The UO is deeply committed to:

• Ensuring an open flow of ideas and research partnerships
• Providing a welcoming environment for students and faculty from around the globe
• Developing opportunities for our students and faculty to discover the world

Over the past several years, Congress and numerous federal agencies have raised concerns about inappropriate foreign influence on research conducted at U.S. universities. 

The UO remains steadfast in its commitment to international collaboration while also complying with the changing landscape of federal regulations. Ultimately, these regulations help our research and scholarship to be truly open and free from bias or undue influence.
