Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
Overview
A memorandum of understanding (MOU) is an agreement between two or more parties/institutions. MOUs are not legally binding, but serve to document each collaborator’s expectations or intentions. The Office of Regulatory Affairs and Research Compliance is responsible for reviewing, negotiating and approving the draft MOU before final approval by the Dean. To request an MOU with Harvard Chan School, contact Alyssa Speier.
