The primary focus of OID is to facilitate collaborative research efforts and develop multi-disciplinary projects. Since its inception in January 2000, OID has worked with faculty members and graduate students across campus to help advance MSU as a leader in collaborative international development activities. OID strives to bridge the gaps between MSU's various colleges and departments, combining MSU's strengths in collaboration with colleagues throughout the world. OID uses its knowledge of the many international involvements of MSU's faculty and markets MSU's strengths internationally so that teams of qualified individuals can assemble rapidly in response to viable opportunities. OID serves all fifteen Colleges and Units across MSU's campus with an emphasis on cross-disciplinary projects with faculty from the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, the College of Veterinary Medicine and the College of Social Science, and the affiliated Centers and Institutes of International Studies and Programs.
