, Dr. Catherine Gilbert – a School of Nursing director, and Dr. James L. Karnes – an associate professor in Physiotherapy. During the five day program, they were acquainted not only with the curricula of the relevant study programs offered by the Faculty, but also with a system of providing professional practices, and possibilities of joint research. At the same time, they also had an opportunity to visit selected clinical workplaces of the Faculty, where they were able to see how the organizations cooperate with the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences. During the joint discussions, various possibilities for student and teacher exchanges were discussed, as well as research project opportunities.
